Review of Skinwalkers (2006) by Dean L — 29 Jan 2008
This movie had some nice shots of autumn foliage. Why would I start with this as part of my review? Because the foliage and the beautiful Rhona Mitra are about the only reasons to watch this movie.
Attempting to capitalize upon the success of the "Underworld" franchise this movie takes on the pros and cons of being a werewolf and those that would see the "curse end" versus those who feel "blessed" by "lunacy.".
The plot was almost interesting, but so poorly executed.
The action was fierce, but...ridiculous. Can't anyone aim a gun anymore? Even fully automatic weapons never seem to hit their mark at close range. The acting was terrible.
The makeup/costumes were just awful! Robin Williams looks more like a werewolf in "Jumanji" than any of the actors in this film.
Scenes are so long and drawn out...this movie could have been 15 minutes long and...well it still would have stunk.
You cannot even make this into a good "cheese" movie. It was just plain bad.
So, like I said...nice foliage...bad movie.
