      pietro s 2024: this movie does not age well at all Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/24 Full Review Kevin P Massively underrated at the time, this French historic/fantasy genre movie stands out above the rest. Even the dubbing in the English version is done well! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/29/23 Full Review Torin F Based on a famous French legend, BROTHERHOOD OF THE WOLF is an early example of now-common genre mashup, effectively blending historical drama, gothic horror, martial arts action and more. Two aspects haven't aged well: an Asian "Native American" character, and some crucial special effects. That said, the film remains richly atmospheric and often entertaining, even if the plot and pacing don't always cohere. [Reviewing the 2.5 hour Director's Cut] Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/16/23 Full Review AB L A gloriously pulpy mashup of genres with Gans making a compelling case for style being substance. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/31/23 Full Review Jamie L This was a great movie at the time. Fun style and interesting story. It was also a good movie to show to a cute French international student ;) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/09/23 Full Review Daniel C I gave it 4 stars because I don't like subtitles Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Anton Bitel Little White Lies soon Gans will be deftly intertwining the tropes of Hammer horror, court intrigue, romantic melodrama, murder mystery, creature feature, action extravaganza and revenger’s tragedy to put his own imprint in this by-road of French history. May 15, 2023 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) [A] nutty Gallic genre mash-up... Rated: 4/5 May 11, 2023 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Werewolf thriller set during French revolution. Rated: 4/5 Dec 22, 2010 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Manages to surprise audiences with the ways in which it reinvents the expected lore, while still managing to deliver plenty of genre elements for the more bloodthirsty audiences. Rated: 4/5 Sep 24, 2023 Full Review Emilie Black JoBlo's Movie Network ...the film has a little of everything and, to many people watching it, it tends to lose its focus. To this viewer, this ADHD person, this is heaven! Rated: 10/10 Sep 21, 2023 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film It bites off far more than it can chew, but the result is still interesting and, in places, gripping viewing.
