Editorial Review: Description: Brotherhood of the Wolf leaps into a new realm of suspense with this thrilling 2-disc Director's Cut of the international film sensation! When a mysterious beast ravages the countryside, two unlikely heroes are called in to fight the evil. And now, their battle against dark, unspeakable terror is even more gripping with a daring extended version of the film that showcases more of the breathtaking martial arts action and over four hours of in-depth bonus features. The incredible hit that took audiences and critics alike on “a wild ride” (Premiere) is back with more chilling adventure that’s sure to have pulses racing all over again. Amazon.com: If you crave an over-the-top historical kung fu-fantasy epic with a good dose of voluptuous nudity, bravura machismo, and passions so intense they verge on ridiculous, then Brotherhood of the Wolf is your movie. Based (loosely) on an 18th-century legend, this French film follows a hunky scientist (Samuel Le Bihan, who's sort of a second-string Christopher Lambert) and his Iroquois sidekick/spiritual partner (Mark Dacascos) as they pursue a monstrous wolf ravaging the French countryside. Along the way Le Bihan gets entwined with a beautiful noblewoman (Émilie Dequenne) and a gorgeous prostitute (Monica Belluci) with secrets. The plot grows more and more incomprehensible, but the mix of torrid emotions, outrageous action sequences, and lurid titillation is really what the movie is about. Ignore the highbrow philosophizing and confused political intrigue; just enjoy the sensual images. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I JUST REALIZED FRENCH MOVIES ARE GETTING TO BE GREAT!This fine, elegant film surprised me; but it shouldn't have. After seeing three other such recent films from France lately - CRIMSON RIVERS 1 and 2, EMPIRE OF THE WOLVES - I'm becoming a real fan of their sophisticated, many-layered, extraordinary graphics and production quality and acting, writing and direction. For a film with such complexities and rich character development, it was exciting, engrossing and accessible (well-dubbed in english and spanish), BOTW kept me excited and guessing. ...

Rating: - Great film-Directors cut went on a little longthats assuming this is the same Directors cut from 2003... Interesting that in my EU edition of the film, they refer to the beast as a "she" I beleive it was genderless in the US release Rating: - Excellent monster movie!This is more of a monster movie than a horror film. Set in France a few centuries back, it tells the story of a werewolf-like creature that stalks the countryside. Based on a true story, it is a European-made movie and as a result features actors unknown to an American audience. They all turn in a good performance. The settings, costumes and evenly-balanced story all help to make this one of the better monster movies you will see. The special effects are cool and the atmosphere and cinematography are excellent. ... Read More Rating: - Brotherhood of the WolfThis was a great buy. I would highly recommend it.
