Hoodwinked! (2005)
6/10
Four Different Versions of a Classic Fairytale
8 June 2007
The recipes of candies of the goody shops have been stolen by the Goody Bandit, and many animals are out of business. While the police are chasing the criminal, there is a mess at Granny's house evolving Little Red Hiding Hood, The Wolf, The Woodsman and Granny, disturbing the peace in the forest and they are all arrested by the inpatient Chief Grizzly. Detective Nicky Flipper is in charge of the investigation, and each accused gives the own version for the incident. The smart Flipper uses the information to disclose the identity of the evil Goody Bandit.

"Hoodwinked!" is a funny joke with the classic fairytale "Little Red Hiding Hood" and "Rashômon". The same event is showed through different perspectives in four different versions told by Little Red Hiding Hood, The Wolf, The Woodsman and Granny. The trailer of "Hoodwinked!" is actually an edition of the best moments and gags of this animation. I saw the trailer a couple of months ago, and I was expecting a movie better and better. The sarcastic Wolf has the best lines in this entertaining film. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Deu a Louca na Chapeuzinho" ("Little Hood Got Crazy")
