video review : Gretel And Hansel

video review : Gretel And Hansel

This is an artsy take on the Brothers Grimm tale, but, at first glance, you might have trouble determining who is who. Hansel and Gretel look like boys. Gretel is the “pretty” one the story is mostly focused on.

The visual style of the movie, led by cinematographer Galo Olivares, is gloomy and exquisite. It’s the plodding pace of the plot, marked with highfalutin character monologues, that might bore you to death.
