As a fan of Hammer Films and old Universal horror movies, this is everything I have ever wanted in a werewolf movie. It's grim, dark, violent, and well written!

Too bad the library system has only one copy of this dvd. It's the best produced version of this story to come to film. Both Anthony Hopkins and Benicio del Toro are terrific actors. Both are werewolves! The sets, exterior shots, makeup…

"Awoooooooooooo!"-tagline
This 2010 update of "The Wolfman" was something of a bomb, had production problems, and was poorly marketed. Yet It's actually a pretty good revision of the Universal classic. Benicio Del Toro, a big Wolfman fan,…

I have not seen the original 1941 movie, and after seeing parts of it I don't intend to, but I truly like this movie. Even though it is predictable, and the effects are a bit laughable, but for some odd reason, this is the perfect…

I enjoyed this version very much. I found it satisfying in every respect. I can only suppose that it's not being better known is due to the competition in the theaters that year including The King's Speech, Inception, Toy Story 3, True…

To his credit director Joe Johnston does try very hard to elicit the gothic chills of the 1941 classic (or all those wonderfully bad Hammer Horror spinoffs); his 19th century English moors are appropriately misty, the decaying family…

Good production values, some good acting, but the story is weak, predictable, and unrewarding.

Love Benicio Del Toro, so i knew i was going to enjoy this. Of all the monster themes, the wolfman was never my favorite but this one was wonderfully done. Acting was great and story well thought.Want a fun monster movie for the weekend?…

A waste of time and talent. The special effects and makeup were terrible, and the acting was no better. Lots of blood and gore, reminiscent of 1960's horror flicks, and just as cheesy, with flying severed limbs and blood that looked like…

Amid all the guts & gore, guess what I found most horrifying in "The Wolfman"? Benicio Del Toro's hairstyle. Liza Minnelli called & wanted her wig back. It's hiliarious how they managed to keep it recognizable even after Benicio had…

doesn't quite cut it as a superior horror film - but what film can out do another when the topic has run its course -- not an easy task to resurrect one of the great movie monsters ever - still it is entertaining i think benicio del toro…

Good - Wolfman (2010) 119 min. Ah, a film about the brute in all of us. Benecio Del Toro deadpans his portrayal of Lawrence Talbot, the ever changing wolf man. Though the film has all the special effects gadgetry of today’s cinematic…

Unfortunately, this promising, picturesque Victorian-Gothic horror film devolves into silliness towards the end. It also displays too much modern-day splatter & gore for sensitive viewers.
