I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
I watched this with my friend and in all honesty, we gave up with the plot with in the first half and hour/20 minutes because its so boring and predictable. We only continued watching because we found the multiple mistakes entertaining. There was wardrobe mistakes and editing mistakes. There were also special effects even though there was hardly any special effects. They used a lot of filler shots of random people walking around the college, but they kept on re using the exact same shot every now and then. As the days went on in the film, you would keep on seeing the same extra characters in the background wearing the exact same clothes and hairstyles.The acting was dull and just overall poor to be honest - not saying I could do any better (well actually I could of) - it was really hard to stay concentrated and interested because the actors didn't seem interested.
If this was a school project it might have just been acceptable. As it is not it is an abomination. I watched only through disbelief. Just dreadful, it should have a health warning. The poster (cover) bares no relation to the film and who ever promotes this should be prosecuted under some miss-representation of goods act! The acting would be laughable if it had been better, the continuity is nonexistent and did someone actually think no one would notice the repeated scenes, then again they were lucky someone watched at all! It beggars belief that a film company would thing making this was a good idea and how do they manage to survive.
OMG I'm so glad I only paid £3 for this load of rubbish, as mentioned on previous comments the cover is not representative of the film and is misleading DO NOT BUY. The acting is poor the story terrible and the list goes on. How can companies produce this tosh and then miss sell it by making a cover look a lot more exciting then the actual film is. I would of thought it would come under the trade description act? Lets hope the newer version which came out this year is worth the money currently on at £8 in most places. One plus side is its short and I managed to watch on the way to work and as such didn't really waste any important and valuable time.
What is the best thing I can say about Hansel and Gretel: Warriors of Witchcraft (2013), oh yeah, it was only 83 minutes long, instead of 90+ minutes. Fivel Stewart and real life brother, BooBoo Stewart play – wait for it – brother and sister witch slayers, Ella and Jonah. It was good to see Vanessa Angel again, sorry it had to be in such poor movie and one of my all time favorite ladies, Cherie Currie who does get a couple of scenes teaching one of the smallest classes I have ever seen, but at least it is outdoors and under a shade tree. A couple of other decent players, none of whom I ever remember seeing before are Tyne Stecklein as Megan, Courtney B. Turk as Reiko, Kathryn Collins as Kristen and I felt she should have been given a much bigger role. Then there was the BMOC played by Niclas Gillis as Landon and a brief role going to Judy Norton as Allyson. Finally one of my least favorite actors Eric Roberts as Mr. Sebastian.The whole thing takes place at one school, but they try and make you think it is two schools, but the opening scene at the first school is the same scene they use over and over in the movie. The whole thing is a rush to make money on the coat-tails of the real Hansel and Gretel – Witch Hunters. I won't spoil your fun and or give anything away, as if there were anything to give away. You might watch this to see Fivel Stewart as I think she could go far in the movie business, as long as she doesn't get too many roles like this one.
