200% Wolf

The pink-maned "Freddy" is more akin to a poodle than a wolf, but he is spirited when it comes to helping out his pack of lupine super-heroes who try to help out those in distress! Fed up constantly being put down, he looks skyward and makes a wish. Next thing, there's a moon spirit "Moopoo" before him and he's no longer a wimp. Thing is, though, his new blue friend needs life energy to survive, and so they have to find a way to repatriate him with his own kind on the moon else a catastrophe will befall all of us! There's only one way to do that, and that's to find "Max" - an ostracised wolf who lives deep in the forest and who possesses the magic spell required. Off they go on their search, but will the grudge-bearing "Max" even want to help them or might she have her own cunning plan to avenge herself on those who cast her out? It's quite a fun family adventure this but it does struggle to find it's audience. The very young probably won't appreciate the sense of (tea time) menace, especially towards the end - and those a bit older will probably be put off by the initially rather childish characterisation of "Freddy". It's also probably twenty minutes too long, but as a simple light-hearted drama it does what it says on the tin, touching of the aspirations of all of us when we are young and wanting to fit in, to lead and be valued. Forgettable stuff, but it's decently animated and watchable enough.

I did not expect a lot, tbh... I got even less.

How can such a poor story even become a cinema movie?

This movie lacks of everything. The graphic style is approved, but that is it.

You don't get any explanation why humans are dogs and wolves, kids get no explanation why the the moon causes a lack of gravity in one scene and there is such a lotbof baby language like in Teletubbies in this movie, that it is really hard to fillow a certain storyline here.

The background graphics often consist of non motional pictures and the jokes are just not fun at all. After 20 minutes my wife fell asleep and I wanted to go home. My daughter admit this was just a long movie, seemingly never ending

Worst movie of the decade...

No consistent plot, it feels like they just wanted to make a sequel.

The story lacks depth, and it's hard to connect with any of the characters. The pacing is uneven, and the scenes feel disjointed, making it difficult to stay engaged. The dialogue feels forced, and the humor falls flat. Even the action scenes lack excitement and seem repetitive. The special effects were underwhelming and did nothing to enhance the experience.

My son barely wanted to finish the movie, and honestly, I can't blame him. It was a disappointment and didn't live up to the potential of the first film. Wouldn't recommend it.

Giving this an 7/10 rating

The animation is good and colourful in this very simple enough feature, and since I didn't see the first film, I can say you don't have to see '100% Wolf', but it helps. It is what you expect, there are some good laughs here and there, the story is there, very simple, but not really super high league as 'Inside Out 2'

The cast does work and they doesn't over act,as Jennifer Saunders seems to be having the most fun here, as the rest of the cast run across the country chasing down the trouble making but kindhearted hero of the piece on the road of new discovery. Very heavily influenced by Australian folk lore, the magic elements are fun, nothing scary at all, thanks to neat character and production design animation from Flying Bark Productions, and at 85 minutes, it's quick and easy.

200% Wolf is fantastic. Honestly a great movie to watch with your kids - my nieces and nephews really enjoyed it. The quality for an indie movie as amazing as well, you can tell the team put alot of effort into making it look great. The characters are loveable, and Moopoo really steals the show. It was entertaining to watch for myself as an adult too, and I think the messages in the movie about being yourself really resonate with all age groups.

It's silly, fun, heartwarming - overall a solid family movie. I would love to see what other adventures this rag-tag team of dogs get into in the future.
