Good action/story, few items out of place.

Rating: 8/10 (26 June 2013)

I enjoyed watching the movie. Overall good story, good action. It all starts with Hansel and Gretel getting lost in the woods, and ends up getting captured by a witch in a house made out of candy. Their is plenty of action, and the story is well-rounded (what is told, and left for mystery throughout the movie, is later revealed towards the end). I'd say there is no loose-ends here, and it is a good thriller/twist on the tale of Hansel and Gretel. However, like most movies or stories, they are not without their imperfections.
The tech used to combat the witches, makes a good twist for the time period this story is told in, I'd say, somewhere in beginnings of the gunpowder age. The automatic cross bow, and the rifle are a perfect fit for a movie such as this, however, I think its safe to say that the .270 caliber rounds that were depicted to be used with Hansel's guns, did not quite fit in very well, and I think something akin to the bullet used in the end to bring the evil witch down should have been more of a proper design for a movie of this caliber. Although this is not a huge disappointment or any at all, it will likely stick out like a sore thumb to a firearm fanatic.
