    A me le favole mi piacciono sempre tanto.
    E poi qua ci sono i fratelli Grimm, Terry Gilliam, Heath Ledger, insomma, ci siamo capiti.

    As I was watching The Brothers Grimm, I knew I'd find it interesting to see how the best fairy tales ever originated with their travels from village to village while pretending to rid them of "enchanted creatures". When the French government investigates a haunted forest a...( read more)nd the mysterious disappearances of girls, they find an evil sorceress that parallels that of the folklore and fables that the Grimms were searching for. I can say that this is a great fantasy film that is worth watching for: the special effects (SFX) are so well made, and they looked real to me - check out the great action sequences, too. Starring the impressive acting performances by Matt Damon and the late Heath Ledger.

    This movie is easy to recommend but hard to love, distinguished by Gilliam's extravagant and funny style, but compromised by creative warfare and budgetary limitations. The strain is evident: the brothers' personalities and relationships to each other are poorly established, and ...( read more)the film's structure is ungainly. Never finding his groove, Damon is surprisingly dull in comparison to Ledger's hyperactive "Brad Pitt in Twelve Monkeys" routine. As in so many Hollywood pictures, the climax of The Brothers Grimm is undeniably bloated, but Gilliam infuses it with energy rather than exhaustion. Despite its messiness, The Brothers Grimm deserves credit for its idiosyncratic ambition,
  • October 14, 2009
    Interesting interpretation of the Brothers Grimm.
  • October 9, 2009
    It was definitely interesting. Damon and Heath are a good pair. Too bad they couldnt have worked together more
  • October 6, 2009
    old cgi... weak premise and WHAT is with the english accents... but still an entertaining performance from heath ledger.

    Definitely enchanted me when I first saw it! I found it highly entertaining to see most of our beloved and famous children's stories combined, along with an interesting storyline about two brothers weaving fairytales and magical creatures to scam villages and earn money.

    Not mu...( read more)ch to say about this film except that i was highly amused about the plot and kept me guessing the entire time. Not very intelligent, but then again, movies are meant to entertain. All the characters are charming and I don't mind watching it again!
  • September 18, 2009
    Not a bad film and quite funny too.
  • September 13, 2009
    Trust me from experience, not a first date movei. Fun and visual anyway
  • September 12, 2009
    I've seen it. Heath Ledger had not such an important role but a cute role all the same. Too see the old and dead queen brought back was almost scary and somewhat freaky. That's weird crazy love or whatever it was
  • September 6, 2009
    Lena Headey and Heath Ledger were soooo amazing! They had perfect chemistry, and wonderful acting abilities.

    I loved Lena's outdoorsy good looks, and her overall emotional range. She had great body language, and her looks were so surreal and increadablly realistic.

    I loved...( read more) Heath Ledgers humor and his intellegent charm. He was so good looking and akward. He was a strong character with full-fledged beliefs and a great drive. He carried the character through all the trials and made it out on the other side. His relasionships with Lena and Matt Damon were increadiablly well developed.

    Matt Damon had a boyish charm but his character was the 'frat-boy' in the Brothers Grimm group. He didn't have the class and the smarts that Heath's character had. He was funny and intriging to watch though.

    MacKenzie Crook, Jonathan Pryce, Peter Stormare, Laura Greenwood, and Frantiseek Velcky were all wonderful actors too.

    I loved the plot and the idea of making all of the Brother's Grimm stories in one with an extra plot line to support having the brothers in the movie. I lvoed the romance, the comedy, the horror, and the drama. I loved how the plot unfolded and how realistic it all looked and felt.

    A TRUE MOVIE EXPERIANCE!

    The special effects and music were really good, and added to the plot of the mvoie vastly.

    I loved how it was written and directed. Terry Gilliam made another great movie.

    RATED PG-13 for:
    Violence
    Langguage (not much)
    Sexual Content (a little bit... but not much)

    I know this movie only got 5.6 in IMDB, but i gotta watch this; Terry Gilliam directed this, Matt and Heath Ledger is in it, and i love fantasy movie!

    The Brothers Grimm is actually enjoyable from the first half, even i like the ending but the problem is the twist, the length an...( read more)d the over dramatized scenes.
    What i love is the reference from the 'Brothers Grimm' tale; like Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Greta, Snow White, Rapunzel in a more sadistic and eviler way. Some commented on the actors acting, Matt Damon and Late Heath Ledger can't do WRONG!! I love them, great as usual and i am surprised as how talented Ledger is, quirky and funny. The stunning Monica Belluchi did alright in here, maybe that's the disappointment.

    Terry Gilliam is a brilliant man, despite hatred toward this movie, but again like i mention i would see any fantasy genre movie available.

    Will Grimm: All right, Jake. What do you want me to do?
    Jacob Grimm: Honestly? You're my brother. I want you to believe in me.

    6/10.

    Genuine magic in the middle of a real fairy-tale. It's quite funny to follow the rational mind fighting it: "They've put the woods on wheels. Those trees on tracks. Pulley system. Expensive".
  • August 27, 2009
    It was like Sleepy hollow, Shriek and Fear and loathing in Las Vegas rolled into one but without being that good. I don't think Gilliam realises but people act a certain way in his films, maybe its his doing, I'm not sure but its annoying. Yes he is a python but that doesn't make...( read more) you John Cleese!! Aw, it was ok, I thought everyone did very well, i just expected more from such a great director!
  • August 26, 2009
    intresting take on the brothers grimm real lives with a fairy tale twist
  • August 19, 2009
    This movie was different from other like it I had seen and I loved it!! I think the balance of humor, action, and romance was great. I loved all the charaters and their different personalites. They were just so easy to enjoy. I found myself wanting to learn more about the Grimm B...( read more)rother after this movie.

  • August 9, 2009
    i hav seen it but dont remember how good it wuz
  • August 7, 2009
    I am actually quite impressed by the writer, since it is a really good story. It was a nice surprise to see Peter Stormare, and he did a fine job too. And that the biggest female role had my name (Angelica) only did it better.
  • August 6, 2009
    Not a bad action fantasy movie. But I expected something more. Not sure what though. Maybe it was the flow of the film. Decent performances from Heath Ledger and Matt Damon. The F/X and the plot is decent. Has a good supporting cast. Maybe I expected more after watching the trai...( read more)lers for this. It is worth checking out. If your a Matt Damon or Heath Ledger fan then I would give it a chance.
  • July 26, 2009
    A little too predictable, and not funny enough to bother for a second watch..
  • July 23, 2009
    love the plot and the story. Great movie! ^_^
  • July 21, 2009
    faiRy talE jud au...hehe
  • July 21, 2009
    barely a flicker of memory or worth
  • July 20, 2009
    Two stars just because I have seen many worse films...
  • July 20, 2009
    Bad cheesiness with an o.k. idea.
  • July 19, 2009
    Loved it! I like movies with fairytale influences. Matt Damon and Heath Ledger were both very good I think. We all miss Heath!

    But back to the movie itself.. The story was strong, original, and as I said I loved the fairy tale things in it.
  • July 13, 2009
    The irritating "comic relief" of the Peter Stormare character is the movie's main flaw. The rest is rather enjoyable (watch Heath Ledger play around with Jack Sparrow mannerisms).
  • July 12, 2009
    life is not a fairy tale, but i love them!
  • July 12, 2009
    great movie combining all of the classic brother grimm tales
  • July 7, 2009
    This fantasy tale shows helmer Terry Gilliam at his best and worst; the best being his wonderful imagination let loose, the worst being a lack of structure. Technically, it's a glorious mess, but it's highly enjoyable to watch, with fine performances from Matt Damon and, especial...( read more)ly, the late Heath Ledger, which pretty much make Peter Stormarr's risible Cavaldi forgivable.
  • July 3, 2009
    Not one of heath ledger's personal best.
    -It's not magoc it's just shiny.
  • June 30, 2009
    I like this one too a little borring
  • June 28, 2009
    thought it was kinda lame... but nice special effects
