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!!!!!!
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.
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.
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.
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.
This movie is pretty scary, even though I enjoyed it very much. Please do not show this to your young kids, they will be extremely disturbed by the scene when a cat is thrown into a fan, resulting in its death. The movie is pretty scary. I would say 12 and up.
