- Critics' reviews
-
-
"This aimless epic about a pair of charlatan brothers sinks under the weight of a problematic script"
-
"It's the visual equivalent of the 'Sabre Dance,' and its only oxygen comes from the actors, who are quite good"
-
"The Brothers Grimm gives you plenty to look at, but it's not much to see"
-
"This is one of the most visually off-putting films ever made by a director who supposedly makes beautiful pictures."
-
"Hugely ambitious but often failing to live up to those ambitions, Terry Gilliam's long-awaited The Brothers Grimm emerges as a folkloric adventure that intermittently entertains"
-
"If The Brothers Grimm flies apart like a badly designed airplane (and it does), it still has more going for it than most of the movie fare this summer."
