A classic fairy tale gets a modern twist in the action-packed animated adventure Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs, premiering on Digital and On Demand September 18 and available to own on Blu-ray™ and DVD September 22 from Lionsgate. Chloë Grace Moretz (Bolt, Inside Out), Sam Claflin (The Hunger Games series), Gina Gershon (TV’s “Riverdale”), Patrick Warburton (TV’s “Family Guy,” The Emperor’s New Groove), and Jim Rash (TV’s “Community”) lend their vocal talents to this humorous and heartwarming retelling of the Snow White fable, only this time it’s the princess who must save the prince(s) – all seven of them!
This family-friendly film has “a strong body-positive theme that emphasizes the beauty of characters of all shapes and sizes” (Common Sense Media), and received the Dove Seal of Approval for All Ages.
This outrageous fairy tale spoof starts as Snow White steals a pair of red shoes that transform her into a princess. Meanwhile, a witch’s curse turns seven brave princes into dwarfs, forcing them to seek out the princess, hoping for a kiss to break their spell. Together, they must face Snow White’s wicked stepmother – who will stop at nothing to get her precious shoes back – and, along the way, learn that true beauty lies within!

When I saw the trailer of this film, I wasn't quite sure what to think about the body images it was portraying for girls. It seems that Snow White is made more "beautiful" by putting on the red shoes and no longer being herself. But you can't always judge a film by its trailer. By the end of the film, your kids will get the message about beauty being important on the inside and being comfortable in your own skin, even if it happens in an unexpected round-about way.
My daughters found lots of great humor in Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs. It is a fun mash up hodge podge of magical myths that gave us a lot of Shrek vibes. The "wicked stepmother" also reminded us of the mother in Tangled. It will probably appeal more to younger kids, but my nine year old still enjoyed it.
