Great, another overly feminist film. How fuc*king great. What is up with Hollywood for these last few months?! December and January have been abysmal. Cats, Black Christmas 2019, The Grudge 2020, Dolittle, and now this! Oh god

What they did well, they did very well. Cinematography, production, score and the performance of the leads, Gretel and the Witch, were excellent. What they did poorly was a slow story that meandered and mumbled too much. What they didWhat they did well, they did very well. Cinematography, production, score and the performance of the leads, Gretel and the Witch, were excellent. What they did poorly was a slow story that meandered and mumbled too much. What they did terribly was the embarrassingly woke casting of minor characters. This kind of thing is just eyerollingly stupid. Do a Ghanian version of Hansel and Gretel with Ghanaian actors and we’ll go see it. Don’t shoehorn diversity in for the sake of it where it is obviously out of place. It detracts and diminishes minorities and Europeans alike.… Expand

PC, intersectional bastardized fairy tale. Acting is fine, sets are fine, story that the world is driven by magic woman’s decisions and not faith family fidelity is social justice swill. Glad I did matinee with senior discount.

Sooo Bad. Not scary, not a rich story, boring, one of the worst movies I spent money on and I really wanted to walk out of the movie because it was that disinteresting but I was out with my Mom on a daytrip in a new town so we sat through andSooo Bad. Not scary, not a rich story, boring, one of the worst movies I spent money on and I really wanted to walk out of the movie because it was that disinteresting but I was out with my Mom on a daytrip in a new town so we sat through and endured it. We left both feeling like we wasted our time. It doesn't have appeal in any way- Do not waste your time.… Expand

The best part about this movie is the run time of 90 minutes. I should not be bored at 60 minutes. The narration is completely unnecessary in the movie. Plot holes are distracting to the viewer experience. This is a watch for free onThe best part about this movie is the run time of 90 minutes. I should not be bored at 60 minutes.

This is a watch for free on streaming service after there is nothing else on your list type of movie. Don't waste your hard earned money on it. I will give an up for some solid visuals but its too little, too late.… Expand

The acting didn’t even save it. It was dull and dreary. It was not scary, just yuck. It made us feel like we needed fresh air afterwards. It is a firm NO. Skip it… Expand

Alice Krige's performance was excellent, and I suppose something can be said for the cinematography and art direction. It's the writing that really brings this title down. Do not recommend.

The name of the tale is "Hansel and gretel", not "gretel and Hansel", so 0/10.

I basically can watch any movie and find silver linings.
Hell, I even enjoyed recently '47 METERS DOWN: Uncaged' and it's a very bad and basic movie.

Filme fraco, mesmo o começo tendo a fotografia parecida com o filme "a bruxa" esse filme não consegue emendar a história.

Pretty bad movie honestly it just doesn't delivery in any aspect at all. It was pretty bad. Not scary and the story was lame, one of the worst "Horror/scary" movies I watched in a long time. Gonna give it a 3 out of 10. Not recommended at all.
