So any of you folks seen it? Opinion?

Wow, I'm a bit shocked, and disappointed, that no one here saw this. I will admit it got some crappy reviews, if I remember correctly.
However, I saw it tonight, and it was pretty awesome actually. The gore and FX were top shelf, as were the witches.
I definitely enjoyed the look and feel of this film, and I'd definitely see a sequel, were it made.
I really went into this with low expectations, admittedly. I'm not normally a big Jeremy Renner fan, but Hawkeye shines through here. It is kind of funny he's doing the bow thing again. Anyhoo...
I liked it alot, and would definitely recommend it. Famke Janssen is great as the head baddie witchlady. The chick who plays Gretel is also one foin choice piece of ayass, as well. The piece de whatever is a lovable troll named Edward, he steals every scene he's in. I don't know how this got trashed. Maybe it shouldn't have been mostly only shown as 3D, lower prices might've helped it out some.
Go see it if it's still around, or rent/buy the dvd/bluray and watch that badboy on an HD bigscreen. Very action packed, very visually pleasing.

To be honest, I'm getting really tired of old faerie tale (and historical) characters being "name raped" to sell new pictures.

'Abraham Lincoln - Vampire Hunter'
'Snow White and the Huntsman'
and now 'Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters'

What's next? 'The Three Little Pigs - Werewolf Killers', or 'Rose Red: Dwarf Smasher'?

Seen the trailer, why do they need such stupid looking firearms?
