Grimm’s fairy tales are alive and well this weekend when Jeremy Renner leads a cast of ghastly ghouls in, “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters” (R). Will this hybrid flick fall to the same fate as the vampire slaying sixteenth President or will it devour the rest of the pack? Well maybe not if Jason Statham has something to say about it! “Parker” (R) features the mainstay action star as his typical anit-hero best. This time he is joined on screen by the fine behind of Jennifer Lopez. Either way, we will see you at the movies!
