Preamble: What Is The Brothers Grimsby?

Most are familiar with the fairy tales of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm — the German scholars who collected Cinderella, Hansel & Gretel, and Rapunzel. Far fewer know of the other Grimm siblings: Gareth and Bartholomew Grimsby, two estranged brothers from the English fens who, in the early 19th century, attempted their own collection of folk tales — with disastrous, profane, and often inexplicable results. Rotten Tomatoes – ~35% (critics), ~45% (audience)

Released as Grimsby in the UK, the film is a high-octane mix of James Bond-style action and Sacha Baron Cohen’s signature "shock humor."
