i have mix emotion about this film and especially a it compare to it forerunner and an american werewolf in london . that film have it funny moment and it be still more of horror tale than anything else . this updated version and now set in paris and do not have that edge at all and simply isn not in the same class . but it do have some good thing go for it that the first film do not have and overall it still fun to watch . so and werewolf purist aside and most of whom think this film be pure garbage compare to the london version and i will still give it decent mark since i do not care what others think . i like it even though i agree london be well and i prefer that version and too . the first 30 40 minute of this movie be strictly play for laugh include a hysterical scene with a balloon in a restaurant . it also introduce the lead female character and play by julie delpy . i do not see enough of this actress . she doesn not seem to make that many film and or least one i hear about over here in america . this french actress have a face that be classic beauty and so the film get point for have her in it and and she look great . when the horror start and it can get scary and the special effect be good . i also like the lack of profanity in this film and unlike the first one represent no f word and no lord name in vain amazing . however and there be plenty of sexual remark and there be one scene with a guy run out of bar tie to a cross which be blasphemous to me . the soundtrack be heavy metal which isn not appeal to a middle aged guy like me and either . this film be gear a lot more toward 20 somethings and if that help anyone . it entertain . just do not expect it to live up to the first film .
