    It wasn't bad. The acting was decent, and the story was nothing unusual, but it was entertaining enough.

    An average chick flick drama which is interesting enough but lacks real punch. Anyone expecting horror will be disappointed. It is more of a love story with some drama thrown in for extra measure. The acting works for the film though it is nothing to write home about. The fil...( read more)m is beautifully shot and only the CGI falls a bit short of the mark. It probably could have been developed more and it might have played better.

    Thought there was more to it...
    Admittedly I never did see the trailer, but I was attracted to the plot and to the leading actors...can't really stand Olivier Martinez...
    But unfortunately the overall outlook was weak...the character creatures had no real "feel" to them...the a...( read more)cting was truly hollow, with the small exception once again of the leading 'lord & lady' if you will...

    Better than I tought it would be...I bet the book is better thou. There is some low-grade acting in it, so beware. Cool plot though.

    If you haven't seen this movie...dont!

    I wanted to see werewolves, not plain, ordinary wolves. Particularly with all the stupid love story attached.
  • November 12, 2009
    One of the best werewolf movies ever made. Anyone who likes the "Moolight" series will really enjoy this movie.

Kyle Smith, New York Post

This is the kind of werewolf flick that seems to have used up its entire special-effects budget on canine contact lenses. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

A slapdash supernatural adventure-romance. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

I found Blood and Chocolate to be a lovely surprise, an imaginative and visually lush picture firmly rooted in the tradition of gothic romance and elegiac horror films about misunderstood monsters. full review

January 26, 2007
Nick Schager, Slant Magazine

The derivative and dim-witted Blood and Chocolate at least provides a practical metaphor for its own detrimental impact on cinema culture. full review

January 26, 2007
Pete Hammond, Maxim

A movie itself caught between two worlds, a sweet and sour concoction that all adds up to a lot of nonsensical scenes in search of an idea. full review

January 26, 2007
Kurt Loder, MTV

All of these defects, which aren't unusual in movies of modest budget, could be forgiven if Blood and Chocolate were actually scary. But it isn't; not even a little bit. Werewolf devotees, however, ma... full review

    This movie is so cool! It's a bit scary as well, but I really like the story. It's a unique movie. Agnes Brucker did good work, as well as Hugh Dancy and Olivier Martinez.
    Hugh is sooo cute in it!
    A recommend for fantasy fans!

    This is the WORST movie ever, it was nothing like the book. The director or whoever was in charge of it turned it into crap, ugh i can't belive they made vivan stay with that loser Aiden she was meant for Gabe, and that's another thing that pisses me off, they turned Gabriel into the bad guy and Aiden into this hero. He's not a hero he's a wuss. Anyone who thought this piece of crap is a really great movie should check out the book first, then they will realize this was a stupid movie and should be burned, not to mention the person who was resposible for it.

    horror? What The fuck?! My good this was more of a comedy then anything! if i don't base this movie on the book, it sucks, the plot was terrible and messy and the dialogue was crap and unoriginal. Basing it On the book. It still sucks. it was so far off i think i asked my self if the writers even READ THE GODDAMN BOOK! the ruined a classic and i hate them for it. And hey was the dude from the covenant in it or am i just crazy? doesn't Matter. This is just what my basis was, and all in all, it was crap, the animation and affects were crap and stupid. I was totally disappointed.

    One of the worst movies I've seen in a while. A warewolf movie which wasn't scary or thrilling? WTF??? A waste of 2 hours of my life. Sorry if you liked this movie, but give me American Warewolf in London anytime!
