8.8/10. An ingenious take off on the fairy tale. I found it pretty good with Famke Janssen doing a marvelous job as the Grand Dark Witch Muriel. The pairing of Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton as Hansel and Gretel was great. They gave off good vibes, seemed at ease playing the bad ass heroes. The story's well paced, doesn't bore its audience nor is it slow. I found it engaging and witty all throughout. This is one that's underrated when it shouldn't be.
Gretel: Let the girl go, or I'm gona blow your sheriff's brains all over these fucking hillbillies.
Trivia: The director, Tommy Wirkola, has an uncredited cameo of sorts (seen on screen longer than a usual cameo) as one of Sheriff Berringer's four deputies. Stuntman Wolfgang Lindner portrayed one of the deputies, and is uncredited as well.

Answer: Edward is not Hansel and Gretel's father. He helps them because he is a troll. Trolls serve witches.
