- Synopsis
- In the re-telling of this classic fable, the story begins at the end. Chief Grizzly and Detective Bill Stork investigate a domestic disturbance at Granny's cottage, involving a karate-kicking Red Riding Hood, a sarcastic wolf and an oafish Woodsman. The charges are many: breaking and entering, intent to eat, wielding an axe without a license, but these unusual suspects have their story to tell first.
- Critics' reviews
-
-
"The result is a wacked kiddie Rashomon in which the different versions dovetail with a logic as impeccable as it is flat-out buggy. So who do we root for? Everyone and no one."
-
"'Hoodwinked' occupies some considerably shaky turf situated uncomfortably between 'Shrek' and dreck."
-
"'Hoodwinked' hasn't much time for soul or sentiment, but it is certainly amusingly smart and sassy."
-
"Zippily written and directed by the team of Cory Edwards, Todd Edwards and Tony Leech, Hoodwinked just wants the audience to have fun - something that's been in sparse supply in theaters of late."
-
"'Hoodwinked' treats 'Red Riding Hood' as a detective story we've never really understood until now, with nuttier motivations, more complex characters and a screwier climax."
-
"Like an early Woody Allen film or a classic Marx brothers feature, more of Hoodwinked's gags flop than hit, but they come at such a steady rate, you hardly notice."
