Snow White and the Huntsman

So I went out with friends last night to see Snow White and the Huntsman not expecting much except for the hotness that is Chris Hemsworth.  In return I was pleasantly surprised at this magical interpretation of the Snow White tale.  This turned out to be a great film.  While I am not a fan of Kristen Stewart, her acting and English accent were quite good and I actually liked her in this role.  Chris Hemsworth was perfect in the role of axe bearing hunter extraordinaire with his sexy english accent.  But, Charlize Theron stole the show as the evil queen. The special effects/makeup for her transformation was amazing.  All of the familiar Snow White elements of the story were there, the evil queen, the apple, the dwarfs, the kiss, but it was presented in a fantastic grown up way that gives the story a whole new life.  Props go out to the director, cast and crew for this creative interpretation.  The only thing I didn't like about the film was the ending.  *Spoiler Alert* - When Snow White becomes the queen she stands in front of her subjects with a fanciful stick in her hand (what?) and looks out as everyone praises her.  The Huntsman comes in and looks at her with a smile, in return she looks at him with an expression of constipation.  Strange to say the least.  She has just become queen and can do and have anything she wants and she looks at him, the man who brought her back to life, with a distressed look.  What???  Then the movie ends.  No embrace, no, kiss, nothing.  Total fail on the ending!
