Good movie with Bad Taste.
Had a lot of plots going on, but was a good movie, unfortuanely had some bad spots in it. It is rated for 13 year olds, but I disagree, especially with the 'kitten scene' that was very a bad place in the movie and in my opion should not have been put in there. The producer/director should be very ashamed! Very bad idea for children!!!!!!

This is a good movie, but SO FREAKING SCARY!! Absolutely no kids under 13. They'll have nightmares for weeks (if they're a wimp like me.)

Two thumbs up but not for under the age of twelve
Ok, I am not good with scary movies, yet I loved this one. Of coarse you probably won't think this is scary. I would not recomend this for anyone under the age of twelve...At all! But twelve and up,(those who like semi-scary) I would watch it. I give a two thumbs up!

Not the worst thing out there for 13+
Given the other choices of current movies, Bros Grimm isn't too bad FOR TEENS and adults. (This is NOT a kids movie.) There is some violence but nothing excessive or gross. There are some scary bits but they're just scary enough to get your heart racing, not give you nightmares. It's pretty to look at and weaves together almost every fairy tale you can think of. An entertaining flick with a happy ending.

Great Fun
This movie is not what many expect and that's good. You really have to pay attention. Can you name all of the fairly tales it refrences? Very good ending. Just enough shock potential, good humor, great acting and video. Lots of energy and very fun to watch. 13yr old loved it.

Different...
This movie was a weird collaberation of several fairy tales and fables. The violence is suitable for young adults and up.

NOT What I Expected, But It Was Still Done Very Well.
I expected the expect opposite of what happened in this movie. When I looked over what was to happen as in violence, etc, I thought it would be altogether not that bad. Boy, was I wrong. CommonSense does not give you the full details of what really happened with the violence. Twice, the brothers are in a torture chamber, and while they are in the forest, all of their helpers are killed in horrendous ways. It was very violent and gory, and I am appalled that CommonSense didn't mention much of it. In one scene, a woman is shown skinning and gutting a rabbit like creature, and that would make some of the younger viewers would be either digusted or disturbed. One of the major characters almost die, and there is quite a bit of blood shown in that scene. The whole plot is the murder of 12 young, pretty girls so the queen will be able to regain her youth. Even the plot was fairly violent. I would reccomend this movie, but not for kids that are younger than maybe 12 or 13. The actors were not especially great, and Matt Damon was much better in the Bourne Trilogy, compared to this. Maybe it was the differences in the plot, but it was very surprising for me to see him act this oddly (?). Altogether, though, it was a good but bizarre moviie, that I would altogether reccomend.

Horror movie portrayed as adventure comedy
Despite the humorous trailer and good reviews, this is a definite horror movie. By halfway through the movie, about three adults and four children have died in horribly graphic ways. The deaths of only two of the children were NOT shown - all the rest were on-screen. Not appropriate for children of any age, and questionable for adults.

scary scenes and very violent
The only concerns I have about children watching this movie is it is very violent. In one scene half of a man falls out of a tree and his insides can be seen. There is also a scene where a kitten gets kicked into spinning blades and gets shredded to bits. The language mild use of the "s" word that common sense media speaks of is said twice in spanish and then once in german. Most kids wouldnt even know what they meant.
