The new film “Snow White,” a remake of Disney’s classic animated film, has drawn a lot of negative feedback, including criticism of the cast and the overall quality of the production. The film, which aims to bring a modern take on the fairy tale, has been the subject of much criticism and backlash from the public.
One of the main reasons for this hatred is the lead actress, Rachel Zegler, who plays the role of “Snow White.” Critics have had major concerns about comments she made when she said she thought characters such as Snow White were made for the pleasure of the male perspective and that these traditional figures should be included in a more versatile and modern way.
This type of commentary was not well received by fans of the original and those who prefer a more guarded stance towards Disney's cultural heritage.
Others have also commented on the elephant in the room: Rachel Zegler doesn't even look like Snow White! If for roles like Beauty or Sleeping Beauty, the hair color of the characters or something similar is not the norm, with Snow White things are different.
In the original narrative of the fairy tale, important elements in her description are the dirty black hair, crimson lips and snow-white skin, which is literally the name of the character. Meanwhile, Zegler is of Latin origin and her appearance, despite all the aesthetic modifications for the role, does not match the appearance of Snow White in the fairy tale.

Gal Gadot, who plays the role of the Witch, has also been heavily criticized for her performance in the film. Despite being a well-known and beloved actress, many have expressed doubts about her acting skills and have begun to mock her acting in other roles.

In addition to criticism of the actors, the quality of the film has also been criticized by many internet users. In addition to the problematic performances of the actors, there have also been complaints about the special effects and visual realization of the film.
The film was considered by many to be inadequate and unworthy of such a large project, offering truncated scenes and an overall unfinished feel that failed to live up to the level of audience expectations. Some even felt that Disney itself did not want to make a good film.
In the end, it seems that "Snow White" has failed to meet the expectations of fans of the original Disney film and has caused much discussion and dissatisfaction, becoming the subject of numerous criticisms for the actors, screenwriters and the entire production team.
