Movie Review: The Brothers Grimm

By Tim Quinton
Aug. 28, 2005

The Brothers Grimm: Set in French occupied Germany during Napoleon’s attempted conquest of the world. The story line is that the Brothers Grimm is a couple of con artist who set out to make an easy living on the fears of others. Until they actually find themselves in the fairy tale.

Starring Matt Damon, Heath Ledger, Monica Bellucci, Jonathan Pryce, and Lena Headey. All of the acting is well done, but the direction by Terry Gilliam is lacking. I know that in previous reviews I have stated that movies today do not have enough content, but this movie was too full of content. After about twenty minutes (the initial scene) the movie began to drag. I could see that interest in the movie by others in the audience, as well as myself was waning. So on a scale of 1 to 10, I will have to give this movie a 4.
