Boring, derivative and stupid abuse of classic fairy tale

Rating: 2/10 (5 July 2013)

This movie has some cool action scenes. That is about the positives of the movie. Otherwise it is utter and boring crap, that illustrates that American Cinematography has the unique ability to rape and waste any legend or fairy tale it likes. Then it turns it into another generic display of American mediocrity (cultural references, "sudden twists", missing children on milk, corrupted cops, lovers dying in hands - - you know your average post 9/11 America BS). I really expect that the Hollywood produces Anal Porn Action Musical based on The Swan Lake Ballet one day.
The worst part is the fact that even when the movie is filled with Action, Girls With Boobs, Deadly Gagdets and Fully Automatic Guns, it is very predictable and boring. You have very good idea about the story after approximately about 10 minutes of watching. No originality here. Not a bit. Not a very tiny slightest grain of anything original and new.
The overall result is horrid. Welcome to world of The Hansel & Gretel Special FBI Investigation Group! These classic heroes play the role of The Good Forces Spetsznaz Group that wages the war with Witches Vietcong style. You know there is no Evil Force that cannot be eliminated by grenade or heavy machine gun. This is no "dark version of fairy tale". It is quite regular Gun Porn with better production values, only less fun. As such it is unsuitable both for children and people with any measurable level of intelligence.
As a excuse however I understand that if you are in you ripe teen years, you are on a party and have a lot of beer and weed you can actually enjoy this. But please beware that the shooting fun seems to be less enjoyable in real life than it is in the TV so don't line up the very next day to the enlistment to the Army. You may find that "we will find you and we will kill you" is less fun than expected when you end up in Afghanistan or other desert hole (that was the last scene where the the Good Spectsznaz Group was heading).
Oh hell yes. The whole movie smells like a big dump of this "let's fight the terrorists, our lads" propaganda.
