Gretel & Hansel Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Becca James
[A] visually gruesome and beautiful bildungsroman that gives the classic story new life.
Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam
Charles Koplinski
There are quite a few interesting ideas in Osgood Perkins' "Gretel and Hansel," making its botched execution all the more frustrating.
SpookyAstronauts
Emma Wolfe
If you're looking for something beautiful to watch definitely check it out it.
Thrillist
Scott Weinberg
A quietly compelling and surprisingly unique piece of genre cinema. Plus it's really beautiful to look at. Expect this one to be re-appraised in a decade.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
Just like a witch's spell that makes something rotten appear to be enticing, Gretel & Hansel is a horror movie that looks visually thrilling, but it's really an ugly mess.
Substream Magazine
Murjani Rawls
Despite its slow spots, Gretel & Hansel is a refreshing and visually inventive spin on a very old tale that cautions perception and things that lie beneath the surface.
Nightmarish Conjurings
Caitlin Kennedy
The entirety of the film is built on a tension as delicious as the witch's sweets.
Austin Chronicle
Matthew Monagle
This is Young Adult horror at its finest.
Polygon
Charles Bramesco
If Gretel & Hansel doesn't turn out to be one of the year's genre highlights, 2020 will be a very good year at the movies indeed.

Gretel & Hansel is not the fairy tale you know.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Claudia Puig
On the plus side, this has very striking production design and impressive cinematography... [But] it's bleak where it should be intense. It's stylish, but not very scary.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Like Perkins' previous efforts, his latest operates on mood and atmosphere over narrative, and it's one that lacks mainstream appeal. The film is mesmerizing style over substance, but one that transports you if you're open to its high-concept spell.

It doesn't feel like there's any meat on this screenplay.
TheWrap
William Bibbiani
It's got 'cult movie' written all over it [...] and audiences who tune into its unusual wavelength will no doubt be grateful for such a beautiful, frightening, intelligent new venture into an age-old nightmare.
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
Beginning with the reversed names in its title, the film announces itself as a distinctly feminine spin on the Grimm fairy tale.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
"Gretel & Hansel" is as visually arresting as it is tedious, a 90-minute movie that really should have been a three-minute music video for Marilyn Manson or Ozzy Osbourne.
Los Angeles Times
Kimber Myers
While [Perkins] offers a stunning feast for the eyes, the substance is likely to leave viewers still hungry.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Essentially the story of a young woman coming into her power, "Gretel & Hansel" is quietly sinister, yet too underdeveloped to truly scare.
Variety
Andrew Barker
And for all of the care that went into its look and its sound, the world of the film never feels more than halfway formed; in the rush to tie up its narrative loose ends, it leaves its more intriguing thematic ones hanging.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Gretel & Hansel may alienate some horror movie fans with its extremely leisurely pacing and emphasis on atmosphere and mood rather than visceral shocks. But while the film certainly demands patience, it provides ample rewards with its lush stylization.
