Wolves

Super unique concept and subversion on the murder mystery genre. The film moves a little slowly off the top but really starts to pick up pace as it drives towards the finale, which is brutal, shocking, and unlike anything I've seen before. Wolves plays with your expectations and the cliches of the genre and turns everything on it's head.

Mark Nocent gives a fantastic, nuanced performance as the unnamed "protagonist" who spends his sleepless nights driving to crime scenes and obsessively digging for clues.

Overall a very refreshing take on the murder mystery/true crime/thriller genre. It's not a horror film but god damn it got under my skin.

9/10.

This film has a sort of pure energy.

Many layers, excellent camerawork/cinematography... very meticulous and clean; also, understated.

Sure, it has its weak points... but they amount to a few frames and even add to the feature's appeal in that when they are peeled away the underlying realization remains.

Repeat viewings bring rewards.

Thoroughly grim and depressing might be appropriate adjectives to describe this independently produced "who-done-it" mystery, but I'd also like to add that it's one hell of a riveting watch, one that completely floored me with its captivating story and the sheer professionalism of the overall production.

Renaissance man Danny Dunlop apparently did most everything on the film (outside of acting) and deserves all the praise in the world, for crafting such an assured and compelling motion picture.

Seriously, the cinematography alone is absolutely stunning.

Disregarding a weird, tacked on epilogue (don't worry, it doesn't dampen the effectiveness of the movie) i'd conclude this; if you like dark and twisted thrillers brimming with slow burn atmosphere and stories revolving around isolation and obsession, then I wholeheartedly recommend this film for your next movie night.

There are pictures that really shouldn't be allowed, and this is one of them.

A non interesting film with no meaning or context.

And I paid for this, which is sad!

Slow movie where conversation between two comrades are the most interesting thing happening in the movie.

There should be a law of common rule or at least a warning for movies like this, so the ordinance can choose what to wast there life with, and this movie is definitely a waist of time.

Pardon my English, but it seems more like the producer is testing he's equipment or just wants to waist his life.

It's sad so sad. Please don't do it again!

Slow movie with senseless plot. Characters bad portrayed as well as sequences. Difficult to understand the message or the intention of the director. Canada is a beautiful country but the movie does not show any of that beauty. Run down places and lack of making you feel to watch till the end. You have to keep pushing yourself to watch until the end to be further disappointed by it. Actors do an acceptable job in spite of the poor production.

Quality of the imaging is not good, flat colours and not properly focussed in some scenes.

Not horror movie either, unless it is referring to the quality of the movie itself.
