It wasn't bad; there were lots of great little details, but the bigger story arc just fell sort of flat for me. You never really get to know William at all, so his 10+ years of devotion to her don't feel real. The dialog was forgettable, apart from Snow's speech rallying the troops at the end (and the dwarf's line about poo LOL!). The injection of the pagan element -- the forest, the stag (which were excellent visually) -- conflicted badly with her recitation of the Lord's Prayer near the beginning. Snow White spends most of her life in solitary confinement and most of the movie running running running from people trying to kill her, yet she gets one lesson in how to fight with a knife, and suddenly she's able to ride a horse, wear armor, wield a sword and stab the queen. I know it's a fairy tale, but still...
