Snow White was one of my favorite fairy-tales and I like Christmas cartoons so I watched this Snow White Christmas cartoon and it is without a doubt one of the worst Christmas cartoons I have ever watched! It's painfully bad and way beyond cheesy!

This was SO bad ... so cheesy,so tacky, so poorly done. It was an embarrasment to poor Snow White's good name. NOTHING even remotely close to the Disney movie. Don't waste your time or your money!!

I like to watch Christmas shows and I taped a lot of them off of TV and loved them so I was watching and taping Snow White Christmas and being a fan of the animated Disney Snow White movie I thought this Christmas show would be good but it wasn't, it was dreadful the absolute pits,the voices are annoying and the dialogue is very corny, so I turned the tape of and didn't tape the rest and I don't regret doing that at all!

Snow White marries Prince Charming and they live happily ever after! That is, until they have a daughter and she becomes involved with the same wicked queen that tried to kill her mother! Little Snow White escapes to a valley where she meets the 7 Giants - the cousins of the 7 Dwarfs!

When I was a child, I remember my mom and dad taping cartoons for me so I could watch them all the time. My dad actually taped over Snow White Christmas in order to record the 1983 superbowl and it took about 20 years for me to forgive him! I finally did when he found this cartoon on VHS from another online store a few years ago. I'm happy to see that it's on Amazon but sad to see that it has gotten such bad reviews. I love all the Rankin-Bass productions and this cartoon ranks right up there with those with me. To me, it brings back memories of my childhood and the things I used to love when I was growing up. If you saw this movie for the first time as an adult, it probably wouldn't have the same effect on you because YES, it is a children's movie. I think you just have to have an open mind and forget trying to compare it to the Disney version of Snow White. I hope they put this out on DVD soon!

I taped this movie when I was young and look forward to watching it every Christmas. It's a very cute and sweet movie. I'm surprised that it has gotten bad reviews on Amazon. There is something about this movie that I absolutely love and I always look forward to watching it around Christmas time. It's just a cute Christmas special.

I love Christmas and I love Christmas cartoons but A Snow White Christmas is my least favorite, it was boring and the plot was very weak and just made no sense at all and it just had no heart!

Although many adults may find this movie boring, corny and tacky, young children find this movie fun and interesting to watch. I show it to a number of groups of young children in the schools I substitute in. It should not be literally compared with the earlier Disney version, since that was made forty plus years before this one. It can be contrasted and viewed as a continuation of Snow White's life story.

I think this movie can be used to teach young children about growing up, getting married, and having a family. Snow White as a mother and King (Prince) Charming as a father may be hard for older Snow White fans to accept, but young children will see it as a natural phase in life. The seven friendly giants (the dwarf's cousins) can be used to teach values such as honesty, and compassion.

I think this film has educational value and should be shown on TV more often during the holiday season.

An adult would find the uncreative plot, Giants with corny names (including one named Corny!), and bubbly songs particularly annoying.... but children (for whom this is intended, remember?) will love it.
