Some people really need to get over themselves, judging by some of the reviews for this film. It is a fantasy based on children's stories - what the hell were they expecting, Hamlet or Henry V? It was a fun ride with plenty of action, plenty of humour, and a great cast - Chris Hemsworth brings his usual cheery action hero to the mix, Jessica Chastain was a good addition as The Huntsman's wife, and Emily Blunt played the fragile Ice Queen wonderfully well. The Dwarfs were comic relief as always, but it worked well with fewer of them and a couple of females in the mix.The story wasn't overcomlicated but if I want that, I'll go watch Memento. Chill out a little, folks.

The Huntsman: Winter's War surprised me! It was way better than the first film and held way more depth. The acting was amazing this time around with Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron. The added cast Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain fit perfectly into the movie. Each character had significance and held great power. There was character development that flowed naturally. The story was great and held no plot holes. Every event in the movie felt needed and thrilling. The CGI was stunning. The fight scenes with the two sisters was fantastic to watch. I could feel the intense scenes building with each word of dialogue. Overall I love it! And having Halsey sing at the end was the perfect touch.

This film tells the story of a fierce huntsman who goes on a quest to stop the evil ice queen from getting the magical mirror that will make her invincible.I am positively surprised by how much I enjoyed watching "The Huntsman: Winter's War". The visuals are stunningly beautiful. I find myself in awe of the marvels of the ice palace. The hairstyles and costumes of the queens, Ravenna and Freya, are super beautiful too. I was amazed by the scene where Charlize Theron has gold on her eyes, the whole image is stunning.Seeing Emily Blunt as an emotionless icy queen is very interesting as well. After watching her in "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Sicario", I could hardly imagine her as a royally beautiful and majestic queen. Yet, she is perfect as the queen who is deeply hurt and hence deeply cruel.I enjoyed every minute of "The Huntsman: Winter's War".
