Great and Entertaining mindless action flick

Rating: 9/10 (30 January 2013)

I thoroughly enjoyed watching Hanzel and Gretal. The Special Effects were fantastic, the acting was better than most of the genre, and the story tied together nicely. Yes, a certain amount of disbelief is required to be suspended, and this is not a factual period piece! No, this will never be considered as an Oscar contender, but it was never attempting to be. This is a perfect example of an adult Saturday afternoon popcorn flick, not an cynical introspective on current social issues! If you want to be critical of every aspect of every movie you see, then this one is not for you. But, if you enjoy a good flick for the sake of entertainment value, then this is an excellent choice!!! WARNING: THIS IS NOT FOR CHILDREN!!!
