Upon reaching the town which the palace overlooks, Snow White is shocked to see the people's conditions. Meanwhile, to solve her financial problems, the Queen plans to marry Prince Alcott, who has come to visit from a wealthy kingdom. She throws a ball in honor of the Prince.

My opinion
 
''Mirror Mirror'' is a beautiful movie- with very nice acting, music... everything in this film is charming. However, in spite of such brilliant materials, I didn't like this movie very much. However, I didn't dislike this movie... What I disliked was that there are some very much mentionable differences  from the fairytale ''Snow White''. 

Therefore, in conclusion I would like to say that as an adaptation of Snow White, this movie is not very good; however, as a movie, it is okay! It has excellent music, and, an excellent cast who act very well. It's a good family movies, excellent for especially children. Lily Collins, Armie Hammer, and Julia Roberts give very excellent performances. 

But overall, this movie is difficult to comment: in short, it was okay, but was not a very satisfying movie.  

2 out of 5.
