Well, yes, but not for me. I guess it all boils down to this being more of a slave rebellion film than a werewolf movie. You see, the Lycans, who were always looked down upon by vampires, were especially looked down upon because they were once slaves, and this movie tells the story of a werewolf named Lucien (Michael Sheen) and his love for the head vampire’s daughter, Sonja (Rhona Mitra). So, I guess my dislike for this movie is likely more my fault than the film’s. The plot is right there in the title, so you get what you pay for. But I was really hoping for a badass werewolf movie, and this film is not that. Plus, it’s SO dark that it’s hard to see some of the action. Overall, I do get the love for this prequel. It’s just not for me.
