The Brothers Grimm

The jury is still out on this one.

No, seriously.

Since the red Netflix envelope dropped into my mailbox, I've watched this movie multiple times and I honestly do not know what my opinion is on it.

But here's what I do know...

I am a big fan of Terry Gilliam's other work.
Though Heath Ledger's performance is a bit lackluster at times, I found him very watchable.
I found myself really disliking Matt Damn's character, but that might have been the point.
Something tells me they really wanted Keira Knightley for the female lead.
Though I could appreciate the "look" they were trying for, the fx come off cartoony at times.

I might have to watch it a few more times before I decide. I'll let you know.

I didn't like the end. Everything up to the eurika moment where the main characters just figure it out was great. that said it was cool who they blended all those fairy tales together. I thought that was neat.
