While watching this, I kept thinking "wow, are they all ugly, etc.", and figured they must be setting up a handsome Prince Charming character. Nope. So I guess the point she was liberated, and didn't need a prince charming. When you're telling a tale of a liberated woman making conquest, and she's very attractive, you'd think that here conquest would be more than the homely, the awkward, the old. If you're trying to make it look like she's appealing to ALL men, then you need a better group. Add if they really wanted to update it, why are all the "dwarves" men anyway? Even with better casting of the "dwarves", this wouldn't have been a great movie. However, there was enough, with this lead actress and a bit better script, to make this an entertaining spin of the classic (for adults only). The one standout is the still attractive Isabelle Huppert. Her turn as the evil Stepmother (evil Queen) is the highlight of the film.

A liked the scenery and the story. At the end, Claire lays all in white... is she dead?

A nice girl is jogging on a city bridge in daylight when a car stops in front of her & someone gets out & grabs her & stuffs her in their trunk. Dumb & not believable; furthering the far fetched she is driven to some mysterious remote area where she escapes & as always despite being a good runner while quickly escaping through remote woods the abductor still finds her & then confusingly & unexplained someone shoots the abductor & then somehow takes the escaped girl into a remote house where for some unexplained reason she suddenly wants to stay. Later, gets tossed over a cliff from a moving car, but ends up in a hospital with no marks & still perfect makeup. Dead or alive who cares!

Remembering the first runs of masterpieces from the likes of Cocteau, Buñuel, and Polanski, I welcome seeing their Surrealist tradition carried on. Perhaps younger audiences sense this film offending against wokeness somehow., and won't grant themselves permission to like it. (It does call to mind a famous 1995 * version of Snow White.) This droll send-up does not disappoint at all.

My wife and I enjoyed this modern and artistic retelling of the classic fairy tale. Lou de Laâge is vivacious, young and beautiful as Snow White. Isabelle Huppert was believable as the wicked step mother. The dwarfs were sexual conquests for Snow. Great idea. Would love to see more from these writers and director Anne Fontaine: Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, etc.

Always liked to see or read modern version of old tales.I expect mystery,playfulness,humour,surprise... Thé idea of a modern Snow White,thé begining on the pure beautiful face of Lou de Laage in contrast with thé classic and somehow desperate elegance of Isabelle Huppert,seemed promising. What a disappointement !!The only thing that keeps going is a Snow White asserting her freedom in non convincing sex -scenes,with men that have to seem lost and inconsistent in ordre to satisfy a bad-feminist cliché.(so sorry for Poelveerde that does his best to save his dwarf charecter that is realy funny). Not to mention thé wonderful Isabelle Huppert that can not express any real « step-mother feelings » because thé scenario is so poor and thé directing so linear. Sorry to say but this modern story is just a set of old cliches.

Great movie. First what I've said, after I finished watchig, was: "It's like a choleretic agent, but for a someone's soul".

Everybody knows the tale, and some writer have made wonderful work with it: Some innovative, some sweet, some captivating... This version has nothing to bring to us. There are formidable actors like Vincent Macaigne, Benoît Poelvoorde (this two reach are the only good work about the movie) and Isabelle Huppert (she couldn't do much I think since her role is without any emotion or extravagance), and the director fault in creating something. The only thing that kept me seeing the movie till the end is the actress Lou de Laâge, not for her work that was poorly executed (maybe because of the director, I don't know), but because of her naked (I'm a simple man) and to see if she had sex with all the "seven dwarves". It's not the best compliment we can do to an actress or a movie... She's beautiful but never expressed the "purity" that everyone talks about on the movie. The sex scenes are there without bringing any intensity or something new to the plot or characters. It could have so much passion, emotions, etc, but nothing there... This movie could be great on so many levels, it fails on everything unfortunately.

Modern and revisited version of the German tale set in shape by the Grimm brothers in 1812 and popularized all over the world by Walt Disney in 1937. It's funny, inventive, subversive, free and mature. Although the movie slightly flounders during the first thirty minutes, Anne Fontaine dares! The wicked witch imbued with her person is replaced by an unscrupulous woman disappointed by her unfaithful husband, and the seven dwarves are partially replaced by ...guess what!... sex friends, the movie openly flirting with eroticism. Lou de Laâge, Isabelle Huppert, Vincent Macaigne and Benoît Poelvoorde are awesome.

What a disappointment. I truly wanted to like this going into this knowing Isabelle Huppert was playing a modern dark comedy version of the evil queen. A revisionist Snow White as an dark comedy with erotic elements? sounds perfect. But the end product is terrible, not funny at all and instead, trite,predictable and just a jumble of post feminist cliches. The feminist would have been inherent in the plot there was need need to make it so hamhanded. In fact it ends up being exploitative of women. Hubbert and Poelvoorde are wasted, my guess embarrassed in the end to even be in this mess.
