Okay, I am in hyper critical mode after working on Cranefly's screenplay, so this probably wasn't the best film to be watching. I am in the mood to root out flaws and boy HandK was a smorgasboard of them.
Basically, this is the story of what happened to Hanzel and Gretel after they escaped from the witch. Turns out they are immune to witches powers' so that makes them the perfect witch hunters. On with the blood shed.
Another 3-D movie switched to 2-D. So, again the 3-D bits stand out as awkward. But the story wasn't that bad. The acting was over the top. they had a bunch of steam punk bits with the weird weapons. You should probably watch this as a double feature with Van Helsing because it had the same tone.
They also couldn't decide if they wanted to use modern colloquialisms or historic ones so there was a lot of going back forth. They also wanted their R rating, so people said Fuck a lot. Lots of blood. Plenty of things blowing up. Famke looked good when she wasn't in full witch mode. but everybody had their acting set to full for this one. Not a lot of subtlety.
In the end, I didn't care about the story. The ninety minute movie felt like it took days to complete.
Yes, the Queen is out of town.

So much for the flickr badge idea. Dammit
