Brothers Grimm
The Good:
Some of the shots were amazing, the camera movements were very cool.
Anything with Monica Bellucci is alright with me.
The acting was ok, if a little melodramatic.
The Bad:
I found the film really predictable every step of the way.
It didn't seem as "inspired" as most of Gilliam's movies, I am a huge fan most of the time.
The "fairy tale" parts were cliched at best.
It felt very long.
Overall: Not Gilliam's best movie at all. It is maybe a 28% The Adventures of Baron Munchausen or maybe a 7% The Fisher King.

Thanks for reminding me of this film. I'd still like to see it, crap aside.
It's worth seeing - just don't go into it expecting well ANYTHING you'd normally get from Gilliam.
