"
Blood & Chocolate
is a werewolf movie for teen girls to giggle at when they aren't contemplating their own quest for sensual and societal freedom."

"The film's awkward connections among nationality, gender, and race ("human" and "canine") never quite cohere, but Vivian's ability to embrace her dual nature marks her difference from her narrowly focused masculine associates."
PopMatters

2/4
"...the film's positives are ultimately outweighed by its negatives."

"All things considered, a more appropriate title would have been
Oil and Water

"A bland, forgettable, and sub-par teen marketed horror cash-in that bored me to tears..."

"For a werewolf movie, this is an awfully toothless, turgid effort."

"
Blood and Chocolate
is an unmitigated triumph: it's successfully carved out a cozy niche in the hallowed halls of ineptitude."

"
Blood and Chocolate
has no audience. Horror fans will be disgusted by the lack of gore. Romance fans will be disgusted by the presence of gore."

"The only creature this heavily accented leader of the pack [Olivier Martinez] resembles is Pepé Le Pew."

2/4
"A far cry from such sneakily subversive werewolf-sex tales as
The Company of Wolves
or
Ginger Snaps
, this pallid little picture is all
Lost Boys
posturing by way of the sublimely ridiculous
Covenant
."

1/4
"For a movie so humorless, it's amazing how much humor can be found while watching
Blood and Chocolate
."

"
Blood and Chocolate
raises questions about the individual versus the group and tradition versus progress but...is more interested in flaunting the film's lame special effects than mining its thematic potential."

"The derivative and dim-witted
Blood and Chocolate
at least provides a practical metaphor for its own detrimental impact on cinema culture."

"
Sangue & Chocolate
talvez devesse se chamar
Câmera & Lenta
, já que sua diretora utiliza este recurso à exaustão ao longo da projeção."

6/10
"A pack of attractive Romanians do it werewolf style in a mixed bag of teenage romance and watered down scariness. Unfortunately, neither romance or horror enough for enthusiasts of either persuasion."
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
1.5/5
"A junior version of
Underworld
, minus the vampires, the action scenes, the cool FX, and the half-a-brain."

Scott Weinberg
"I found
Blood and Chocolate
to be a lovely surprise, an imaginative and visually lush picture firmly rooted in the tradition of gothic romance and elegiac horror films about misunderstood monsters."
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
1.5/4
"You could almost overlook the chemistry vacuum between Bruckner and Dancy, but the shots of actors leaping and morphing into wolves are so cheesy that they make the bargain-basement special effects in
Teen Wolf
look Oscar worthy in comparison."
