This movie is what I expected it to be: funny, innocent, refreshing and magical. It's recommendable for all ages and enjoyable for families, couples and also individuals.
First of all, you need to keep in mind that this is NOT a dark twist of the original fairytale and also is NOT a deep movie. It's simply, with some modifications, Snow White. A funny and ironic turn while yet colorful and innocent, we find a Snow White (Lily Collins) locked in her own castle by her party-loving and evil step-mother, the Queen (Julia Roberts), who exploits a hungry kingdom.
Special effects are good, story plot is also good (both classical and original) and characters are interesting. The best of the movie is, without doubt, Julia Robert's acting. To be honest, Collins didn't sound so reliable in some scenes.
The new "mirror mirror" version is better than fine, along with the apple scene. Plot ends complete without unanswered questions, and, if you listened correctly to the beginning of the movie, the end will make perfect sense *SPOILER ALERT* (since they say the people of the kingdom used to dance and sing all the time, and once the kingdom is restored they dance and sing again).
The only thing I would change about this movie is Sean Bean short appearance at the end of the movie, such a good actor should have had some more scenes in the movie.
