I thought it was time for a thread for people who actually enjoyed this movie. If you didn't, please don't bother to post here as you will be ignored. If you did feel free to post whatever you liked. (Also beware of spoilers from here on.)
"I know put my earmuffs on the cookie"- Avenue Q
Some parts were rather cheesy, maybe even lame, for example when the glob of mud formed itself into a gingerbread cookie and said 'I taste good!' But beside from that, I think that the movie was wicked. Great acting, interesting theme and the ideas they had were creative and engaging. Also, I must point out the humor in this movie, aswell. Well done.
7.5/10
I loved everything about the Mirror Queen. She was by far my favorite character. The most interesting and complex, in my opinion. There should be a movie soley based on her!

I loved this movie. One of the best movies of this decade. Great idea for a thread as well, much better than a stupid bashing thread.
If you love Cheezit's 100% copy this and make it your signature.share
But I can see why some didn't. The first part of the story was a little boring but once it got to the enchanted forest story the movie took off. It got super awesome. I found myself totally engrossed. Matt and Heath hit their stride down the stretch and it become something special.
shareA slightly awkward start. But, brimming over with creativity and imagination and some lovely perfomances... I liked it very much.
shareIm not a fan of fantasy. I like about 2/3 of what Gilliam does. I dont like excessive cgi. I dont care for movies which are 2 hours even though they are not gripping. But despite all that I liked this film. I was glad I saw it. I was entertained. Its flawed but I see its glass as half full.
I can't understand where some of these people are coming from, I thought it was loads of fun.

Agreed! It's no "The Godfather", but does every movie have to be? It was FUN. Me and my family all had a great time watching it, lots of laughter and surprise at just how far they went with some of the creature and animal scenes, you just don't see stuff like that anymore lol, everyone's so PC these days, it was refreshing to say the least. =)

This is my favorite GIlliam movie! I started a new thread called Excellent.
I really don;t think Heath Ledger would do a bad film. He had too much good taste, and too many offers to to take up a bad one.
<<<I will defend Terry Gilliam to the death because I really think he's one of the greatest filmmakers of all-time, and long after he's gone, his reputation will grow and grow until he is up there with the likes of Kubrick
I totally agree.
<<<But I cannot get into The Brothers Grimm. I can always find enough positive elements in a Gilliam film, even the ones I'm not particularly mad about (e.g. Jabberwocky, The Fisher King), but Grimm doesn't even feel like a Gilliam film. The script is all over the place and the Weinsteins interfered so much that it's virtually unrecognizable in his body of work. There are flashes of Gilliam's brilliance but mostly it feels like a Weinstein film, and a bad one at that.
Maybe it's not the best Gilliam, but none of his movies are real bad. And I enjoyed this more than Fisher King anyway. Well, I also really like fairytales-
