Cost $150 million and it's only made $50 mill. It opened dropped to #5 this weekend. Looks like word of mouth got around to how bad it was.

I think the movie was delayed for a long time before they released it. That ain't a good sign. It means it rated poor with test audiences and they kept trying to change things around in order to make it better.

I think it's just that the Wolfman thing is super lame.

I always thought the Wolfman was the weakest of the monster movies from the 30's & 40's like Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy etc. This one didn't look like it has much appeal either.

I would agree. The best wolfman movie has to be "An American Wolfman in London".

When a movie like this takes itself too seriously, it better be pretty solid.

Yea this is what I was thinking as well. Also, it doesn't help when both Hopkins and Benicio (to a lesser extent) have proven they don't mind phoning it in from time to time - it makes it harder to shell out $10-$16 to see them if you're unsure of what you'll get.

My wife drug me to it, it was horrible. Too much down time between the action scenes. She liked it, but 1 out of 5 for me
