Red Riding Hood review

Fill a very short fairy tale to fill 90 minutes is not easy, but Catherine Hardwicke has a chance. The new Red Riding Hood film is the classic tale, but brief, the girl in the red cloak and gives it the Hollywood treatment. This type of project is always risky, especially when filling is much needed.

The result is a kind of inevitable, the story is stretched to the end and then some. It's easy to blame the Director at times like this, but to be fair, it is difficult to see how someone has done this successfully. The film has an uneasy feeling to the itself, bordering on paranoia. Why are they watching? Did you have a happy childhood? Not the kind of psycho babble that is expected from this type of film.

Also felt that the script writers have been very lazy. The story of little Red Riding Hood is so well known that the public would have accepted ornaments history. If they had been in the right context it is. Hollywood has taken hundreds of books and, with a little artistic license has played around with them to make it watchable.

There is nothing wrong with a fairy tale drag kicking and screaming into the 21st century. Should be retained, however, the charm and magic that made a fairy fairies in the first place. Additions to the story should be in the same context, to the extent that for fragments of the original story among post-modern nonsense.

This film has a great cast, but rather out of place. Gary Oldman The great voices of a cleric who is at home with a tank of the machine as bodyguards. We may never have realized that Little Red Riding Hood is not in Iraq. This is how are you doing scenes of this film very hard to see because they are constantly wondering why?

The best parts of the movie are the bits that stick to the story. Unfortunately, a very small amount Time caught up in 90 minutes of confusion and chaos. This is not the first time that this story brought to the big screen, and have never had much success. How ever much more they try, the more stretching to get at all times.

Halfway through it hits you how familiar it seems, but in the wrong way. Then remember what Catherine Hardwicke is the most famous. Yes, Twilight is a hood. Each male character seems to have gone directly from a calendar and Edward Cullen is expecting to turn a moment's notice.

The most famous lines make an appearance, but as late they raise a laugh from the audience. They seem lost in the irony of it all. At day's end, this movie will make money, but for all the wrong reasons.
