The Brothers Grimm (2005)

This movie came on at 3 am on one of the movie channels I get with DirecTV. When I jokingly asked Gary if I should watch it, he said:

"I saw that at Blockbuster tonight. I didn;t pick up the box."

My sentiments exactly. I know its wrong to make assumptions, to assume that the critics are right, and that the lack of success at the box office is indicative of a lack of quality in a movie, but seriously . . . The Brothers Grimm?

Matt Damon, I respect you. You are one of the most important actors of today. The Departed, The Good Shepherd, and The Talented Mr. Ripley are three great movies, thanks to your great performances, but seriously . . . The Brothers Grimm?

Heath Ledger, you've yet to earn my respect. Yeah, you're a hunk and yeah, the artsy people loved Brokeback, but you haven't impressed me. I haven't given up hope on you though. I am thinking you're going to do a great job as the Joker in the next batman movie. I think it's cos your mouth is kind of big. But seriously . . . A Knight's Tale?

I didn't watch this movie, so i'm not going to rate it. My guesstimation: 3-6 stars out of 10.
