Comments on: Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters is absurd … but entertaining https://cliqueclack.com/p/hansel-gretel-witch-hunters-review/ Big voices. Little censors.

Although Renner’s Hansel looks a good 7-15 years older than Gretal and the characters spent more time posing with hot guns than anything else, I enjoyed it. However, the movie felt a tiny bit mysoginistic with the opening scene of demons with distorted breasts getting blown up and then ending with watching Renner’s Hansel beating the crap out of every ugly female he meets … ;)

As a Renner fan, I went to see this one today and wasn’t sure what to expect of it – and I came out feeling pretty much the same way that I went in. I don’t totally regret seeing it, but I also felt a bit underwhelmed. To be fair, you don’t go to a movie like this expecting it to reinvent the wheel, but I still cringed a little about how predictable the script was. I’d call it decidedly average…still, it did satisfy my Jeremy Renner fix, I suppose.

It was late, I had a full night of work still ahead of me, and I was rushing to get that posted by midnight. But, you know how critics can be … especially when the studio makes it difficult for them to see a movie. Me, I’m just an average Joe who has a chance to share my opinions on movies from a fan’s perspective here at CliqueClack, and going in with the lowest of expectations, it was better than I’d ever expect it to be. Sometimes you have to ignore the snooty critics (because a lot of them think much more of themselves than they should — and most of them have never made a movie) and listen to the people :-) We’ll see how it does this weekend.

But I’ll take it. (-: I’m glad you enjoyed yourself. I still don’t intend to see it, though. Looks like most critics agree, given the Metascore of 18…
