The Huntsman: Winter&#8217;s War (Universal, 3,791 Theaters, 114 Minutes, Rated PG-13 for fantasy action violence and some sensuality, Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer rating at press time: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/the_huntsman_winters_war\/\">18% Fresh<\/a> [124 Reviews]):<\/strong>This franchise is pretty messed up. This film, of course, is the sequel to 2012&#8217;s <strong>Snow White and the Huntsman<\/strong>. When that film became a success, they announced that a follow-up focusing exclusively Chris Hemsworth&#8217;s Huntsman character. And they announced it in such a way that it made it seem that the couldn&#8217;t get rid of Kristen Stewart, who played Snow White, fast enough. Awkward.<\/p>\n<p>This film being partially a prequel to the last one soften the blow of Stewart being bounced. But then you have a majority of the TV ads for this film making it look like it is all about Charlize Theron and Emily Blunt&#8217;s characters and the Huntsman becomes a supporting character. Weird.<\/p>\n<p>But weirdest of all is how you can have a film with this many good actors, all who have done wonderful work in the past and include a Oscar winner and an Oscar nominee, and get such crappy reviews. Something has to go seriously wrong for that to happen.<\/p>\n<div class=\"outer-embed-ta\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"embed-ta\" src=\"\/\/v.traileraddict.com\/107527\" width=\"675\" height=\"380\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">The New Releases number only one this week: The Huntsman: Winter&#8217;s War. <\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2016\/04\/22\/new-releases-april-22-2016\/\" title=\"New Releases: April 22, 2016\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":38364,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[3463,1641,1289,2619,7880,3431,7958],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-38362","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-charlize-theron","9":"tag-chris-hemsworth","10":"tag-emily-blunt","11":"tag-kristen-stewart","12":"tag-new-releases","13":"tag-snow-white-and-the-huntsman","14":"tag-the-huntsman-winters-war"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2,4],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38362"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38362\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38364"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38362"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=38362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
