Dear Disney, not every classic needs a remake

Disney's live-action Snow White has been making headlines long before its release.

- Samarth Goyal

Now that it has arrived, the question remains—was the discussion worth it? Short answer: not really.

The film follows Snow White (Rachel Zegler), a princess born to kind-hearted parents. After her mother's tragic death, her father remarries a beautiful but vain woman (Gal Gadot), who soon takes control of the throne. When her magical mirror informs her that Snow White is "the fairest of them all," she orders her stepdaughter's death. Snow White escapes into the enchanted forest, where she encounters a band of rebels led by Jonathan (Andrew Burnap) and, separately, a group of CGI dwarves. As she fights for survival, she discovers her inner strength to reclaim her rightful place.
