Teen Wolf: The Movie

As a fan who came to watch Teen Wolf many years after it first aired I fell in love with the relationships and characters of the "Pack"

This belated re-visit misses the spot on so many levels. Lack of characterisation lack of creativity lack of drive. It all just feels thrush together and slapdash.

Dylan O'Brien and Arden Cho' absence is felt immensely and the return of Crystal Reed doesn't really work for me. Such a shame they just couldn't have just left us with the tv series original ending. This serves as a disservice and adds nothing to the shows history simple a poor epilogue of good memories long lost.

I think all valid points made by other posters about the story plot holes, but honestly I didn't remember how the story ended exactly since a few years have past from the last time I watched it.

The biggest boomer for me was that they managed to bring back almost all the cast except the one, that generally is considered the star of the show. Without him, humour was less funny and I also think he elevates the acting level of the whole group. It's like Batman without Batman or Black Panther without Black Panther (which Hollywood actually did)

If you don't care much about the old story and accept everything as told, it's actually an entertaining watch. Not bad for a low budget production which I guess was made purely out of nostalgia and love for the product.

Liked the ending given.

Derek's wretched ending was the absolute worst thing about this movie. I literally cannot fathom why they thought this was OK. He deserved so much better than that. I could have forgiven the awful villain(s), the absence of Stiles Stilinski ( at least the Sheriff was around), Allison coming back from the dead like it's no big deal etc. Really, I could have forgiven this movie many, many sins, but the disrespect towards Derek is too much. Yes, the creator said it was supposed to be heroic or some such nonsense, but Derek deserved a happy ending. Was this a happy ending? No, no it was not. I'm so angry.

This movie feels rushed because it was. It feels like it was pieced together hastily from ill-fitting pieces because it was.

It's clear Jeff Davis was trying to write the movie even as he wasn't sure who from the cast of characters was returning, and who wasn't.

The best part of this movie is Tyler Hoechlin, and he's the only reason I watched it and the only reason I suggest anyone watch it. Somehow, despite juggling Superman and Lois filming at the same time (and having to switch between two different characters), he actually showed up. Regardless of what I think of Derek Hale's overall plot line in the movie, Tyler brought the best he could to the role, he brought heart and soul to an otherwise empty movie.

It baffles me that so many of the other cast feel like they phoned it in -- of course the writing utterly failed them, so it's not all their fault.

I understand why fans are upset, I understand why they feel let down. Because looking at Teen Wolf Season 3, you see the potential of these characters. You can see that with some actual care, the show could be great and if production had been allowed more time, maybe this movie could have been better since it's clear Season 3 was the inspiration. I have to think that, at least in part, this movie failed due to being rushed through to serve as a promotional tool for Wolf Pack, and nothing more. And sadly, it shows in nearly every frame.

To keep it short: -watched it because I am a fan of the show -mediocre script, lines, cuts, scenes, new characters(old characters that are simply brought back just to stand there...yes I'm talking about Liam) and overall everything because it is rushed to pack everything in one go. It wasn't enough to make a series so (probably because of money too) they just stuffed everything in a movie.

A miniseries would have been better than to rush everything and get so many illogical actions and plot holes.

The idea behind was not horrible, but how it was done it did a great injustice to the franchise since it could've been handled better.
