action

Once there was a dark time in a bad place in the fairy tale world, was commonplace in magic, as the dark wizard Rumplestiltskin ( Rumpelstiltskin ) destroyed the magic mirror to create such a portal that will transport it directly into the modern human world . Once there, he plans to enslave the human world and destroy all that is good. However, he is not the only one drawn through the portal that has been created. Snow White ( Snow White ) , the queen of the fairy tale kingdom, follows him through time and space into the modern world and also her friends Cinderella ( Cinderella ) , Rapunzel, Red ( Little Red Riding Hood ) and Sleeping Beauty ( Sleeping Beauty ) . Together they want to prevent Rumplestiltskin from continuing its conquest. Each of the women uses their individual superpower. Sleeping Beauty can make enemies fall asleep, Rapunzel uses her long braid as a kind of morning star , Snow White can freeze everything, Little Red Riding Hood is an excellent huntress and Cinderella can do some magic.

Rumplestiltskin, on the other hand, can direct and influence people as he sees fit, and they offer him no resistance, because they have no magic. After his arrival in the human world, the villain quickly becomes the mayor of a city, and at his side acts the big, almost as bad wolf.

It is therefore now in the hands of the power women to save the human world and also to protect the fairytale kingdom from Rumplestiltskin for all time. The friends not only have to fight against Rumplestiltskin, but also come across a number of demonic beings and wolf people, and the police and politics have also brought Rumplestiltskin under his control.

Reviews

Contrary to what the title suggests, Avengers Grimm has little to do with the Marvel Comics. The adaptation of Avengers as part of the film title (based on Avengers: Age of Ultron) was only implemented by replacing the superheroes Iron-Man, Thor, Hulk and Captain America fighting together with female fairy tale characters with comparable superpowers, and therefore more likely like a theatrical version of "Once Upon a Time" .

After The Asylum mockbusters were mostly torn up shortly after their release, the reviews for Avengers Grimm were downright friendly for a mockbuster. According to some critics, this time it was one of the better Asylum films. The plot is well thought out, and individual ideas work very well.

In July 2017, the film was shown as part of the Tele 5 series The Worst Films of All Time .

continuation

With Avengers Grimm: Time Wars by Maximilian Elfeldt , the film received a sequel, which was released on May 1, 2018.
