The Brothers Grimm
No curse we can't reverse, No spell we can't break, No demon we can't
exterminate Set in early 18th century French-occupied Germany,
The Brothers Grimm stars Matt Damon as Will Grimm and Heath Ledger as Jake
Grimm, siblings who travel the countryside as snake-oil salesmen, convincing
unsuspecting towns that they are haunted and agreeing to get rid of the
demons–for a price. In the meantime, they set their tales down in writing,
creating a wealth of oddball, offbeat, and frightening characters. But after
they are caught by General Delatombe (Jonathan Pryce) and his sidekick, Cavaldi
(Peter Stormare), they are sent to the tiny village of Marbaden to solve the
mysterious disappearance of a number of young girls, placing them in the middle
of a fantasy world unlike any they'd ever invented. They enlist the help of a
peasant woman, Angelika (Lena Headey), and they set off for the evil forest to
save the lives of the girls… and themselves.

Critic Reviews:

cluttered up the multi-plexes this summer. " –
Richard Crouse
- " Wide-eyed, messy, lustrous, rich with enchantment, both giddy and
perverse. " – Fernando F. Croce
