This is one big pot of nonsense stew. The script doesn't have a single original idea, everything is borrowed, both from superior movies and equally stupid ones. It's like an amateurish mashup of every werewolf movie you've ever seen. Ginger Snaps in particular says hello throughout, there are echoes of When Animals Dreams, which is actually a decent Scandinavian coming of age cum werewolf movie. A chaste and sanitized ghost of American Werewolf in London is somewhere in there, too.

There's a bit of teenage family drama thrown in, there's young love, both of which don't take the story anywhere.

The dialogue is very bad, the production bland, the overall look is that of a minor TV movie. There are multiple goofs and continuity issues.

Worst of all, the movie is a bore.

Worst ive seen coming outta my countrys film-''industry'', it lacks so much, and that maybe due to the fact that the plot idea couldve been an international blockbuster...

allthough im negative in the start, you will be awarded with some decent and scenic natural camerashoots of norwegian environment, you will be amazed by the quality on the special effects, especially the werewolf, and the wound makeup of the victims...

but the way they tell this story is a cathastrophee en masse', the cast of actors look like theyve forgotten their lines and stutters till full stop, so the script must be a failure, and the willingness of the director to do tiring retakes till the product is perfect are totally absent. The '' cut and glue'' guy on the production line appears not to have been at the actual shooting scenes, and have done the matter just reading the screenplay...

so with a fair amount of goodwill i wont offer more than a 4 outta 10 for this film, i agree with loads of the reviews ive seen on the olin'e, a no recommend from the grumpy old man.

A low budget but tightly done Norwegian horror movie about an ancient Werewolf that survives until the 21st Century and wrecks havoc on a small town. This is not necessarily anything new or unusual in the genre of Werewolf movies, but maybe that is part of the charm. It has all the basic tropes of the Werewolf legends. I won't list them for fear of spoilers, but this is not the movie to watch for a new take on werewolves. More likely, it is an homage to the source material on them. The cast is good. The Direction is decent. It is a solid horror movie. The special effects are the weakest part. It is foreign language with English Subtitles.

I have to hand it to the norwegians, they always seem to have some of the best movies and this is no different. It was fun and intriging to watch. The cast were pretty good though I cant compare them to other films that they were in., but from what i can see here they were great. This movie is all about a young girl named Thale. One day after hanging out with friends by the bay, she is attacked along with others, that one bite changes her, and not for the best. What we come to is a stand off with other wolves. There is quite a bit of blood shed as a warning but I liked the mystery of it all and the atmosphere built up worked. Overall an enjoyable norwegian thriller.

If u were a werewolf fan, I honestly tell u that it's a far cry from the Underworld franchise with Kate Beckinsale (Selene) nor Teen Wolf with O'Brien. Its Nordic style gave me an exotic impression, which was the only thing that kept me on my seat.

It has severely limited SFX, and a fairy thin n straight forward plot. Each character is not fully developed and none of their role is compelling. For the whole movie time I totally didn't understand why Liv gotta work almost alone as a police officer. I couldn't feel any love in the movie, regardless the family one not the fancy one. The university lecturer/ vet seemed more like a junior lab tech. Expert, seriously? The director should have chosen a more seriously-looking actor (e.g. Imagine Tom Cruise). And then the old man werewolf hunter looked like an amateur. Get someone looks like Sean Connery please! And how boredom was his advices!!!! Just silver bullets n habitats. Any movie fan can tell her more! Twist? None at all. Ending? What a vague ending. I surmise the director also got fell flat and didn't wanna have a sequel. Thus forget about any cliffhanger.

Lastly but not the least, the werewolf looked plastic to me. It's fake, lame, absurd, and def not a scary one.

After all it's Ok as an entertainment, B-class, for 1-1/2 hr. Don't expect anything else.
