About the blog:

Well, hello! Thanks for stopping by to read my opinions about movies that I see. Some are older and most are new. Some I go to see in the theaters (both live performances and movies) and some I watch from the comfort of my own couch and even more, I will watch from the amazing Netflix app. Of course, these will be my personal thoughts about the targeted item, however, it will give you an idea of whether it's a colossal waste of time or worth a shot!

MY REVIEW:
I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. I didn't expect to like it and what do you know, I actually did!

I liked the twists that this movie took from the original story. Werewolf instead of an actual wolf. Very clever!

Sets, camera work, costuming, music.. all of it worked in a way that could have brought the whole things crumbling down. I actually got lost in the story, it actually drew me in.

The only costuming issue that I had with this movie was the length of the Red Riding Hood that seemed to change from long to short, to medium and back to long again. Not a smart move.

Well worth checking out this movie!
