If you're looking for a decent, beautiful film with heart and hope, this is it. Filmed in beautiful Wyoming and Utah, the cinematic glory of the setting goes on and on. Now add a beautiful message from the grungy, silent, wise dad that we are all connected. Now add the hope of a sad and angry teenager finding meaning and goodness in the wilds where the wolves roam...

What more can you ask for?

This is a must see film. A fantastic coming of age story set in Yellowstone National Park. The reintroduced wolf packs are a back story in the film, so if you love wolves you have to see it! Druid Peak was filmed in Wyoming and Utah. The cinematography is amazing. The director was able to use amazing natural light to back light many scenes. I kept thinking the crew must have had to be up early to shoot some of the scenes where the light is coming through the forest.

Andrew Wilson underplayed his character so well, it made me rethink all the talking we do as parents. The director's pacing of the scenes was amazing I loved when the camera lingered on a shot for a long time in order to increase the tenderness of the scene. Something that has gone by the wayside in modern movie making.

If you love wolves, love the outdoors, and love independent films this is a must see movie! I highly recommend Druid Peak.

Druid Peak is what great indie films should aspire towards-a great and meaningful script, cinematography that is elegant, yet restrained and performances from Spencer Treat Clark and Andrew Wilson that are believable and powerful. First time writer-director Marni Zelnick has incredible talent in both categories, but the writing , which weaves a coming of age story against the wolf reintroduction program in Yellowstone, is impressive in the extreme. Clark's character makes a journey from a completely unlikable bully to a person of substance as he discovers that wild places, and the creatures that inhabit them, can have a healing effect on those who are open to them. The transformation is both believable and more than a little inspiring.

Rachel Morrison lenses this picture with the incredible talent for which she has become widely-recognized. Her mark is on every scene, sumptuous, yet incisive. Wyoming becomes one of the"characters" of the movie under her able hands.

The chemistry between the 2 laconic leads, Spencer Treat Clark and Andrew Wilson, evolves inexorably and each actor shines in the way their relationship develops as they deliver the terse and excellent dialogue.

While set against the timely background of the effect wolves and other apex predators have on the trophic cascade, this is much more than a conservation movie, despite its message. It shows how transformation can come in many forms, including the ability to discover the wild within us.

Scenic vistas greatly enhanced this movie but it could have been paced and edited better. Writing set up a Main character who was hard to like throughout the whole film. He was a spoiled jerk at the start and although his emotional arc followed a positive, believable path, it was only a few months of change after all.

The movie deals with many topics that could be studied and The pace leaves plenty of room for dialog.

Do you believe in Santa Clause? The Easter Bunny? Fairy tales? If so, this is a movie for you. If you want to think that life is a "TV" movie and kids are all sweet and easily trained to the way we want them to be, then watch this movie and delude yourself. This movie belongs on the "Disney Channel". Beautiful cinematography, but other than that, this movie is a fairy tale. Get back to real life.

A fantastic film, charming uplifting, thought-provoking visually striking and incredibly well acted. Great to see the kid from Unbreakable doing excellent work.

I cried during this more than I've cried during a movie in a long time. And I cry a lot during movies. Honestly, even watching the trailer again just now I cried. This film is about a kid who's having a rough time and goes to live with his estranged father who monitors wolf packs in Wyoming, and then finds himself while learning about and tracking these wolves. Not only is this film totally beautiful to watch because of the landscape and wildlife, but it's also an intensely heartfelt and touching story. I think there's just something about seeing someone who is hurting so much and having such a hard time with life find something that fills their heart and brings them a sense of purpose. Spencer, the lead actor, was AMAZING and gave an absolutely masterful performance in this film. Watch out for him. I can't believe he's not being cast in every movie right now. If this doesn't get a theatrical release, I'm going to lose all faith in the film industry.

Had the opportunity to see Druid Peak at the Florida Film Festival in April of 2014. It was the surprise hit of the festival, and won the Audience Award for Best Feature. Not often do you get a film with a conservation & environmental angle that skillfully and successfully implements an equally worthwhile human angle - Druid Peak did just that.

A must see. Writer and Director Marni Zelnick is truly talented and the cast is anchored by Spencer Treat Clark. Andrew Wilson, the more attractive of the Wilson brothers delivers a fantastic performance.

Can't wait for this film to gain distribution and reach the masses, it deserves it.

Great movie. Unexpected, I must say. Great Cinematography. I especially liked the father-son moments on horseback towards the end of the movie. Gorgeously shot. Loved loved loved it.

Such a wonderful movie. I very very rarely give anything 10 stars but this was first rate. Thank you Marni Zelnick for this absolute gem! Why are there not more movies like this? The story is compelling; messed up teenage kid is sent to his Father in Wyoming and finds himself and starts to heal from his former life of meaningless mediocrity. I spent 3 months living around Jackson where this was filmed and it is gorgeous scenery. Excellent writing; very good acting by all. I particularly liked the role of the Father. He knew exactly how to act and speak with his errant son. An example of good parenting. For me, the movie underlines the need for our young people and children to be out in nature and among wild animals most of the time. Being stuck in classrooms is not an education. What this young man had in Wyoming was an education and what all young people need, in my opinion. I absolutely LOVED the teaching the Father gives on the ride, explaining how it was only when the wolves came back to Yellowstone that the behavior of the elk, moose changed resulting in more trees, plants, birds and thus showing how we really are all connected.. but he waited until his son had been nurtured enough by the land, the wolves and the experience before speaking these words. Thank you so much Ms. Zelnick... this has become one of my favorite movies ever. Please make something else with as much heart set again somewhere where it's still wild and free.

Gorgeous cinematography and wildlife settings in wholesome coming of age story. Lovely settings and camera work. Seemingly balanced father figure showing patience in a casually paced setting and just delightful use of actual wildlife and maybe animal actors to help a troubled teen take a step toward maturing into a young man.

Jaw dropping Yellowstone locations and a compelling tale bring man and nature together in a warm, heartfelt journey of discovery and reconciliation. It measures up against some of Disney's greatest nature adventures. Stunning photography and memorable performances make this a must see movie experience, and those wolves!.

Very moving film , a joy to watch as it progresses and you see the subtle changes in the lead character 's behaviour and happiness as he learns to enjoy his new surroundings , and observe nature.

Gorgeous landscapes, great soundtrack, and a meaningful storyline. I really appreciated Owen's growth over the course of the movie.

Several reviewers spoke of an unlikeable main character but I feel they missed the point. The troubled kid at the beginning of the movie is not supposed to be likeable, he's on a self destructive path. This is as much a story about redemption as it is a story about the wolves and their perceived value from different groups. This film beautifully captures the fallibility of humans, our ability to change and grow, to see opposing viewpoints, the interconnection of life around us and the value of redemption.

Cinematography is absolutely gorgeous and I appreciated the message that prompted me to do some research into the Druid Pack of Yellowstone. This is an incredible Indie film that this old soul will be watching again.
