An American Werewolf in Paris is more of a comedy than a horror film. Even as a comedy this movie fails. And this movie fails to generate some true scares. The computer generated werewolf special effects didn't look very realistic. Animatronic werewolves would have been a lot better. The only thing that was decent in this movie was the romance between Tom Everett Scott and Julie Delpy. It certainly was better than the romances in films like Armageddon and Deep Impact. Surprisingly, American Werewolf in Paris grossed over 26 million dollars at the box office.
