Die Abenteuer von Wolfsblut

Actually I give a 7.5, is a very good movie, I love the animation, that style oil painting was very good, very good story, the first hour of the movie I found it very entertaining and peaceful, the only problem I have with this film are the last 30 minutes you start finding problems in the script and the story is no longer completely entertaining, still I am satisfied with the movie and is one of the best animations of the 2018 so far.

I wanted to like this film more than I did, as the general story, theme and atmosphere were quite nice, but there were some flaws that I can't get away from and have to take into account for my rating.

I'd say the biggest one for me was the animation. Quite a bit of it felt quite jerky and unnatural, and the emotions in the human faces were lacking. A lot of the time it felt like I was watching video game cutscenes rather than a film. The words even seemed to be quite out of sync a lot of the time. Fortunately there was quite a bit more emotion coming from White Fang.

The other main criticism I have is that some things just didn't make much sense. The only example I'll mention is when Maggie is suddenly anxious when she apparently forgets that she left White Fang with the chickens, only a couple of minutes after she was talking about it with her husband. It may seem minor but it can still affect the viewing experience.

Overall I'd say it was a nice Friday evening watch but I'll probably not watch it again.

I love this movie. And the animation was brilliant and so unique that my dog was totally engaged...and barking at the screen.

I hate to be so brutal as to only give this movie 5 stars as it was a good film for the most part, but I cannot abide the rewriting of an American Classic such as this. While I understand the choice to mitigate the violence expressed in the book for young viewers, I do believe the screenwriters did a disservice to Jack London's writing by changing characters, their motives, and even the ending. Netflix's White Fang is a solid children's movie, but a poor depiction of Jack London's classic.

This simple and compelling narrative makes this an enjoyable movie to watch with or without children. It's subtle, believable and captures the beauty of nature wonderfully (which is refreshing since there is no lack of over-the-top movies out there). This one is a winner. Well done!
