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.

Had kind of a Teen Wolf meets The Lost Boys kind of thing going on.I liked the fact that there was no CGI used it was all special effects and makeup, which was a nice break from todays excessive use of CGI. It's kind of what had me sold on it to be honest, the effort put into the costumes. You can see by the pictures they put a lot into the work on the wolves.I think Angelica and Cayden looked pretty sweet as wolves, They looked about as real as a human/wolf could look, certainly looked better than Jack Nicholson's Wolf.Yeah the acting wasn't spectacular, but really, when it comes to these kind of lower budget films.. It definitely isn't Underworld in that aspect but still it was a good little weekend special.

This is a better than average Werewolf movie. For a fairly low budget film, the quality is surprisingly high. The special effects are also much better than you would expect from this type of movie.Jason Momoa is especially well cast as the head of the "Wolf Pack". He has the looks and the sheer physical presence to pull off this kind of role. Far less successful is Lucas Till.At this point in his career, he simply does not have the experience to carry an entire movie. He comes across like a bland "Ken Doll", than a character with a dark secret in his past. The script has a "been there done that" aspect to it. It steals elements from any number of previous movie sin this genre. Do not expect anything even remotely new or innovative here.If you like werewolf movies, this one is worth your while to watch.
