Joe Johnston's bloody and gory Wolfman is more an action movie with average CGI than a serious horror movie. I guess there is something really wrong with it.

I think that is not a remake so bad, technically speaking, but does not seem relevant, and not arouses any tension.

If you want to watch a Wolfman movie, it's hard to see how it could be any better than this; campy, over-the-top, and a lot of fun

I really hated the werewolves. They looked like men in gorilla suits. The plot was predictably strung together, without any emotional depth to the characters other than the normal: "Oh, my mommy's dead." And "Oh, my wife's dead." I wouldn't recommend it.

By pandering to the Avatar market's debased taste and indifference to storytelling details, this technically polished, emotionally crude remake sets back the advances that once had been made in horror movies.

I came for the creature effects and the gore. On those fronts, the movie had a few good moments. The story was still extremely stupid and I was not at all surprised by what was maybe supposed to be a surprise ending. Ugh. Anthony Hopkins... I worry about you sometimes.

Tries to be the opposite of the original; fixing some of the original problems but at the same time breaking everything that made the original so great. Since very little was wrong to start with and very much was right, they broke more than they fixed. Monstrous screenplay and ghastly acting make it hard to believe this was a labor of love for any involved and instead seems more like contempt.

It's got a classic, gothic, crisp autumn atmosphere that makes it a perfect pre-Halloween flick. You just gotta be in the mood for it, if not it's pretty boring

Although it seemed like it would be a dull werewolf slasher, it was actually enjoyable. It delivers great scenes of gore and beastly terror. The CG was, however, quite cheesy.

Way too much acting talent in this movie for it to be this boring. Pacing sucks and the effects are terrible.

This seems to be getting a lot of hate, but I thought it was enjoyable (I did see the Unrated version though and I hear that one's slightly better). The script was pretty weak, giving the audience a fairly simple plot line and making the film as a whole lack any real kind of atmosphere (which they try to make up for it with copious amounts of fog). The effects were cool, and actively enjoyed wolfman going crazy on people, but it wasn't enough to keep the film from being blatantly mediocre.

really didn't get what those negative reviews were about.. classical and non-campy horror texture and great craftmanship were enough for me. (I guess I've seen a different version of though??)

Good movie but the end ruined it. Just too predictable.

Pros: great gothic atmosphere, gore, dream sequences, werewolf transformations, and Hugo Weaving. Cons: Just about everything else. Dry and overly simplistic.

The story itself was fine. But those gorilla looking werewolves does not work for me.

The only major problem is that the wolfman looks ugly, which is a really major problem since he's on screen a lot.

I literally fell asleep. I gave it a couple points because Del Toro is usually solid.

A curious thing about The Wolfman is that, no matter how much one might dislike the film, it is nothing compared to the seething hatred the actors seem to have for it. Everyone involved clearly wants to be -anywhere- but on the set of this film. Saying The Wolfman sucks is redundant. It practically admits it in every frame.

Nice sets. (Particularly liked the train compartment and Sir John's dining hall.) No thrills at all. Waste of time in general. Did not die of boredom but felt absolutely nothing.

Let me say that I expected much worse. Behind the predictable plot, the misplaced scare scenes and the strange glossy view of the Enlightment age, was an abvove average movie. Hopkins and Del Toro deliver stellar performances and play very well off each other and I marked for the sudden Von Sydow appearance (I saw the Extended Cut). However it does still suffer in the first half as it drags along, not really what the hell to do with this Werewolf character; the gypsy scene was amazingly dumb.

"Would that Joe Johnston's The Wolfman were spectacularly awful, then it would have been at least a fun time at the movies." - Ed Gonzalez

Some of the sets look really nice but aren't a big enough distraction from pretty much everything else going on in the movie. I guess some people might enjoy Anthony Hopkins chewing the scenery but I just found it another thing to roll my eyes at.

This movie had so much going for it. Tho yet another remake of an excellent original, this movie had so much Oscar stardom attracted to it , it shuda been directed by a more capable director. But then again, gonna go see cap america tonight, and it looks promising. It could be the one redeeming factor in Joe Johnston's career. But for the movie the cinematography is nice , tho obvious fake CGI. The acting, scripting, pacing is all average at best.If theres nothing else on, slap this shit onn
