This movie was really bad, it had stupid acting, and a really really bad story. Ewww.I give Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters a 3/10
Mihai Toma
When they were kids, Hansel and Gretel were abandoned by their father in the nearby forest, ending up defeating the witch from the candy cottage. After that event, thanks to their powers, they become witch hunters, swearing to bring every evil witch to justice, no matter where she was hiding. Thus, they are recruited by a town's mayor to investigate a kidnapping spree which seemed without ending. Armed with courage, weapons and a bit of help from some locals, they begin their quest of eliminating the source of evil which lurked without any hitch.It's an enjoyable and funny parody of the famous Hansel & Gretel story which seems determined to do anything to entertain. It manages to do so, mostly, due to its humor, intense action, combat and story. It combines sophisticated guns with a world in which people live in cottages and read printed newspapers...what a mix! As a parody, it doesn't pay attention to details, the characters are very simplistic and it's story is linear, but despite its problems, it is a good movie which provides a good dose of adrenaline and entertainment whenever needed.

Tommy Wirkola knew exactly what he was doing and how to do it to be most effective. This movie expects you to turn your brain off (if you didn't already guessed that from the title).Witch Hunters is genuine fun. I had a blast from the beginning to the end. The action was nice, the jokes were funny and blood was spilled extensively and profanities were not used scarcely (it's nice to see an R-rated movie that uses it's rating in these days).I enjoyed performance of both main characters, though I like both Renner and Arterton, so if you have no strong feelings about them (or you don't like them) take this point with caution.If you're looking for a fun action movie, this just might be what you're looking for
