An American Werewolf in Paris by Anthony Waller

Category: English

Didn't get to complete this last night as the second disk gave me some problems. Anyway, kinda dated film the movie is funny in parts and is about 3 American youngsters partying it up and trying to live the crazy life in Paris until they come across a hidden sect of Lycans and the heart eating ceremonies they indulge in in make shift night clubs.

The film parodies several notions of the typical Yank in a foreign land and the ignorance they could perhaps be priding themselves on!

The actors are pretty good, Julie Delpy of From Sunrise & From Sunset fame is present here and does a decent job of holding the French accent. Thomas Everett Scott is believable as the tourist whos life has gone haywire thanks to Delpy's character.

There's tons of funny jokes and the occasional scare as well, the only problem is the CGI, why is it a problem? Because this is 1997 CGI we're talking about.

Recommendation level: 1.5/5 - Funny in parts but overall it's a little disappointing I must say.
