Hansel & Gretel - Witch Hunters

This movie is so incredibly ridiculous to the point that it's actually entertaining! It has a very "Sam Raimi horror films" feel to it - it kind of knows it's completely over the top but exploits it, milks it and is not ashamed of it. Who cares about historical facts, weird accents and things that couldn't possibly be invented yet! Who cares about witches that have little back story and who seem to have agendas you don't quite understand! It's bloody entertaining and it's fun to watch witches die in all kinds of imaginative ways.
  The story is plain, simple and stupid: Hansel and Gretel survived the witch in the candy house many years ago and now they hunt them for a living. Oh, and witches can't hurt them with spells - something that comes remarkably in handy throughout the film.
  Both Jeremy Renner and what's-her-face are cute, unbelievable and forgettable but it's the effects, the over-acting and the side characters that makes the film entertaining! Will you remember this film? No! Will we look back at it in 10 years and shake our heads ? Yes! But much like other insane twists and mismashes of other genres (Van Helsing, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen etc) this is a very light and very entertaining ride where I do think it's worth the money if you're into light entertainment (and I do mean light!).
  I love Famke Janssen! Ever since X-Men I've wanted more and more! Sadly she doesn't show up in many movies - whether by choice or not I don't know. And though she has admitted in some interview that she took this role simply because she had a mortgage to pay (yes, actors are humans!) and she seems strangely out of place in the film, seemingly thinking 'what the f***k did I agree to here) she is doing her best with a very one dimensional character and is very amusing to watch in this film!
