With such a good cast and a classic story it's a can't-miss...right? No. None of the otherwise excellent actors were enjoyable, the dialogue was absurd, and the "jump in your seat" moments were laughable. The violence served no purpose to the story and the actions of the Wolfman seemed totally random and without explanation. The set looked great though...a damp, foggy 19th century England that gave me a chill just looking at it. Save your money.
