Hooowwwllllll

So my evening consisted of watching a couple more episodes of Lost (season 4 I'm defeating you by tomorrow) and going to see The Wolfman with Lee.
Popcorn & fizzy (leave to go flat) drink in tow.
The trailers were pretty awful and I already had a heads-up that this was a b-movie style film.

The only two actors I knew were Anthony Hopkins Benicio Del Toro and Emily Blunt.
I don't know what that had to say about the movie intially, most mainstream actors aren't THAT brilliant.
Del Toro, probably best known for his role in Snatch, Sin City and the recent Che pt 1&2 was the main character of the film. Named the 'prodgical son' by his father he sets his sights to find the person or monster behind his brothers untimely death.
Anthony Hopkins, Silence of the Lambs, Beowulf etc is the father of the two sons whose life took a turn for the worst with the death of his wife followed some years later by the death of his 'favoured' son.
Emily Blunt, The Young Victoria, Sunshine Cleaning and The Devil wears Prada is the wife of the dead son who is wanting all of the answers. Soon to fall in love with his troubled elder brother.

The story is as predictable as any werewolf movie you've seen through the years. Really the narrative cannot alter that much. But this movie really does resemble that of a B-movie. Despite jumping at the clamorous noise, I found most of the (what I suppose were supposed to be) scary parts hilarious. There was enough there to keep me entertained, although I think this might of been the confusion regaurding how humorous I was finding the general action.
The ending scenes were especially farcical, especially when other werewolf transformed and proceeded to rip his shirt clean off in hulk esque style. Oh god.

Really, I have no idea what to make of the film. I have a sneaky suspicion that the bad CGI was intentional to follow the B-movie feel. The editing seemed pretty sound and even after checking on IMDB.com the only goof is something that only historians would discover. It's worth a watch that's for certain. But I'd definately be completely open minded before you go in. I think it leaves me with the same uncertainty that 'Drag me to Hell' created. That complete mix of conventions that we've become accustomed to. Anyway, for those who haven't seen/heard anything about it I'll leave the trailer.
