Hybrid

When i saw the preview for this on TV i was thinking, "ok its gonna be a good werewolf movie" but it was not. it was not scary at all! acting was good, plot was horrible, the military bid was just plain stupid. I think the SCI-FI channel could of done better than this piece of crap. The movie made it sound like Arron was going to turn into a werewolf, instead he turned psycho and bit some doctor's throat out. If you have read some of my other reviews on other movies, there all positive, but this one is not simply because the story was terrible. One out of 10 max. Im sure you all were expecting some werewolf flick, but i bet you didn't expect this. Beyond Loch Nes was way better than this movie, heck, any movie thats on the sci-fi channel is better than this movie.

So this little jem came at a .. what's next moment. Not the blockbuster but has a lot of love and some what if. This is right up there, for me, with powow highway and interstate 60. The conclusion is the heart of this gem.

I hired out Hybrid on the weekend. What a disappointment! A stupid lame attempt at a tele-movie. The guy they got for the lead was totally weak and when running {he did a lot} looked like he was eating those minty sweets...with his backside! The wolf contacts he wore were great, though I feel the actor relied on them too much, as there was nothing menacing about his acting at all. The wise native American Indian chick has to be one of the most stony hard faced hags ever seen. Talk about a sour cow! She smiled about once for the entire film, and I think that is because she had sex. The sex scene was lame too. They may as well have shown blowing curtains, if you can dig that.

Last of all, and this is a big pet hate of mine, on the cover and the DVD menu, the losers digitally drew in cool sharp teeth on the guy. They were nowhere to be seen in the film. :(

The plot sounded like it had promise. To be honest I did not watch the entire movie. After about an hour into the movie I had to make a decision. Is this movie worth watching until it conclusion? The answer was clearly NO! It was not the fact that the human body could not receive a transplant from a different species without rejecting it. Nor the premise that he was being chased by secret government authorities for an human / wolf transplant. It was because the movie was badly written, acting lacked emotion and I did not understand the several dream sequences with the wolves and buffaloes. When he was running to the zoo with a dog pack and leaving them at the front of the zoo gate the saying "If you can't run with the big dogs don't leave the porch" kept running through my bored mind. Save yourself the time and skip this movie. I can guarantee if you do dare to watch it you will sit there slack jawed as I did wondering why anyone waste money, time, energy and effort to make this insulting outrage to American cinema.

Is it just me or could the movie be better with more of him running and shots of wolves growling? On the other hand that is all this movie is, with a few Native Americans thrown in for atmosphere. The kills are boring and plot is weak for such a unique idea. Mallory from Family ties cannot save this move, but did make the beginning more interesting with the "hey isn't that?" "Oh she was the sister in..." The lead guy is fit, but shirtless cannot make a movie and it seems like the director was like, um it not long enough, can we add about 40 shots of him shirtless. While it's better than if he was 400 lbs. It quickly becomes gratuitous and irritating, because they are shots that lead nowhere. I'm still bitter about the loss of those 90 minutes. While you may see this on scyfy and think, why not? Don't. Its a bore and a half. Watch a few reruns of something instead.
