    Great movie

    I will tell you, this is a great action packed novelty movie. They did a great job developing the plot and characters. Don't wait around for Redbox, this one is worth the 12 bucks at the theater.

    This movie really entertained and delivered ten times over in my opinion. Jeremy Renner was the icing on the cake. He is so HOT, I'd watch this movie over and over. OMG he is 'smokin hot'

    Time I will not get back

    I went to it and after seeing it I thought this is 90 minutesof my life I will never get back. It was stupid with Hansel being a diabetic from eating to much candy to the weapons they used in it. It was like they ran out of ideas so they thought we will just add "WITCH HUNTER " to the end of a fairy tale and make a movie.

    Hansel and Gretel

    by 1stock1

    This is a movie for adults olny.Violence and adult language are prominent througout the film.The special effectes,makeup and film editing were really quite good.The story and some of the action that takes place, is both anachronistic and laughable in places.So, if you you need to excape reality for 1 and 1/2 hours, this movie might fit the bill.Out of 4 stars I would giv this film 2 stars.I would say that Jeremy Renner was offered a ton of money to do this movie and it is not The Hurt Locker by a long shot.

    action packed fairy tale

    This was a really good movie, a little more blood and guts than I expected but really good none the less. I loved the special effects and the characters, plus the movie length was just right. Not for your younger kids to see but anyone over 16 will probably be fine with it.

    Hansel & Gretel Wich Hundters

    This ain't yo' mama's fairy tale!
    This feature length film Directed by: Tommy Wirkola, with Jeremy Renner as Hansel, Gemma Arterton as Gretel and Famke Janssen, Muriel the witch is awesome! This is the reason I go to the movies. The plot, action and special effects are explosive like a well-choreographed ballet on screen!

    I will go see this movie again!!!

    Great action, bad writing

    by

    I have to say that I went to see this more out of wish fulfillment than anything. I mean, the fairy tale is one of my favorites and I really wanted to see Gretel as more of a strong female character. While we do see that she is take charge and independent, the story centers on her pining for meaning and loss of parents. Once you get past the fact that this strong woman runs to her brother to solve problems or needs to be saved no less than 3 times in this movie, you have a story of Gretel coming of age to understand what she is; apparently more powerful than she understands, but reluctant to use said power for unknown reasons.

    Hansel has a love interest that is barely explored. A fanboy arises out of nowhere to join the band with no questions as to motive. Insulin shots for Hansel's diabetes as a plot device?

    There is plenty wrong with the movie, however if you are looking to kill 90 minutes and want to see some wicked fights, go see it. Do not expect character development.

    about as ridiculous as you expect

    I didn't go in expecting an Oscar worthy movie, so I was not disappointed. The entire movie was incredibly ridiculous, but I went with my sister and a friend and we enjoyed the movie and experience thoroughly. I would recommend seeing it if you want to laugh and see some action.

    Worth watching

    According to harsh critics, it's a bad movie because it has no emotional movement to the audience and seems lame and out of place. Personally, I really liked it. I agree that it didn't move me in any way, but I definitely had a few laughs. The graphics were really good as well. I also jumped once. It is a good action movie and has those little things that make it enjoyable. Overall, I enjoyed the movie. Not to mention the two main cast members whom I love to see.

    Classic tale done poorly

    Ok I get it, Hollywood takes a classic fairy tale and wants to turn it into a action horror comedy thriller. Good concept, poor delivery. Really wanted to like this flick, but unfortunately, the film does not live up to the trailer. Nothing new here, lots of bone crushing and blood gushing fighting action scenes with heads getting chopped off except this time with Witches set in medieval times. Other than some nice eye candy on screen, very little chemistry at all between the leads and nothing that really draws you into the movie to make you want to give a damn about any of these characters. Jeremy Renner seems bored throughout and he wasn't the only one. Save yourself the $$ and catch this one on Cable or VOD or if you go, go with minimum expectations.

    Loved it

    I thought the movie was great!. I expected it to be corny, but it was actually very good. Not appropriate for children due to the foul language , but a definite must see !!!!
