Romance In the Land of the Werewolves
16 July 2007
In Bucharest, Romania, the orphan Vivian (Agnes Bruckner) was raised by her aunt after losing her parents ten years ago in the Rocky Mountains, Colorado. His family belongs to a bloodline of werewolves and Vivian is promised to the leader of the pack, Gabriel (Oliver Martinez). When the American cartoonist Aiden (Hugh Dancy), who is researching werewolves for his publisher for the next edition of his magazine, meets Vivian, they immediately fall in love for each other. However, the evil son of Gabriel and Vivian's cousin Rafe (Bryan Dick) poisons Gabriel about the love of Vivian, forcing her to choose between her bounds with her family and her passion for Aiden.

"Blood and Chocolate" is an entertaining romantic adventure, with an attractive story, good performances and great special effects. The gorgeous Agnes Bruckner and the great actor Hugh Dancy show an excellent chemistry in the lead roles, and Bryan Dick and Oliver Martinez are great villains. The wonderful locations in Bucharest are highlighted with the angles and movements of the camera, in a magnificent cinematography. I enjoyed this underrated movie a lot, and my vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Sangue e Chocolate" ("Blood and Chocolate")
