	CNS Movie Review: The Brothers Grimm
		But, from that point on, this take on the lives of those fairy-tale-writing scribes couldn't be more different, as "The Brothers Grimm" (Dimension) is very much an adult fantasy, though a visually inventive, highly atmospheric one at that.
		The brothers go from town to town in French-occupied Germany hoodwinking the superstitious 18th-century peasants into paying them exorbitant sums in return for sham ghostbustings of witches and the like.
		The brothers report to the town of Marbaden, and discover the forest is under the thrall of an actual witch's curse, and that one by one the town's children are disappearing.

		The elder brother, Jacob, studied at Marburg and at Paris, and in 1808 he was appointed librarian to Jerome Bonaparte, King of Westphalia.
		Both the Grimms were dismissed in 1837 for joining in the protest against the abolition of the Constitution by the King of Hanover.
		The two brothers, both learned in other branches of the literature of their own country, gained enduring fame, mostly from these stories--ostensibly written for the education of the young.

		According to the MGM studio, Brothers Grimm will be a popular advantageous film full of mysterious myths and spectres with the leading characters of the Grimm brothers wandering round the villages collecting fairy tales and legends.

		All in all, "The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm" is a slightly odd curio, but suitable entertainment for the whole family.

	James Sanford reviews The Brothers Grimm
		Unlike the old Cinerama epic "The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm," which was supposedly based on the actual lives of the famed storytellers, Kruger's plot is purely fictitious.
		The Grimms, bookish Jacob (Heath Ledger) and skeptic Will (Matt Damon), are a pair of phony exorcists, traveling through Europe and collecting fees from superstitious villagers who are eager to get rid of demons, trolls and witches.
		The Grimms can avoid the gallows, however, if they can vanquish the sinister force that has been luring maidens into the cursed Forest of Marbaden, a place so uninviting that even most of the animals have moved out.

		Closely compare Terry Gilliam's "The Brothers Grimm" with the 1962 Cinerama release "The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm" and you have an X-ray into how far irony and flip cheekiness have invaded the movies.
		As designed by Gilliam's team (the Grimms are called Team Grimm in the dialogue), this is gothic comedy fortified by superstition.
		When the Grimms enter into the woods, where maidens have been abducted by a queenly witch and kept spellbound in crypts guarded by horrors, the brothers must deal with dangers beyond their usual flip confection.

	The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm (1962)
		Plot: In Germany, the Grimm brothers, Wilhelm and Jacob, are at work compiling the family history of a self-important Duke.
		Producer George Pal is best known for his sf films during the 1950s, which included the classic likes of Destination Moon (1950), When Worlds Collide (1951), The War of the Worlds (1953) and The Time Machine (1960).
		What the film fails to portray in any way is the fact the two brothers’ interest in fairy-tales was not some obsessive whim, but rather came from a scholarly interest in Teutonic folklore.

		Miklós Rózsa supplies the next five pieces, all from The Power, followed by one composition each from Tom Thumb and The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm, respectively written by Ken E. Jones and Harline.
		The compositions for The Power, in particular "Death on the Centrifuge" and "Transformation," are impressive, too, juxtaposing an acoustic guitar and cimbalom (a zitherlike instrument) with brash orchestration, fashioning a mood that's alternately intimate and intimidating.
		At the same time, the upbeat "Prologue/Main Title" from The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm radiates merriment and, via a sweet whistling sequence, an enchanting, Disney-esque innocence.

		But his latest, The Brothers Grimm, is a great disappointment, though more entertaining than the dour 1962 The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm, one of the only two feature films shot in Cinerama.
		The movie is apparently intended to contrast the rational French Enlightenment with the magic and mystery of German Romanticism by having the dreamy Jacob Grimm (Heath Ledger) and his more practical brother Will (Matt Damon) became the victims of the French forces occupying Germany during the Napoleonic War.
		Working as itinerant con men extracting money from gullible folk by pretending to exorcise demons, they're spared the guillotine by a French general on condition they investigate the abduction of 10 young girls in a primeval forest near a remote village.
