Jman and Johnny Love Movie Review: The Wolfman

LOL, Ror, thats great stuff. The first kill scene with Anthony Hopkins' Wolfman was complete cheese. It looked like a furry dog. When I was watching it I kept telling myself imagine if the original was shot today this is what it would look like. Mushroom head is not forgettable, LOL. But the rest of The Wolfman's scenes were good ol classic horror movie moments that I liked. The love story was horrible and seemed like it should have been cut (Director's issue)

yeah maybe we will see a sequel but i cannot wait for that creature from the black lagoon remake. and as i said befor since we are on the topic of horror movies,and comics, x-4,and 5 need to be made,and a sequel to hulk,and steve altens the loch,the island of dr moreau remake,resident evil remake,underworld the begining about the corvinus family,jurrassic park 4,skull island,and bring on splice already.im glad to see that monster flicks and killer animal flick are makeing a come back. the new age of monster flicks has began.i hope they start putting some really good hooror flicks out with great story,acting,plot,and effects.good job guys.

watched it online, wasn't impressed.

I saw Wolfman last night. Enjoyed it all the way up to final death scene. I've seen better bucket kicking in Troma films!

great movie!!!

Well put MisterJoshua!

Wow. @Jacob, Nice for you to point out that you think they're stupid??..

and some people never stop being assholes.

@ superdog - bro, if you haven't seen the movie, really don't bother. It's more of a movie that'll make you mad, most likely, if you're a die-hard Universal fan. Sorry, man.

God, I can't really explain it, but while watching it, I hated how sometimes the camera would just roll. Literally, my high expectations were shot. Best thing about the movie is 'oh what's her name.'

"Spoiler" - I though they were going to use the silver tipped cane more, but hell no, they didn't.

I am glad Keven brought up the bear because I had almost for gotten about that. It looked horrible even in the dark. It was fine until it movied because you couldn't see anything but after it moved it looked like a cartoon.

I felt very surprised at Del Toro's lackluster delivery. I have never seen that out of him before. On the way home my wife said "He's a long way from Traffic"
However I noticed some fumbles from Hopkins too. There was the accent thing. Much of the time he barely had any accent at all. Then there was the scene when he's throwing the locals off his property. At that point he started trying to do this paltry attempt at sounding like somebody from Rormachine's neck of the woods. There was one particular line delivered in the movie that again was shokingly bad for Sir Hopkins

SO... what we have hear is sour notes from two extremely high quality actors in the same movie, so what that tells me is that it ain't them. It's the director.

Anyways it wasn't terrible imo. I had a good time, but I am still quite concerned that Captain America might in the wrong hands.

The Special effects where great. the Gore scenes where little bit cheesy but ok! The gothic nature of the film and the Wolfman make-up where the best part in it. I mean i loved them!:) But this dont save the whole movie because the acting and the story was very predictable and boring. I´m very disappointed because this was amazing chance to do something unforgettable and they screw it up

Keven - "the only problem with this movie was a jumbled script - I think the directing and effects saved what worked for this film."

^^^^^This.

Just playing Devil's advocate, but it seems to me that alot of people have decided that because the Wolfman isn't stellar that his version of Cap might not fare well. Don't forget, Joe Johnston had to come in behind another director on the Wolfman. Anyone who has had to pick up the slack after someone else messes up already knows the kind of atmosphere that can create. I can see the powers that be screaming "Just get it done GDI! We're outta time!". So the pressure is on, the studio probably doesn't care (because if they had, they definitely would have waited until Halloween) and they called in a no nonsense guy to wrap it up (Hence Hopkin's comment about Johnston not being a wimp, which leads me to believe that the other director was like Damien Cockburn from Tropic Thunder). To quote the great Les Grossman:" you want to know what to do if actors get all whiny on you? You pull down their pants and you SPANK THAT ASS!!!!!"

I cant wait to see Werewolf by Night in the big screen!!
With the good actors and Rick Baker´s wolfman make-up its going to be h*** of a movie!:D
