Is the wolfman any good?

It was a homage to the original Wolfman make up.

Benicio Del Toro was even made up to look like Lon Chaney Jnr which was a nice touch.
 
They captured a dark, Gothic feel in the film but I didn't think Lawrence (Benicio) was a sympathetic enough character, so you couldn't really feel anything when he's struck by 'the curse'.

Apart from some scattered limbs and entrails, the film could've been a Saturday morning kiRAB movie.

6/10 for style and faithful reproduction of the classic Hollywood monster film.
 
I haven't seen the film but I've got to say that Benicio Del Toro was perfect casting.
He just has such a similar look to Lon Chaney Jr as Larry Talbot.
I think it's the sad droopy eyes.
