I loved this film and thought it was even better than the original. Lucian is an excellent character and is portrayed brilliantly by Michael Sheen.

of course without this there would have been no 1 and Evolution. It was too short. My case says 92 min but it was actually 80 min. It was good but Rhona Mitra is no Kate Beckinsale.The best part of the movie was the effects. Especially at the beginning when sonya is being chased by William's hoards through the forest then to the castle when Lycan Luscian grabs the crossbow and takes out two werewolves with one shot. Another thing i liked was the fact that they distinguished the difference between Lycans and William's werewolves. I just thought the first was amazing and the second was good but this was slightly not as good as 2.
