The Huntsman: Winter's War
This is a difficult movie to review because it was pretty bad, but not as bad as say The Hateful Eight where I wanted to rip my eyeballs out and never watch a movie again. The first 15-30 minutes is a protracted, contrived set-up to try to force us to see how this movie is related to the first; But without the character of Snow White, and with only minimal involvement of Ravenna (Charlize Theron) I was left wondering why they bothered at all. Of course The Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) is the continuity, but regardless of what the movie or his character was called I would have gone to see him in an axe-wielding, arrow slinging melee anyway so again I was left wondering why, why, why.
There really was nothing special about this movie - there were some fight scenes, they were fine. There were some newly-created worlds of ice and snow or goblins and forests, they were fine. There was Chris Hemsworth, who is always fine! :) But overall, nothing to write home about.
