Details

It's an experiment in human behavior. It's an exploration of the most natural of animal impulses. It's something new under the moon. And it bites. When security dispatcher Aaron Scates is blinded in an explosion, he's put in the care of Dr. Andrea Hewlitt, famous in her field for spearheading extraordinary-though controversial-medical breakthroughs. Her newest is cross-species organ transplants, and Aaron is her first human subject. When a severely wounded wolf is brought to Dr. Hewlitt's office by museum curator Lydia Armstrong, Dr. Hewlitt leaps on the opportunity and successfully transplants the wolf's eyes to Aaron-despite Lydia's objections. Aaron, however, is thrilled. Not only can he see again, he can see in the dark. He also has an unusually acute sense of hearing, and tears into a raw steak like never before. Unfortunately, he also tends growl, and to target people as prey.

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
wolfsbane_33 I actually thought that this movie pretty good. But can be re-filmed to be better. Everyone who thought this movie was bad is wrong it is good! Especially with Cory Monteith. Obviously there was going to be no singing It was made in 2007 and Glee was made in like 2009! Cory had no idea That he was going to be a Glee star.Also I like how they didn't actually make him actually turn into a wolf (Even though I like that sorta stuff) Because in most movies its stereotypical. He gets bitten, His life sucks. Loses everything and then turns out right. BUT! in this movie It was a whole different concept. I liked it and Maybe in the future they can make it better.
patmcde The movie is a good movie and it is Science fiction so if it is not good because of stuff that can't happen in real life they should not watch science fiction movies!!!The story line was a little awful though! Someone with better acting skills and directing should be a part of a movie like that! Someone should try to remake the movie and add more detail to the original movie idea! Besides those issues this movie is a good movie for teenagers like me that just enjoy the way it turned out!I like wolves and that is part of the reason why I like the movie! And there are people out there that enjoy this movie too! Just because some people are retarded that doesn't give anyone the right not to try to have a remake of the movie! And if given the chance I would even be a part of the movie as an actor!
amorarite This was a great movie with some beautiful imagery of wolves. There's a spiritual element to these scenes in a way so if your not willing to open yourself up to a nature oriented spiritual viewpoint you really won't get it. It's a nice change from your typical blood and gore filled werewolf movie where people are being mauled and eaten alive. If you've seen any other movies involving transplants you'll know of the phenomenon surrounding some where the receive seems to take on the characteristics of the donor. This movie is a play on that theme. In my opinion the Native American element was a nice way to tie everything together. If you know anything about native Americans and how wolves are revered in their culture you'd get it. I loved the ending scene where Aaron is running with the wolves.To set some things Bill-625 said straight because they're a bit misleading:Those weren't monkeys in the lab. They were baboons. Which have huge teeth that can rip a good sized chunk out of your arm. So I can understand her reluctance in running out of the lab at full speed and drawing attention to herself- that would have been stupid. Baboons+running= death by primate.The scene where Aaron escaped out the window, the reason they knew he was there was that they see his clothes from the lab on the floor. Also it'd be plain ridiculous for them to assume he went out the window just because the window is left open. And since they didn't see him go out the window or look out the window and see him running away from the building (he was long gone by the point they did look out) they obviously didn't make that assumption. Which I give this movie points for. Too many movies seem to magically have the pursuers knowing that the hero went out the window with no real evidence on their part to support the fact.The "grouchy old medicine man" has the important role of sending Aaron out on his spirit quest to connect with the wolf spirit. So he was there to do more than just "spout platitudes" and "add atmosphere."When the military men start shooting at the trees, it's understandable- they're in a forest with wolves and Aaron ducking through trees around them- they're spooked, so of course they start firing. If anything the scene shows the writer has an understanding of the human mind and how it functions under stress.The reason they didn't use the guns to take our hero out, is because Aaron takes the guy he has the knife fight with over the cliff when the guns were being reloaded, and the guy left on the cliff couldn't get a clear shot at him hence the knife fight. Also all the other guys with machine guns are incapacitated by that point so there weren't actually six machine guns available.---There were a few points in the movie that needed more work. I thought the hand to hand fight scenes could have used more energy.
m-adrienne I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I saw several characters get killed and enjoyed every killing. They all deserved it! If I had had my druthers, I'd have killed a few more. I found it refreshing to see a movie which did not have the moral requirement that people who kill should be killed. Delightful.As for the hero being stupid (as written by another the reviewer who called this movie, bad) for leaving a window open when escaping, I can only point to James Bond in Casino Royale, telling his French Colleague how he knew when Le Chiffre was bluffing at poker. Dumb, dumb, dumb, 007. I found the scenes in the woods – SWAT type of guys with machine guns against an unarmed man – riveting. And the wolves! Great actors.
