Before i begin reviewing this so-so film i have to mention that this film has inspired me to create a new movie list entitled 'Biggest Hollywood Dissapointments' that will place this movie at #1 and probably will remain #1 for some time. I had such high hopes upon seeing the trailer for this. I am not the biggest Liam Neeson fan at all although at times i will agree he shines and can actually be quite cool. (His performance in the Taken films for example) I had heard, which later turned out to be alot of whooey, that he of coarse spends a majority of the film battling wolves of gigantic proportions, sure their were wolf attacks unfortunatly though too dark and fast to even see the wolve pack at times, however none involved Neeson's charector like i was told. Now for those that havent seen the film and plan on it some day can stop reading my next part of this review...go ahead i'll wait... ok their is this huge 'alpha' male wolf who of coarse is the leader of the pack that we see quite often throughout and it doesnt take a course in brain surgery to know that sooner or later the wolf and Neeson's charector are going to bang heads, fast-forward to the ending Neeson is cornered, the lone survivor, sitting right smack dab in the wolve's den when we see the 'alpha male' appear growling as Liam is getting himself ready by strapping broken small airplane booze bottles to his knuckles. Looks like it's going to be the ultimate showdown of man vs beast...they lunge at each other....the screen goes black and credits start to rise? I'm like screaming now at my tv " NO NO NO!! WTF????"
All that tremendous build up for what? The chrectors in the film i hardly felt for except for a couple and the storyline was basically the equivalent of any Friday The 13th film ...slowly the cast is getting killed one by one..only the killers aren't Jason...but a pack of wolves. ZZZZZZZZZZZZ
If you enjoy wolf films that are far fetched then may i suggest this to you...Me, myself? I'll chalk this one up to be the biggest dissapointment of 2012..
