Mirror Mirror

Came into the movie with low expectations and just to see Julia Roberts camp it out! And boy, is she campy. Sadly this show only has 3 things going for it. 1) the Oscar-worthy costuming...hats off to the gorgeous dresses by the late Eiko Ishioka; they are so amazing; 2) sardonic dwarves; 3) Ned Stark!!! The kiddies in the theatre seemed to enjoy it, but sadly it could have been better if Tarsem Singh just embrace the absolute campiness off it all. Interesting concept and spin on this old tale unfortunately even "Once Upon a Time" is doing it better.
