The Wolfman (A)

 

Inspired by the classic Universal film that launched a legacy of horror, the Wolfman brings the myth of a cursed man back to its iconic origins. Oscar-winner Benicio Del Toro stars as Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father (Anthony Hopkins), Talbot sets out to find his brother...and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. Lawrence Talbot`s childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother`s fiancee Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search.

Film review: The Wolfman

By Johnson Thomas(DNA)
Actor Lawrence Talbot`s(Del Toro) childhood ended the night his mother died. Despite leaving the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor and spending decades trying to forget, he is drawn into the intrigue once again when his brother`s fiancée, Gwen Conliffe(Blunt), tracks him down to help find her missing love. Talbot returns home only to find that he has bitten-off much more than he coud ever chew!

Just howls and moans

By Tushar Joshi(MID DAY)
Hugo Weaving as the Scotland Yard detective is near-perfect. Apart from his crisp accent, he plays his part with utmost seriousness and charm. Johnston has succeeded in creating an authentic 1891, with a majestic-looking British countryside mansion with foggy floors, dead leaves sweeping through the frames, and ominously shaped trees. The setting and atmosphere definitely helps us approach the film better. The transformation scene, which is the crux of the plot, is remarkably short and only gives you fleeting shots of bones expanding through flesh and clothes ripping to accommodate the new form. Despite its short length, the image stands out. Camerawork, especially in the opening frame and the one when the beast attacks the gypsy camp, is remarkable.
