Fee-fi-fo-fum!

Entertainment can be better done!

Ewan McGregor, always a pleasure to see,

But the material and characters--

No connection, no chemistry.

Fairy Tale Features are no easy feat.

See Snow White and the Huntsman for a better treat.

CGI giants do nothing for me,

But the bit with the pigs—that was funny.

These here sentiments conclude my review,

Whether you chose to see it, is now up to you.
