Jack Nicholson becomes a werewolf in this bizarre comedy-horror film directed by Mike Nichols. Nicholson plays Will Randall, a book editor with a testosterone deficit who has just been sacked at his publishing firm by a new boss, Raymond Alden (Christopher Plummer). A colleague, Stewart Swinton (James Spader), whom Randall thought was his friend, betrays him. Randall's personality changes after he hits a wolf with his car and gets bitten by the creature. He immediately feels more powerful, has heightened hearing and vision, and sets about to right the wrongs in his life. He visits Alden at the publisher's mansion to protest his dismissal, and he is asked to leave -- but Alden's daughter Laura (Michelle Pfeiffer) asks him to stay for lunch. Laura loves to defy her father. Will tells her about the wolf bite, and she becomes attracted to him. But because werewolves usually kill the ones they love, Laura is in danger. Will reasserts his place in the publishing world, supported by his loyal secretary Mary (Eileen Atkins), and his relationship with Laura deepens. ~ Michael Betzold, Rovi

Dashland B.

A brilliantly done movie. Michelle and Jack are great match together in this film. My only regret is that WOLF II was not made.

Very good movie, has it all...love, danger, suspense, violence, comedy. One flaw, I was very disapointed with the quality of the blu-ray transfer.

I was rather impressed with this 'werewolf' version. Of course, Nicholson never fails to impress, period. The special effects (wolf transformations) are outstanding, the lesser action scenes; well executed. Spader and Pfeiffer naturally portray their roles to perfection; especially the climactic (spoiler!) And no irony, Nicholson and Pfeiffer costarred in Witches (eastwick) they work so well together. Would I buy a copy for my video collection: YES

Great movie--One more dynamite performance by Jack Nicholson. Michelle Pfeiffer and James Spader also do very nice roles. An entertaining werewolf movie well worth watching.

I was only attracted to this movie because Jack Nicholson was in it. I would not have watched this otherwise. Story, plot, etc. was very predictable and everyone pretty much figured out the ending about mid way through. Jack Nicholson makes the worst movie bearable!

Jack Nicholson is the best actor ever. He made a very weak character and story line bearable.

Yes   |   No

Two different movies in one. First half is good, second half is weak, especially the transformation and and stunt choreography.

Yes   |   No


Kaelynne A.

Spader and Nicholson, weird and weirder meet in swanky estate, become wolves that fight it out in the end with Ninja like moves. They should have thrown this in the dog pile.
