A két Grimm testvér, Jacob (Heath Ledger) és Wilhelm (Matt Damon) szélhámosságból élnek, és a francia hatóságok elől menekülnek. A testvérek rövidesen a fantáziájuk teremtette mesevilágban találják magukat, ahol egy bűvös erdőben titokzatos körülmények között fiatal lányok tűnnek el. Itt tényleg szükségük lesz minden trükkre, ellenfelük ugyanis a Tükör királynő (Monica Bellucci). (SPI)

Teljes mértékben rutinos történelmi mese, amelyben nincs semmi meglepő, sem izgalmas. A sötét tónus, amelyet a gótikus díszletek és a sodró operatőri munka is alátámaszt, itt is jelen van, de koncepcionálisan Burton Az Álmosvölgy legendája című filmjének árnyékában marad. Karakterek és történet átlagos, nagyobb ambíciók nélkül. Ha ez egy tisztán cseh film lenne, azt mondanám, hogy Hollywooddal tudunk összehasonlítani magunkat. De a nagy költségvetésű hollywoodi produkció keretében, ráadásul az egyébként mindig innovatív és jellegzetes Terry Gilliam irányításával... no way.

The visual aspect is perfect, Terry Gilliam knows how to work reasonably within the budget, but if I ever believed in creative differences during filming, it is precisely in the case of The Brothers Grimm. Its curse is an incredible mess of a plot, where I sometimes can't keep track of how many digressions the story has taken. But when an unexpected action romp shows up about an hour later, it's worth it until the very end, I am rooting for both brothers and holding my breath during the suspenseful scenes. In combination with the perfect portrayal of the villainous general, I ended up being reconciled, but otherwise, this woodland odyssey got underway quite conflictingly.

Though the subject seemed woefully Gilliamian, its processing into a worn and uninteresting script with extraordinary consistency filtered out everything that went beyond the first plan. Gilliam was left with a visually engaging but desperately empty narrative about two brothers hunting down false ghosts until they find themselves face to face with the real supernatural. Thanks to the direction, it was not a completely reprehensible mess, but despite this fact, The Brothers Grimm offers little more than a lavish quest, decent tricks, uninteresting music, mediocre performances by the main characters and good performances by some of the supporting characters (experienced Gilliams Stormare and Pryce, and the great Bellucci). Instead of a carnival somewhere on the uncertain edge of rationality and irrationality, instead of the dazzling imagination and cinematic magic that Gilliam wields like few, all that remains is typical Hollywood with a flimsy script, colorful backdrops, and a few good gags (but weak-minded by Gilliam's standards). I understand why Terry had the worst shoot of his career... his worst film came out of it. Three stars for an immeasurable and futile effort to turn a fart into a ball.

This decadent fairy tale-non-fairy tale, set against the dark backdrop of a mysterious forest and a black-humored story proves that as Terry Gilliam grew older, it was as if he was entering his filmmaking adolescence and his only goal was to provoke. However, the film provokes cleverly, boldly, and entertainingly all at the same time, so anyone who has even an ounce of flair for a slightly "different" narrative will certainly enjoy at least the divine Peter Stormare, and as a bonus will be given one little white kitten!

Aside from the barely half-minute scene of a French dinner by the woods, there's not a shred of Gilliam in the entire movie. There is nothing by which you would recognize this as being his work. I'm exaggerating, but not that much. Terry made something that no one expected from a genius of his format - a well-done example of film-craft. Nothing less, but, unfortunately, nothing more either.
