Trailer Review - Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters




Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters
1st Trailer
Watch It Here


Person of Interest: Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton as Hansel & Gretel.

Scene Pop: Homage to She-Devils on Wheels

Briggs Breakdown: 9 arrows fired, 1 shotgun round, 2 flash deaths, 1 blown up house, 1 blown up door, death by oven, rampant fighting/gunfire and a headbutt.

Effective?: Slightly pointed up to yes.

Check it Out?: Maybe, considering it is something to wake up the doldrums of January, but this type of fairy tale fare has proven to be disingenuous with the general public. It so far comes across as the long-awaited (to no one) sequel to Van Helsing, complete with cg vampires, anachronistic weaponry, and featuring cool and attractive leads. Also, it feels more like a byproduct of the 90's, with its lush detailing of people with guns in practically every shot.
