What to Know

Critics Consensus

Markedly inferior to its cult classic predecessor in every way, An American Werewolf in Paris is felled by the silver bullets of clumsy storytelling and chintzy special effects.

Emmanuel C A guilty pleasure of mine, this movie has some good humour, scary scenes, kind of corny at times, but overall worth a watch. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review alan g A very pale imitation of its predecessor drained of all life. Not worth watching. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/13/25 Full Review Shawn G One of the worst movies ever made. Painfully 90’s in all the wrong ways. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/06/25 Full Review Rosana B Sequencia do “Um Lobisomem Americano em Londres”, mas sem nenhum a correlação entre eles, uma pena, pois o primeiro entrega um deixa maravilhosa quando o lobisomem morde várias pessoas no final do filme, o que poderia gerar um surto de grandes proporções, mas preferiram criar uma história fraquinha, com efeitos apenas razoáveis, mas nada comparado ao primeiro, pouco cativante ou divertido... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Jeepers C The story wasn't that bad, but the cgi really ruined kept the movie from being better. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Anton H Dumb plot holes, laughable CGI, cheap laughs… and hey, it’s fun. It’s also bad… REALLY bad… but it’s *enjoyably* bad, and at the very least, for a “basement party movie”, this one’s worth a lot of laughs.
