1/10
boring, scriptless, in one word awful
17 May 2013
I wasn't expecting anything when I watched this movie in theater. Here is my advice for any person who's looking on IMDb if it is worth to be seen : run run run!!!!!!!!. I know "Hansel and Gretel" might not be the worst movie of all time, but it is definitely one of them. The acting is shallow (I suspect the actors weren't convinced themself of the scenario), the medieval contemporary / atmosphere is a mess ( "Van Helsing" replica but much worse ), and god all I can remember really about the movie is that tons of of ketchup and strawberry jam spammed at every single minute of the movie, looking to put any sense in this glorious mess "Hansel and Gretel" - Witch Hunter...

I struggled to not leave during the movie, having some hope for a potential sparkling in the scenario, which will save the day... but really everything is predictable. Even my husband passed out on the first quarter of the movie. You will not see any memorable speech/scene/atmosphere in this popcorn movie. The dark tale of "Hansel and Gretel" that I read once when I was young has nothing to do with this thing. I put one star, for the make-up artist of the witches ( can't put 0 anyway ).
