Critic Reviews:
- " The movie keeps the traditional look of the Wolfman and uses a mixture of practical effects and digital wizardry. " – Kevin Carr (7M Pictures)
- " Like most of director Joe Johnston's work, solidly gets the job done as a brisk, bloody entertainment. " – Michael Dequina (TheMovieReport.com)
- " Journeyman director Joe Johnston has crafted a generally effective if inconsequential monster movie, highlighted by Rick Baker's beautifully rendered makeup effects and designs. " – John Beifuss (Commercial Appeal – Memphis, TN)
