Shadow Wolves

Technically and tactically lame! Storyline doesn't match up to practical current events. They leave weapons behind, just drops them and ever picks them up. List goes on. Google Play should reimburse me. The team is like ROTC at a online university! GI Jokes!

I would prefer to write a positive review because the storyline for "Shadow Wolves" (2019) has great potential: coyotes crossing the U. S.-Mexico border illegally bringing God only knows what - including detonators or other potentially devastating devices, including dirty bombs - to annihilate a city, a suburb, an urban center for business or industry. Given our open border here in 2024, this prescient script might have provided a glimpse into a terrifying possibility.

But this is an amateurish film with a low-budget "made for TV" feel, poor quality in terms of camera work, editing, and soundtrack. It's nothing to miss this one, but if you do watch it, at least appreciate the idea of a Native American effort to protect our citizenry and principles of freedom and diversity a la "e pluribus unum."

B-movie type film marked by stilted dialogue and cliched plot elements.

A terrorist leader, dying of a terminal illness, seeks revenge against a group of Native American trackers. During one of the Gulf Wars, the trackers had led the U.S. military to the home of the terrorist and subsequently a drone strike wiped out his family.

The trackers are now patrolling the U.S./Mexican border to try and stop the passage of drugs, human trafficking, and possible terrorist weapons. They are secretly being funded by a former fellow soldier who is now a Colonel with the NSA.

Overall, can't recommend this one.

The actors have the worst monotone, scripted, unemotional delivery of their lines, like a bunch of stars trying to break into "real movies". It doesn't qualify as even a B movie, that would insult every B movie ever made.

This garbage of a film was directed and acted by simple ametuers and 7 producers whose past investment efforts were just as bad ! To keep harping about Afghanistan and ISIS in the same story is realistically laughable, but not as much as the acting, and direction !

Please avoid this film unless you are sitting in the toilet with nothing else to do !
