Did you know that Into The Woods is an acclaimed Broadway musical? I didn't know that going in. I'm sure it's a fine one, but it didn't win me over as a film.

Into The Woods is an amalgamation of a few of the Grimm brothers fairy tales: Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, and the one about the childless baker. All played an important role, but Rapunzel was cut short. Not sure why, but it seemed if Rapunzel's story was half hearted. She was in it, then she wasn't.

I believe that this film wasn't targeted to me.
