Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
adonis98-743-186503 A boy is trying to find out about his family history and stumbles upon a town of lycans. Wolves even tho it's a B-Movie it's one of the better ones for example Jason Momoa is terrific in here and so is Lucas Till also the wolves transformations are better than your average straight to dvd flick and there's also lots of action and fun to be had. Overall a great movie to be honest and one of Momoa's best perfomances to date next to Aquaman and people who liked films like Wolf (1994) or The Wolfman (2010) won't be disappointed. (A+)
WolfTheLycan For a werewolf movie, I love it! Though, it isn't perfect. Some scenes have not-so-great CGI, making it too weird and unrealistic. The highest praise I will give this movie is definitely the makeup and costume design...very cool to look at! The acting is pretty good for a direct-to-DVD-and-Blu Ray movie. The story isn't anything new, but it's decent. Sadly, what killed the movie is the aforementioned CGI; not only that, there's a certain scene that seems to be forced and could have been better without. But for the most part, I had a great time watching this movie. I really like the action scenes, the acting, and most of all, the really cool makeup and costume design!
Claudio Carvalho The teenager Cayden Richards (Lucas Till) lives in a small town with his parents Dean Richards (Stephen Sparks) and Janice Richards (Jennifer Hale) and is having violent nightmares. He is the quarterback of the local football team and his girlfriend Lisa Stewart (Kaitlyn Leeb) is a cheerleader. After a game, Lisa decides to have sex with Cayden for the first time in the car. However he transforms into a monster and she flees from him. He goes home and finds his parents murdered. He leaves town hitchhiking while he is wanted by the police and he learns that his parents were actually stepparents.Cayden decides to find his origins and helps a prostitute at a truck stop that is assaulted by two men. Then he steals the motorcycle of one of the men and later he stops at a bar where he meets the weird Wild Joe (John Pyper-Ferguson). The stranger identifies that Cayden is a wolf and gives the direction to Lupine Ridge. Cayden arrives in a bar owned by the teenagers Angelina "Angel" Timmins (Merritt Patterson) and Gail Timmins (Melanie Scrofano) and he asks for a job, telling that his name is Danny. However he is not welcomed by the locals and he leaves the bar. But a man called John Tollerman (Stephen McHattie) hires him to work in his farm where he lives with his wife Clara Tollerman (Janet- Laine Green). Soon Cayden learns that John is his uncle and his mother was raped by the local leader Connor (Jason Momoa). He also finds that he is a pure town wolf together with John, Angeline, Gail and two other inhabitants. Connor is also pure, but has formed a pack of impure wolves and has a pact with the inhabitants to leave them in peace. But he is getting old and wants to have a baby with Angelina as part of the deal. But the problem is, Cayden and Angelina has fallen in love for each other and Cayden intends to stop Connor."Wolves" is an entertaining adventure underrated in IMDb maybe because it is indicating the horror genre, frustrating the fans of this genre. The plot is predictable but the characters are charismatic; Lucas Till and Merritt Patterson have a great chemistry; and the special effects and fight choreography are excellent. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Lobos" ("Wolves")
a_baron What is worse than a werewolf? A werewolf with a short temper? This theme has of course been done to death and then some, including the teen wolf angle here. Having murdered his parents, apparently without realising it, a straight A high school student hits the road. After stealing a bike and murdering two thugs while rescuing a damsel in distress, he meets a fellow werewolf, an old guy who points him in the right direction to...and if it were not silly enough already, it gets even sillier when he relocates to a remote town that has its own pack, a town where he learns the truth about himself, and eventually, about the death of his parents.It has to be said that in spite of its theme, "Wolves" is fairly original, a bit of teen sex is thrown in, and what may pass for humour, but the saving grace of this film is that it is relatively short. There are some half-decent special effects, but these take place mostly at night, which diminishes their impact significantly.
