Capsule review

Those who have clamored for an edgy, modern take on Hansel and Gretel finally have a movie at the end of their bread-crumb trail. Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton play those feisty kids, all grown up and now bounty hunters who will push witches into ovens for money — while dressed in black leather and wielding high-tech weapons, of course. Rated R. 88 minutes. Screens in 3-D and 2-D.
