A B-trash movie starring Frank Grillo and Katrina Law, Werewolves delivers just enough entertainment to pass a lazy Sunday afternoon. The production quality is solid and the werewolves are "nice" looking. The premise is decent, though the execution wavers between mediocre and passable. Fans of gore will find even a very brief glimpses to satisfy their cravings.
That said, I have two main issues. First, the movie takes a bit too long to get the action rolling, which tested my patience. Second, the ending is really all kitsch in and I mean KITSCH.
The rest of the film is entertaining enough if you don't expect too much. Of course, there are plot holes aplenty. For instance, despite having a year to prepare, the woman at home runs out of ammo suspiciously quickly, and the house's security measures feel amateurish at best. But well, it's a trash movie, and such flaws are part of the charm - or at least easy to overlook if you're in the right mood.
Final verdict: not too bad but for sure not one of those trashy movies that by some kind of supreme magick reign supreme.

Gladiator II does not possess the production quality of the original film, nor does the cast deliver performances that come close to the acting caliber we witnessed in the first Gladiator. Overall, the movie is filled with excessive CGI and over-the-top action sequences. More, more, more the movies screams while lacking of any emotional depth Gladiator got. While I have watched Gladiator multiple times, I seriously doubt I will ever watch the sequel again. Like the remakes of Ben-Hur or Papillon, this film is another inferior attempt that fails to fill the shoes of its predecessor. It may be watchable if you're looking for mindless action and want to turn your brain off. Verdict: a decidedly inferior movie.
