It's true that there isn't much new beyond the hatred between the Vamps and Lycans. That being said, it is still a good time if you enjoy action and adventure. I thought the 'Rise of the Lycans' was entertaining because of the fact that it was taking place in the dark ages and all of the candles and torches gave it an eerie and surreal feeling. I did find the effects where hundreds of werewolves were running through the forest rather amateurish. On the flip side, the man to wolf transformation was professionally done. Thanks for your review and insights. I enjoyed this prequel as much as the first two offerings. It’s true that there isn’t much new beyond the hatred between the Vamps and Lycans.

Bizzare..... As for your review of the 2nd film...truely brillant!! Don't remember that 1st time, but hunt the camel toe should be a pass time for every movie!!?? Everything else was spot on, including the superb acting by Rhona Mitra...she should have got her kit off, that would have improved her on screen presence no end!! One positive thing though, was the fact the Michael Sheen (He of Frost/Nixon) is actually a very good acting & can play different style roles pretty damn well!!
