The Wolfman (狼嚎再起) is a 2010 film. The movie stars Benicio del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt, and Hugo Weaving. This movie is a re-make of the 1941 film The Wolf Man.
Benicio plays Lawrence Talbot, a world renowned Shakespearean actor in London. Lawrence's brother, Ben, has recently gone missing and Ben's fiance Gwen Conliffe has sought Lawrence out to help find Ben. Lawrence, reluctantly agrees and heads back home Blackmoor. Lawrence has not been home since his teens when he witness his mother's murder. When Lawrence makes it back, Ben's body is found and kept at a slaughterhouse. From that point on, its a chase to find out who the wolfman is.
The movie was pretty well made and told a very straight forward story. The storyline was easy to follow and actually no so boring. Benicio does a good job of being both tough, uneasy, and reluctant. Anthony Hopkins was another story, that guy was so strange throughout the movie. Emily Blunt was the lone female in a heavy male dominated cast.
An impression action thriller and well made movie.
