elbales"Logically, all the monsters would eat all the humans at once, and the movie would be over in about three minutes. In the case of The Cave, that would have been a good thing." --Tom Long, Detroit News
"Watching The Brothers Grimm, we keep waiting for Gilliam to fashion the recombinant bits and pieces into something of his own, yet the movie, with its muddy, teeming location backdrops and digitized bugs and demons, is at once frantic and impersonal--a piñata of visual effects that Gilliam keeps smashing, with diminishing returns." --Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly/EW.com

Date: 2005-08-27 11:59 am (UTC)since when are there demons in GBGs tales? I have to recheck my folklore...
but normally there should be the occasional witch, evil relative, dragon, wolf, dwarf, alb, innocent and/or stupid and/or violent hero(ine).
iirc, GBG weren't even into putting the devil in their tales (at least not into their commonly known ones).
so where did he get the demon from? A Spawn invasion!?
