Watched "The Wolfman" on PPV the other day. I loved the old Universal Wolfman movies, especially the first.

This one... (remember, my opinions only)

- wasted Anthony Hopkins

- overkilled on 'gross' (and I LOVED the 1978 version of "Dawn of the Dead" - but after awhile I was saying to myself, 'there is so much gross they are just seeing how much they can do', and it ceased to be realistic part of the movie).

- actually liked the actor who played the Wolfman (forgot the name of the actor, sadly). Spoke too much in whisper's though.

- enjoyed the scene in the London hospital where he transforms in front of everyone, and the chase scene that followed.

- having 2 wolfmen was a bit novel.

Using Leonard Maltin's stars rating, I give it **. Quite disappointing, overall.

I agree with your rating. The London chase seen was pretty good but I put the movie in my 'mmmmm, s'ok' category.
