Entertainment Reviews:
...WOLF is a cross-cultural hoot...
Los Angeles Times
Fun movie, animatronic beast and all.

Observer
...Stylishly shot and edited, awash in fast-paced jump cuts and whooshing, MATRIX-style sound effects, the eerie story and special effects get pulses racing...
USA Today
An extraordinary film, although not necessarily a good one.
Salon.com
...Just about as good as action movies get....[A] film that's exciting, smart, sexy and scary...
Box Office
Rating: 3/4 --
This delirious experience covers most bases and makes at least a cursory stab at the few it misses.

Rating: C --
The hero feels free to sleep with any prostitute, even as he's wooing the one he calls his 'true love.' Isn't there a conflict of interest there?
Looking Closer
Product Description:
BROTHERHOOD OF THE WOLF is a wild mix of martial arts, horror, and French period drama. Grégoire de Fronsac (Samuel Le Bihan), a charming naturalist and libertine, arrives in Gevaudan with his companion, Mani (Mark Dacascos), a taciturn Mohawk Iroquois Indian with amazing fighting skills. Fronsac has been sent by the king to investigate a mysterious beast that is slaughtering women and children across the countryside. The local gentry include the friendly Marquis Thomas D'Apcher (Jérémie Rénier), Jean-François de Morangias (Vincent Cassel), a one-armed adventurer with a suspicious nature, and his beautiful sister, Marianne (Emilie Dequenne of ROSETTA). Though Fronsac is immediately attracted to Marianne, he still finds time to visit Sylvia (Monica Bellucci), a mysterious prostitute with a penchant for sharp objects. Fronsac and Mani quickly realize that the killer is not a wolf, but something bigger and far more deadly. As they attempt to track the beast, they encounter unexpected resistance from the locals, and find themselves in grave danger. BROTHERHOOD, a huge hit in France, is a uniquely entertaining film, featuring stunning fight scenes, suspense, and campy high drama. Director Christophe Gans captures it all with a visual panache few Hollywood directors can match.
