Wolves

Yes it's not Underworld or whatever great Production from the past decades but it's a decend Werewolf Movie that didn't waste my time.

For a low budget movie, It surprisingly decent. After his great performance as Kal Drogo, Jason Momoa really show that he actually can act IMHO. He steal the thunder from main character of this movie. Well, I can't say much since English is not my first language but all I can tell, despite some of it's flaws such the weak plot and one or two scenes that made me cringed a little, I did enjoy watching this movie.

At the end of a tiring day, I just want to sit down on my comfy couch alone without my girlfriend bothering me, turn on my bluray and home theater system, and watch a movie that not trying to preach me about life lesson, or some chick flick come from fan-fiction that my girlfriend really like.

A popular teenager in the Northeast (Lucas Till) discovers that he's a werewolf and escapes to the road after a tragedy at home. Upon getting a tip from Lemmy (John Pyper-Ferguson), he ends up in Lupine Ridge where he obtains a job at a farm and develops a relationship with a young bar owner (Merritt Patterson), which offends the wolfish town leader (Jason Momoa). Stephen McHattie plays the friendly farmer who takes the boy under his wings.

The creatively titled "Wolves" (2014) is a quality werewolf flick that's reminiscent of the Marvel comic book Werewolf by Night. (Even the werewolves resemble Don Perlin's versions a little). It has elements of The Howling franchise, but with better production values than the sequels, as well as a dash of "Twilight" (2008) and "The Messengers" (2007). (I hate mentioning "Twilight" because it will automatically turn off loads of people, but I mean the good aspects of that infamous movie).

"Wolves" has the right choices for the main cast, enough gore, some decent action, beautiful women, notable songs and exquisite Ontario locations with great nighttime sylvan ambiance. Yes, it's thoroughly comic booky, but it's well made for what it is and delivers the goods. I saw the theatrical version, but I heard the unrated version is a vast improvement with additional exposition.

The film runs 1 hour, 31 minutes and was shot in Ontario in the greater Toronto area.

GRADE: B+

I honestly don't know why some people have responded so negatively towards this film. Perhaps they did not watch more than the first twenty or so minutes.

It takes Wolves time to get off the ground and the segue into the story is not managed all that well, giving the initial impression of a clumsy B movie. If however, you persist you will be rewarded. Wolves improves as a the story progresses. The story itself is predicable horror fare but its competently done and very enjoyable.

The acting is solid too, and includes some capable Canadian actors you may be familiar with, such as Stephen McHattie, of Pontypool fame.

My advice ignore the negative nellies and give Wolves a go. You wont be disappointed. Eight out of ten from me.

Looking for blockbuster CG effects? this ain't it. Your sure to be disappointed. However if your looking for something better then reality TV and Sharknado? Then this is a well done little movie, with some decent talent, although i wouldn't say the dialog or acting is Oscar worthy, The movie entertained me, i enjoyed it and most of the time that is exactly what i ask of my movies, allow me to escape to forget about my worries and dramas and enjoy some entertainment.

Looking for a decent quality movie without the hype? this is it. Some decent plot twists, kept me engrossed throughout. I would recommend it for ages over 10. Biggest surprise i can't recall any f bombs ... hmmm maybe i'm just desensitized to it these days.
