Reviews for The Wolf Man
A film of sometimes uncertain greatness that is nonetheless the most entertaining and effective Universal monster movie since Bride of Frankenstein.

No review available.
07/29/02
A classic creature feature.
05/24/03
A stodgy Universal thriller from 1941, redeemed by a name-heavy cast and by Lon Chaney Jr.'s lumbering, affable performance in the title role.

Top CriticApesar de ter se transformado em um personagem trágico e fascinante nos filmes posteriores da série (com seu constante desejo de morrer), Larry Talbot é apenas um monstro convencional e nada interessante neste primeiro capítulo.

It's a good, solid film, held together by Chaney's appealing performance and great supporting players like Lugosi as Bela the gypsy who turns into a wolf.
08/14/06
Charming & fun 40's monster schlock.

A classic despite its flaws.
09/16/08
In spite of its age, the emotional impact, and sheer terror hasn't lost its punch with great performances, and a tragic ending.
07/16/07
The key to getting some good, fun chills out of a silly old movie like The Wolf Man is atmosphere: Watch after midnight. Turn off the lights. Light a few candles. Don't let your feet dangle off the edge of the couch or bed.
01/07/04
It's not as boring as Dracula, but not nearly as inventive as, say, Bride of Frankenstein.
04/15/05
A wonderfully campy horror film that made a star of Lon Chaney Jr. Despite its hokiness, it stills holds up.
