the wolfman

I have just seen “the wollfman” featuring Anthony Hopkins and Benicio Del Toro. It’s plot being a horrifying beast is killing the town folk and Lawrence played by Del Toro tries to hunt it down for revenge for killing his brother. However, he gets bitten and becomes the wolfman. I will not say how it ends because I do not want to ruin it for anyone but I thought it was a “cute” movie. First of all any movie with Anthony Hopkins is going to be a mind teasing thriller. He was great in it as the twisted father that betrayed his family. Then again from the start, anyone could tell he was going to be the one of the main and twisted characters. Del Toro was equally good too and I was a bit surprised that he did this role in this movie. However, it worked out and he played the character well. The movie is bloody and grotesque and I loved every minute of it. The surprising action of the wolf killings and the bloody body parts being thrown right to left will have anyone’s interest and I would recommend this movie to anyone. However, it is rated R so do not show the kids. Even though you can tell its mostly animated and my little brother thought it was awesome, I don’t advise it to some children. And I hope you enjoy it.

  1. I saw this movie when it first came out, and I do not feel the same way about it that you do. There were only a couple good points, and the rest was your normal werewolf drama. There was a lot of gore and pointless actions that lead to the not so surprising ending that the girl who he loved had to kill him in order to save herself. Needless to say my boyfriend fell asleep in the movie theatre. However, I do like both of the actors in the movie and I think that they did a good job with their roles. Nevertheless, I felt that the roles were mundane and something that I have seen many times before.
