The Brothers Grimm has enough haunting, fairy-tale imagery for 10 movies, but no emotional kick to drive those images home.

It's kind of cold and it's kind of a mess, but I thought it was a glorious mess and it looks so great and it is so interesting and there is so much going on that I have to recommend it on a very mild level.

This time, Gilliam's storytelling is even more convoluted than his bookkeeping.

Jammed with stuff and all but empty of drama.

The best thing to be said about this expensive but drab wannabe mirthmaker is that it has some of its director's quirky touches.
