Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters IMAX 3D



Movie: Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters IMAX 3D
Genre: fantasy
Synopsis: A somewhat new take on the Hansel and Gretel story.  In this one, they are abandoned by their father, get captured by a witch, kill the witch – and then go on to become professional witch-killers-for-hire.  Armed with an impressive array of weapons (from a machine-gun style crossbow to a hand-crank stun gun) they go from town to town hunting and killing witches/

My two cents: I had a lot of fun watching this movie.  The futuristic but medieval weaponry provided interesting twists.  Both Hansel (Jeremy Renner) and Gretel (Gemma Arterton) are well-portrayed as bad-ass witch-killers.  The story of why they were abandoned gets answered.  I would love to see at least a sequel or two.
