I've never seen any of the original horror franchises from Universal Studios, but I hope they are better than all the latest versions of the those classic characters.
Benicio Del Torro just limps his way through this movie. He's a good actor, but it's obviously painful that he just didn't care about this role at all. Not really scary or suspenseful. They added some gore to try and help the scare tactics that failed. A pretty slow paced movie that I just couldn't get into. You don't really care what happens to "The Wolfman". That's a big problem when your entire story falls upon the audience sympathizing for "The Wolfman".
A stage actor is sought out by his brother's fiance after he goes missing. Benecio Del Torro reluctantly agrees to go home and start the search for his brother. When his brother is found dead, then the search for the monster that killed his brother takes place. Benicio gets bit from the Wolf and then becomes "The Wolfman".
The movie could've been worse. It's still a pretty slow and a useless movie. It was barely watchable. I would say that this is a rental at best and you won't lose any sleep if you don't ever get to see this movie.
