Ehhhhh... This wasn't nearly as good as it could and SHOULD have been. It wasn't terrible but it was pretty boring in parts, and the ending was lame. I really thought this was going to be a majorly awesome blockbuster and the start of a new franchise, but now, there's no way that's gonna happen.
With Scorsese's "Shutter Island" opening this weekend and the awesome-looking remake of George Romero's "The Crazies" coming out next Friday, it looks like Zombies will beat Werewolves this go-around (Because, you know... "The Crazies" has people acting like zombies, and "Shutter Island" has Leonardo DiCaprio. Who just SEEMS like a zombie. 😛 )

Well, if you REALLY want to get technical... Technically, the baddies in "The Crazies" aren't zombies - they're just infected humans. And going by movie-feats, humans pretty much always beat werewolves, soooooo...
See? "The Crazies" will beat "The Wolfman" at the box office! It's logic. 😂
Watched the film. It was "meh". I give it a 5 out of 10. Probably better than anything else playing except Shutter Island. There were some good parts, but it seemed to lack, hugely, on developing the lore and the characters. Some of the lines were horrible: "It takes a monster to kill a monster." I literally faceplamed, it was so cheesy. There were probably 5 other lines, just like that. Oh, and when the werewolf jumped over the Scotland yard folks, Agent Smith said, "Dear God, help us all." I groaned and sighed and facepalmed through the back of my head. del Torro sucked horribly as the lead actor and almost ruined the film. However, that's more a problem with the director, imo. Surely the directly could have altered some of his retarded lines, just slightly, to NOT be so retarded. Surely he could have reshot a scene where del Torro does his line like an idiot from a very low-budget B film.
Hopkins was good, as well as Emily Blunt.
The film had several shots/scenes that were remarkably close to the original one "The Wolf Man. (1941)" it was nice and violent at some parts, as it should have been.
About Emily Blunt: She was very attractive in this film. She seemed delicate yet strong. Hard to describe, but her character was very well done. I thought her outfits, except for the gray one she wore in the last scene, were VERY nice. They were dark/gothic, yet elegant. Sounds gay, I know, but say what you want: what a woman wears can change how attractive or not she is. I liked the time setting for this film, as well. I think I'm falling in love with this era of humanity. I also like steam-punk. I may have to pen a script in this era.
Bonus: The douche sitting next to me jumped at every single cheesy scare moment. it actually got annoying, after a while. When the dog jumps out of the dark, he almost jumped straight up into a standing position: stupid douche a**hole...get a grip and stop being sucy a pansy idiot. /rant

Movie was really crap. Cool gore. Just about worthless in every other aspect.
Damn it, I was hoping for a decent werewolf film after the shit Hollywood as dished out these last couple of years, Underworld and Twilight.
(unless of course I'm forgetting some good werewolf film?)
