I loved this. I thought it was nearly perfect - a fluffy yet slick interpretation of the damsel in distress with great performances and fun dialog. And perhaps the BEST COSTUMES EVER. And once again, the 7 dwarves steal the show (if the costumes don't). Julia Roberts has more fun here than perhaps should be allowed - can you believe this is her job? She was great, Nathan Lane was great, Armie is silly cute, and Lily Collins is so pretty I hate her. Don't go to this looking for deep thoughts. Go to have fun. You won't be disappointed.
FYI - the costume designer for this movie was Eiko Ishioka, who won an Oscar for the Dracula costumes (and she won a Grammy for album design, etc. etc.) She recently died at 73 from pancreatic cancer, which just blows. There's a great article about her in this month's W if you want a retrospective.
