Happily Never After 2 DVD Review

“Snow White Another Bite @ the Apple”

Very Shrek-like, with a little less in your face comedy. This dvd is due to release on March 24th, 2009.

This movie was a funny interpretation of the fairytale world with an emphasis on the necessity of balance between good and evil. The main character Snow White is a teenaged Lindsay Lohan-Paris Hilton-Britney Spears kind of girl with little interest in anything beyond being hip, being noticed and hanging out with gal pals, Little Bo Peep, Red Riding Hood, and Goldi Locks. After a terrible trick is played with Snow left holding the bag, she runs off and learns what it really means to be loved and adored by the people she encounters, as opposed to the friend-of-the-week people with which she had previously surrounded herself. After learning the error of her ways, she returns to her kingdom to live a life, happily ever after.

The comedic stylings of the characters in fairytale world is best described as cute and entertaining.

I’d show this dvd to my 9 year old niece, and I suspect that she’d get a real kick out of the way that the characters interacted with one another in that teeny bopper way. As an adult, it was watchable, and I did laugh at a number of very funny scenes, particularly the opening scene with Monk and Mambo.

I give this dvd 7 ‘dwarves‘ out of 10.  It’s definitely worth the watch with the kiddos!
