Red Riding Hood Trailers

Teenage Claire would rather hang out with her friends at the mall than to stay home with her brother Matt while Grandma babysits. Who wouldn't? Unfortunately, Grandma isn't about to let Claire out of the house. Worse, she insists that Claire and Matt listen to her reworking of the Brothers Grimm classic tale "Little Red Riding Hood". Fortunately, Grandma has a sense of humor, and adds some modern twists. Claire imagines herself as Red, and her brother, parents and grandma as....her brother, parents and grandma.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

I watched this movie last night with some friends. They warned us previously that it was the worst movie ever made, but because of that reason it was hilarious. I agree with them whole-heartedly, but I enjoyed watching it and could watch it over and over just because it makes me laugh so hard. The grandmother's floating yoga moves were quite a crack-up, along with Red's father's knitted red sweater. The movie had everyone screaming while Red was in her grandmother's bedroom with the wolf in disguise. That and other parts are questionable for young children. The biggest problem for me was Red Riding Hood's extremely short skirt. It bothered me throughout the whole movie. So if you can stand watching this sort of movie and are in need of a good laugh, I highly recommend this one.

For me, the best reason to watch this Red Riding Hood version is the Hunter played by Henry Cavill. He is so charming here, and what a beautiful man. The music is fun too. The Director also filmed Grease and Blue Lagoon. I enjoy those movies also. I do not understand why so many people are writing so much negative stuff about this movie. Really this was fun, and yes there is a few places that are not so great. But I don't care. If I like watching a movie, I do not care if someone else puts it down so much. If you want to view an incredible wonderful and handsome man like this Henry Cavill, then you will almost certainly want to rent this movie. Hats off to Henry and everyone else. Enjoy.

This movie is not for everyone. It's one of those that some people probably aren't going to get. It's different. It plays like a music video for the most part. I was hooked after the first song in the film. The musical bits are great, and the cast is great. This is a great family film, and it also has a great deal of humor. I rented this (I work at a video store so I watch everything) with low expectations, and I was pleasantly surprised. The young lady that plays Red Riding Hood is great, hopefully this film will get her many roles to come. If you're looking for something different, and fun, then this is it. It will be available the 27th, so check it out!

Relying on the positive reviews above, we saw a free screening of this last night. Now I KNOW that filmmakers plant positive reviews, because there is no way an objective individual could have written these. "Destined to become a 'cult classic'"?? The theater was packed, apparently with friends and families of the production crew, because only a few of us walked out by the first hour.The songs were the most literal I've ever heard in a musical – "don't take the short cut, honey, there's a wolf in the woods..". Debi Mazar's eyes blinked furiously as she struggled to sing. Fortunately, most of the tunes lasted for only a few lines.Now, whoever plays the wolf in this tale should be charming and seductive. Instead, we get Joey Fatone, ex N'Syncer, living up to his last name as he's not aged well. He's not exactly lithe with his extra 50 pounds and junior high school-quality makeup and out-of-tune singing. Seriously, this guy was in vocal group? The rest of the actors are semi-adequate, but can't do much about the unimaginative script. You know, it is possible to write for adults and children at the same time – see under "Pixar".On the positive side, the virtual sets looked nice and were well-integrated with the actors. And it wasn't as offensive as "Crash".
