Wolfman - Febuary 2010

This exciting movie stars Benicio Del Toro as Lawrence Talbot. He is an actor whose brother has gone missing. His brother's fiance seeks him out and talks him into coming home to his estranged family to try to help find his missing brother. Balking at first he relents and shows up at the family home to learn from his father, played by Anthony Hopkins that his brothers body has been found mutilated from a werewolf attack.

While visiting gypsy caravan for information the beast attacks again and Lawrence is bitten but survives, being nursed back to help by one of the gypsy women and then by his brother's fiance, Gwen, played by Emily Blunt. of course when one is bitten by a wolf one becomes a wolf and so the story goes on with the country folk on the hunt. It had a surprise ending, one I didnt see coming. It turns out Hopskin's charactor is not the lonely old goat of a father as the movie first appears. A very good watch.
