"Mirror mirror on the wall… what went wrong with it all?" Fans roast ‘Snow White’ after its Rotten Tomatoes score disappoints

The Rotten Tomatoes score for the live-action Snow White is in. At the time of publishing, the film has an average rating of 48% from 96 critic reviews, all of which are, well, disappointing to say the least. The score makes it one of the lowest-ranked adaptations in Disney’s history.

In terms of poor reception, it is so far placed just above Pinocchio (27%) and 101 Dalmatians (39%).

Most of the negative criticism is aimed at Gal Gadot’s Evil Queen and what is being seen as an unsatisfactory CGI depiction of the dwarfs. On the other hand, some critics have praised Rachel Zegler’s Snow White.

Nick Schager from The Daily Beast writes:

“No Magic Mirror is needed to identify it as the lamest Mouse House re-do of them all.”

Kristen Lopez from The Film Maven stated:

“Snow White has been so cleansed of anything that would offend, it also lacks anything that would make it memorable.”

David Fear from Rolling Stone says:

“The movie does earn points as a bedtime story, however, because it will definitely put you to sleep.”

Even as the critic reviews begin to pour in, social media users are not far behind either, in expressing their opinions. Given that the movie is scheduled to be released on March 21, 2025, many fans are already preparing for disappointment.

Meanwhile, the Rotten Tomatoes score has only exacerbated the already worse situation for Disney.

Fans are roasting the film in every possible way. At this point, Snow White is so burnt that the box office numbers probably wouldn’t be able to deliver the much-needed respite.

Some fans poked fun at Disney, stating that it has essentially made a business of taking wonderful classics and ruining them for fans.

Gal Gadot has ended up catching strays the most, with social media fans and critics alike deeming her casting as the Evil Queen an outright misfire.
