I grew up watching the classic Snow White Story and I think that Mirror Mirror was my favorite version!  Julia Roberts did an amazing job as the evil Queen and Lily Collins was adorable as Snow White.  Not to mention Armie Hammer who played the Prince and hilarious Mare Winningham as servant to the Queen.  I watched the movie a few times and loved it just as much each time.  I even watched it with my boyfriend’s mother and kids and they really enjoyed it.  In fact, his mom said that it was the best version of Snow White she’d seen.

I not only liked the movie, but also loved the Magical Extras and Special Features, especially the song at the end – “I Believe in Love.”  Mirror Mirror is available on Blu-ray and DVD from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment and Relativity Media.  The Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack retails for $39.99 and the DVD retails for $29.98, available online and in stores.

Mirror Mirror is directed by visionary filmmaker Tarsem Singh (Immortals) and is a visually-spectacular, fresh and funny retelling of the classic Snow White legend.  This family comedy features a star-studded cast including Academy Award®-winner Julia Roberts as the evil Queen, breakout star Lily Collins (The Blind Side) as Snow White, Armie Hammer (The Social Network) as the Prince, and Golden Globe® nominee Nathan Lane as the hapless bungling servant to the Queen. The film also stars Sean Bean (Game of Thrones) as the King and Mare Winningham (Brothers) as Baker Margaret and showcases the stunning costumes from Academy Award®-winning designer Eiko Ishioka (Dracula).

The Blu-ray includes sparkling extras including a behind-the-scenes featurette, a toe-tapping dance-along to the reworked Nina Hart song “I Believe in Love” performed by the film’s Collins that plays over the end credits, interactive digital storybook, deleted scenes and much more.
