Review of The Wolfman (2010) by Scottn — 28 Feb 2010
Not nearly as bad as the reviews give it credit for. Despite the accusations of this film being "boring", I never got bored with it. The story didn't move along at a real fast pace, but enough where you aren't looking at your watch and wishing something would just happen already.
Great atmosphere and eeriness, as you would expect from a period horror film, espeically a werewolf flick. So-so acting for the most part IMO, and very serious. The werewolf looked very cool, although there are times when I wish Hollywood would just do away with the use of CGI, because they never can make the animations look real, like when the werewolf is jumping around from building to building.
It just looks fake. Not a spectacular film by any stretch, but certainly watchable and I will probably buy it when it comes out on DVD/BluRay. If cheesy, campy humor splattered with lots of gratuitous gore is what you want in a horror movie, you will be disappointed.
But if you want atmosphere, darkness, and still some gore, I think you will find that the Wolfman delivers.
