Critics Consensus

Amanda Bynes is charming, but Sydney White is a poorly adapted take on Snow White, relying on tired ethnic stereotypes laughs.

Despite the slight material and micro-direction, Bynes manages to shine.

...Sydney White's astounding lack of positive attributes cements its place as an utterly worthless endeavor.

A modern Snow White, without charisma or sparkle, didn't convince me.

I had to drop it because the entire film is just “Outcast girl gets bullied but catches attention of hot popular guy”

Terrible, se que es una película de hace casi 20 años pero que Netflix la recomiende tanto me hizo verla y es una película ridícula, no cursi... ridícula, la Regina George ni siquiera es mala solo es una chica celosa y los diálogos, las actuaciones incluso en su idioma original, su escena de el beso de la bella durmiente dan ganas de dar de baja la cuenta Netflix, pero bueno una película mas para la lista de "No volveré a ver"

Filme bacaninha, o roteiro é mais ou menos, o filme tem poucas cenas boas, mas o filme não teve muita relevância e o elenco não ajudou em quase nada.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

It was a good movie, and I would watch it again although there were a few problems. The stigma of the 'minorities' were hard to watch. At the end, when she starts talking about how were all dorks I cringed internally. Good movie, hard watch a few scenes.
