I don't care who it's from. It's directed by the woman who made the first Twilight only, and Lords of Dogtown(this was rather good). And one of the producers is Guillermo Del Toro(going by one crew list), a rather decent cast and written by the guy who did the script for the horror film Orphan.

All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I **** like you wanna ****, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.
Thanks for merging Impediment. I did type in the search thread, Before I made that thread but it didn't show up that a thread had been made previously.
But anyway yea it's a quite a dark version of the fairytale. Not sure of the rating yet, But it will for sure be either PG-13 or R.
Ten bucks says Amanda Seyfried ends up being the werewolf and the movie is a thinly veiled allegory for the menstrual cycle.
Could be a decent movie. The trailers remind me more of Sleepy Hollow and The Brother's Grimm than the Twilight movies, and I enjoyed both of those moves.

Thats what I was thinking when I read the book and then other times I thought no. But Noone knows who the wolf is because the last chapter of the book is missing. Purposely, so not to ruin it for the fans when they go to see the movie or anyone to spoil it for them.
The last chapter will be made available online to read when the movie is released.
What I do know is that the wolf has a male and a female voice when it speaks to Valerie (Red) sort of intertwined and has close link with her, So it someone who she knows very well.
The wolf asks that she surrenders herself to he/she or everyone she loves will die.
Then there is not much to go on from there just speculation as to who the wolf is.
Oldman is easily in my top-five favorite actors, likely top-three and I'd like to stick it to Amanda Seyfried in her crapper, but this looks like it's going to be shit.
Saw the film tonight. I will say this for it,I felt it was better than most the reviews gave it credit for. The film keeps you guessing and alot of drama unfolds during the movie which all ends up fitting together in a suprising way,though it all comes out just a little too rushed.A lot of drama in little time. it certainly tries to appeal to the twilight crowd and at this I think it will fail,though it's not without a little charm.
The acting was hit and miss. Some parts work well others are walking a thin line on being completely horrendous.
I felt Gary Oldmans part was underwhelming. Dissapointed with him,though their's not much else in this film that comes across as better.
I thought the grandmother was possibly the best character in the film,followed by Red Riding hood (vallery)
The visuals are good,though the wolf is painfully cgi. At this point they don't even try to make the creatures look real anymore.. The acting is hit and miss. But the bottom line for me is the film does a comendable job of keeping you guessing and adding in a lot of twist. I had my suspecions about every character and me and my girlfriend had fun of accusing 3 different characters throughout the whole film.
Out of a 10 i'm going with a 5.8 out of 10. Their was parts I liked and the visual landscape was gorgeous. Don't take it too serious and you might have a fun time.
