Review: Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters

We all know the classic tale of Hansel and Gretel who's parents ditched them in the woods. They then found a house made of candy. Unfortunately, it was a trap laid out by a witch, who wanted young children to eat.

But what happens after they kill the witch? They become witch hunters, of course. Hansel and Gretel travel the area, picking up bounties on witches.

Eventually, they meet a grand witch, who could be their match. But while battling her, they find out the secrets of their past.

This latest Hollywood retelling of classic tales is action packed. It's a good, entertaining hour and twenty-seven minute movie, for adults. The movie deserves it's R rating, with a bit of nudity, some language and clear innuendo, not to mention lots of violence and gore.

Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, hit theaters January 25. Starring Jeremy Renner, Gemma Arterton, and Femke Janssen.
