I'm not sure if the world really needs another wolfman movie (I rather liked Mike Nichols's Wolf). But if we're going to get one, it might as well be a visually scrumptious period piece directed by Joe Johnston and starring Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt, and Hugo Weaving. Hugo Weaving has been off our screens for far too long, and Hopkins is always more fun when he's playing around in genre pictures (The Silence of the Lambs, Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Mask of Zorro). This won't reinvent the horror genre, but it should be a bloody good time.
