It's a delighful family fantasy film that is timeless, one that both children and adults can enjoy.
07/05/07
In addition to its historical value as the first animated feature, it is still a delight, with memorable songs and characters.
06/30/07
So perfect is the illusion, so tender the romance and fantasy, so emotional are certain portions when the acting of the characters strikes a depth comparable to the sincerity of human players, that the film approaches real greatness.

Top Critic
Top Critic ...the animation itself is top-notch, and in a number of darker sequences (Snow White's terrified entry into the forest, for example), Disney's adoption of Expressionist visual devices makes for genuinely powerful drama.
06/24/06
Most remarkable in Snow White's romps through the forest with her pack of animal pals, Disney's brilliant cell animation has rarely been equaled.
09/09/05
Songs like 'Heigh-Ho'and 'Some Day My Prince Will Come' are timeless; people who haven't seen this in years still recall every word.
09/16/03
It is a classic, as important cinematically as The Birth of a Nation or the birth of Mickey Mouse.
