Huntsman Winter's War review

Everyone hated Kristen Stewart, I mean Snow White and the Huntmans, because Kristen Stewart was in it. No Kristen Stewart, so how does it fair?
The productions are there, but it does seem to be a cheaper movie than SWATH, (Snow White and the Huntsman.)

The film goes into the backstory of the Huntsman and his wife, although the wife is alive in the end, so where does that lead for Snow White?
So yeah, you sort've have to ignore it if you're hoping it for true canon to the first film, which everyone apparently hated cuz of Kristen Stewart anyway, so who cares?
The Huntsman isn't even on Queen Charlize's side in the end anyway.
Also Nick Frost has already joined his side as one of the 7, I mean 2 Dwarves.
There's a big cast of extras, costume design and special effects are great.
Emily Blunt really immerses herself in the role of the Snow Queen. She seemed to have a lot of fun in the role. Early Actress of the Year nom?

The Snow effects are really good. I wonder if there was a reference to Frozen in there.
The backstory for the , but the fight between the Queens is rather anticlimactic.
There's a bunch of A-listers here: Charlize Theron and Thor return, Jessica Chastain as Thor's wife, Emily Blunt as the Snow Queen.
Also, Snow White, Snow Queen?

Beauty and Youth are sought, but are taken by the Queens. But the Queens are sorta barely in the film to begin with, so it just comes off as a cheap version of the original film's premise.
