Continuity mistake: They trick one witch with a record recording of a boy that is lost. H&G are thrown down by it and the witch picks up a branch and begins zooming off like it is a broom. Hansel is behind her, yet despite the witch traveling faster than he is running, somehow he suddenly gets in front of her and smacks her with his gun. (00:31:10)
Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters (2013)
Directed by: Tommy Wirkola
Starring: Famke Janssen, Jeremy Renner, Peter Stormare, Gemma Arterton
Continuity mistake: When the white witch helps and cleans Hansel, the sun changes between shots.
Continuity mistake: Young Hansel and Gretel both get some scratches and cuts on their faces when lost in the woods before finding the candy house. But while they are staring at the witch roasting in the oven, the scratches on Hansel's face have disappeared, but Gretel's remain. (00:06:30)
Trivia: The director, Tommy Wirkola, has an uncredited cameo of sorts (seen on screen longer than a usual cameo) as one of Sheriff Berringer's four deputies. Stuntman Wolfgang Lindner portrayed one of the deputies, and is uncredited as well.
Gretel: Let the girl go, or I'm gona blow your sheriff's brains all over these fucking hillbillies.
Hansel: Some people will say that not all witches are evil, that their powers could be used for good. I say burn them all!

Answer: Edward is not Hansel and Gretel's father. He helps them because he is a troll. Trolls serve witches.
