Disney’s new 'Snow White' movie gets mixed reactions on Twitter: Fans praise the visuals but criticize the story

Disney’s latest live-action remake, Snow White, starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, hit theatres on March 21, 2025. As soon as the film was released, fans took to social media to share their thoughts, and the reviews on Twitter have been quite mixed. Some viewers praised the film’s visuals and music, while others felt disappointed with its story and characters. According to a report by JND, many people were eager to see this reimagined version of Disney’s classic tale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, first released as an animated movie back in 1937.
Directed by Marc Webb and produced by Marc Platt, Snow White is an American musical fantasy drama. It tells the familiar story of a young princess who teams up with seven dwarfs to free her kingdom from her evil stepmother, also known as the Evil Queen. The film features a star-studded cast, including Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen. Other key roles are played by Andrew Burnap, Martin Klebba, Ansu Kabia, Misa Koide, Charlotte Scally, Colin Michael Carmichael, and Patrick Page.

On Twitter, some viewers were impressed. One user described the movie as “a charming and magically modernized Disney reimagining,” praising its bright visuals and catchy musical numbers. They added that Rachel Zegler “shines” in her role as Snow White and perfectly fits the iconic princess character.

Another fan mentioned that the film is “visually stunning,” with beautiful cinematography, vibrant colors, and detailed costumes. They recommended giving the movie a chance rather than judging it too soon.
However, not everyone was thrilled with Disney’s new take on Snow White. A user expressed disappointment, saying the film “has no real plot” and “many underdeveloped characters.” While they praised Zegler’s singing and enjoyed the dwarfs’ performances, they felt the story lacked direction and the villain was weak. They concluded by calling the movie “decent but not memorable.”
One reviewer offered a more detailed critique. They explained that although the movie keeps the basic outline of the original story, it tries to tell a more complex and modern version. They felt the new approach added substance but also brought in political themes that made the story feel forced at times. According to them, this mix of old and new storytelling led to a confusing experience, and the film’s ending felt unrealistic.
Overall, Disney’s Snow White seems to have divided audiences. Some fans are enchanted by the visuals and music, while others are disappointed by the changes in the storyline and character development. If you’re curious to see where you stand, you can check it out in theatres now.
