Trivia:
There are three separate scenes where a werewolf falls off something and into a body of water, making a small but noticeable splash. This is an in-joke on Wile E. Coyote. moreGoofs:

Excellent adventure story based on the vampire killer created by Bram Stoker. Forget any Edward Van Sloane dottery old professors here. This guy is all action swashbuckling kill with his bare hands if there isn't a weapon handy.
Hugh Jackman is great in the part and is building an impressive action CV. The nods to the Universal movies of the 30s and 40s are well appreciated and one good point is that Frankensteins Monster who isn't intrinsically evil is allowed to survive at the end. He and the other monsters are presented in a new modern original way while at the same time having features that been part of them since they were first committed to celluloid.
If you want an action filled exciting couple of hours you could do a hell of a lot worse than watch Van Helsing.
