mattkratz This movie aims at a "horror" approach at the "Little Red Riding Hood" fairy tale, and only sort of succeeds. Amanda Seyfried and the rest of the cast is good, but it only works in spurts. I liked the scenes where she talks to the wolf, but for the most part the movie fails to entice. They could have done a better job. It was average for the most part and could have been better. Imagine how good it could have been if it had worked! It dragged a lot, and in some places provided some good scary parts, and I thought it was OK, but not great.** out of ****
Benedito Dias Rodrigues Most of the people didn't like this movie,but l enjoy...maybe the old tale has been changed but the primary elements was good enough. Althroug is a Studio's movie without external scenes and helped by graphic computer the movie works... and with the cast like Gary Oldman,Julie Christie and Virginia Madsen together with Amanda Seyfried and the young actors hold the picture...the false track in the script let the viewers confused who is the beast anyway....good entertainment really.
jneroh21 Now I admit that I don't mind bad movies sometimes. I have enjoyed many cheesy slasher sequels, and I didn't even mind the village. As a movie lover it is rare for me to turn a movie off before the end, out of hope for finding a redeeming point. I couldn't make it through this movie, I even tried again a couple years later with the same result. I've read many reviews with twilight comparisons but honestly you're better off watching twilight. At least you know what to expect from that and it doesn't try to sell itself as something it's not. A dark retelling of a classic Grimm fairytale this is not. Bugs bunny did the fairytale more justice than this movie came close to. I'll spare you the details of everything this movie does wrong, just please spare yourself the torture of watching it.
juneebuggy I liked this, it wasn't great, but it was good enough, an interesting interpretation of a Grimm's fairy tale and clearly aimed at the Twilight fans. Well either that or Catherine Hardwicke can only make a certain style of movie because style wise they are very similar. The opening is actually almost identical with overhead forest shots and a girl's voice-over. The CGI wolf is identical, the filming location was also the same which didn't help matters and then we have Billy Burke AKA "Charlie" as the Dad.I did get wrapped up in this though, following a young medieval girl who falls for an orphaned woodcutter even though her parents have arranged for her to marry another boy, her sister has just been killed and a wolf is stalking the village. The love triangle was suitably angsty and the mystery of "who" the wolf is going to be was well done (I didn't at all suspect that outcome). Unfortunately the flashbacky way of explaining things was kinda lame.Some of the cinematography is beautiful here, the contrast of Valarie's red cape billowing in the white snow, the cool look of Grandma's house (I want to live there). I did have a bit of an issue with the fact that its continually snowing yet nobody seems to feel the cold and dresses in t-shirty type clothes. A decent cast here too including Gary Oldman as the werewolf hunter, Lukas Haas, Virginia Madsen and of course Amanda Seyfried as Valarie. 12/17/14 Burnaby B.C plays some medieval folksy town where snow isn't cold.
