Director: Dominic Sena | Stars: Nicolas Cage, Ron Perlman, Claire Foy, Stephen Campbell Moore
Votes: 98,215 | Gross: $24.83M
Watched - (Possible spoilers) - Don't really know what to think of this one. The first part of the story was interesting, but towards the end my enthusiasm faded. Through the entire film I found that both Cage and Perlman were out of place, didn't like that part of the cast as well as a few others. Claire Foy on the other hand made a great job playing the witch, and again, there were a few other good actor choices. I'm not a big fan of CG, and this movie used plenty of it. Especially the wolves were pretty...let's say over the top. I think they would've achieved a better effect with a more subtle approach. The scenery looked impressive. All in all, I see this movie somewhere between 5/10 and 6/10. It's OK, but with no rewatching value.
