Brotherhood of the Wolf

2024: this movie does not age well at all

Massively underrated at the time, this French historic/fantasy genre movie stands out above the rest. Even the dubbing in the English version is done well!

Based on a famous French legend, BROTHERHOOD OF THE WOLF is an early example of now-common genre mashup, effectively blending historical drama, gothic horror, martial arts action and more. Two aspects haven't aged well: an Asian "Native American" character, and some crucial special effects. That said, the film remains richly atmospheric and often entertaining, even if the plot and pacing don't always cohere. [Reviewing the 2.5 hour Director's Cut]

A gloriously pulpy mashup of genres with Gans making a compelling case for style being substance.

This was a great movie at the time. Fun style and interesting story. It was also a good movie to show to a cute French international student ;)

I gave it 4 stars because I don't like subtitles

Classic action/horror movie. Interesting story, great cast, beautiful music. Mark Dacascos is amazing.

Fantastic foreign language film great story and action that is still fresh in my mind years after watching it years ago, I must watch it again.
