Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I agree with Ashley S
Review: A lot of people hate this movie because they believe that the people who made it were trying to cash it in as a sequel to the Disney movie. However, I loved this movie because this time it showed Snow White saving the day, instead of the seven dwarves. I also loved the seven dwarfelles, because they were funny and original. I don't think I would've liked this movie all that much if the seven dwarves (not the Disney versions) were in it. This way we get to see some new characters and how they paly out in the story. I really don't care for the animation as well. Remember, this is before technology made animation better.

Summary: A loathsome travesty
Review: Anyone over 4 will recognize that this animation is fourth-rate Saturday morning material, the jokes fall flat, the songs are horrific, and the story is [shallow]. As for the younger crowd, my 3-year-old daughter found it too scary. So this movie should appeal to no one. It's no surprise that Dom DeLuise was involved; but Ed Asner, I am ashamed of you.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It actually has potential
Review: I cannot say that I loved this movie now, but when I got it and I was 5 (1995) I loved it and it had class. These are a few technical errors which I will list:
1.The story is kinda drab and has a little annoying thing about it.
2. Lord Malis or whatever is not that scary and maybe we could have seen more of him like at the end when he was actully a little scary.
3. Please! What is up with that Thunderella song "If the sun can keep shining down, then why can't I shine too?" It was atrocious.
With all this said, it was a okay movie, but way more for younger kids, try 3-7.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fairytale Lover
Review: I know this movie isn't popular. I don't particularly care for the disney version. This movie would have been better if it was two movies in one. Like showing scenes that weren't included in the original. Like the time when the queen used the poisoned comb and corset.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Picks right up where the original story left off.
Review: It is better to think of this as a sequal to the Grimms tale, not the Disney film. The Dwarfs are not in here only because Disney said no. But that's okay. Muddy, Sunburn, Critterina, Marina, Blossom, Noonbeam and Thunderella are just as good. Lord MALISS could very well be the brother of the unamed Wicked Queen. The soundtrack is one of the best that goes with film. I saw this when it first came out in 1993. I was seven or eight years old then. I really loved this film then and now. But I appreciate it more these days. The only slight quibble is that I saw a more pleasant Mother Nature in "The Year Without a Santa Clause".

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Good Grief this is Awful!!!!!!
Review: Oh my god.... this was the worst movie I've ever seen!!! along with the horrable animation, there was absolutely no plot whatsoever! It seems like the animators were half dead when they drew this, and it seems like the storywriters were just making up the story as they went along. I liked it when I was a kid, but when I had to watch it as a teen, I thought I would die!!! Okay, okay, lets just review the plot, shall we? Snow White & her prince are off to invite the 7 dwarfs to their wedding (it's already starting to die...),but oh no... the dead-wicked-queen's brother wants to avenge snow white & her prince for killing his sister. So he kidnaps Prince Charming in the form of a dragon. Snow White is so scared and soon meets the 7 Dwarfelles (oh joy...). They decide to seek help from Mother Nature, who is no help whatsoever but sends the 8 of them on to the (dum-dum-duumm-DDDUUUUUMMMM) realm of doom. You can see the movie if you really want to find out what happens to them...
Along with a atrocious plot, the characters are equally as bad (think...a surly owl, a pathetic bat, and Thunderella). If you like the characters, then you'll love the songs. Thunderella sings her "I need to shine like the sun" or whatever it was called song. It was Absolutely HORRABLE!!!
Please... If you want to be spared from a lifetime of horror,Don't, I repeat, Don't watch this movie!! If i could rate it lower, I would.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ive Loved It Ever Since I Was Little
Review: So what if the graphics are kind of bad? I mean cmon! This movie was made over 10 years ago! When they didnt have top quality movies and such. But anyways! I love this movie, it has been one of my childhood favorites. Today I was searching for the song Thunderella sings cause i absoloutly adore it! And i come across this! Tons of people absoloutly hating it! I dont get why? I mean IT DID have a plot, a cute one too! The characters were original (cept maybe cinderella, but anywaysss) and the songs were fun to sing along to! So please dont listen to what those people say (cause they dont know a good movie even if it hit them in the face) and give it a try! Share it with your kids, parents, siblings, friends, everyone!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The "Happily Ever After" Story
Review: This movie is about Lord Malice. He is the brother of the evil queen who is dead. He goes after the people that caused his sister's death, Snow White and her prince. The prince ends up being captured. With the help of Mother Nature and seven dwarfelles Snow White embarks on a quest to get her prince back.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good Lord!
Review: Whose brilliant idea was it to write a SEQUEL to Snow White? And decide to dump the best part of the cast?

Snow White and Prince Charming are heading for the dwarfs' residence to invite them to their wedding (why didn't they invite them before they left the forest? Did they need to find the invites first?). But, unknownst to them, the terrifying brother of the evil queen, Lord Something-Or-Other, has vowed revenge on Snow White and her prince for killing his sister. He transforms into a massive dragon and vanishes with the prince, while Snow White flees into the woods.

Soon she comes to the house of the Seven Dwarfs, but-surprise surprise!-they have been replaced by their female cousins, the Dwarfelles (you can predict the quality of this gesture) who all embody various forces of nature, like water and sun and flowers and... storms.

On the way to see Mother Nature, Snow White befriends the inept Thunderella, and convinces the hip earth goddess to give the Dwarfelles another chance. Mother Nature sends Snow White and her doofus troupe to find the boyfriend (if she's so powerful, how come she doesn't zap him in herself? Or is she not that good?) Along the perilous way, Snow White is shadowed by a mysterious, deformed creature.

It had potential. It really did-Snow White was pretty well-characterized despite lame-o lines like, "You're special too, you are! Everyone is!" But the soundtrack is truly stinky, with songs like, "If The Sun Can Keep Shining Down, Then Why Can't I Shine Too?" and the villain is... well, cookie-cutter doesn't do him justice. The mirror is turned into a wise-cracking rhymer, and a couple of "baaaaaaaaad" characters are introduced, a tough-guy owl and a pathetic bat.

The ending might not have been so ludicrous (it might have been touching) if Mother Nature hadn't popped in spontaneously and started talking in Disneyesque language about love and "her" humans.
