Los hombres lobo

It was supposed to be an awesome movie. The premise is great. It's very catchy from the start, it really holds you into the story, and you begin to identify with all the characters.

However, around 40 minutes inside the movie, the first MESSAGE is thrown into you.

Since the movie is great, then you just ignore it (as always) and just keep going. However, you already start thinking "why did they have to do this". But ok, keep going.

Then, around 10 minutes later another MESSAGE is thrown in, without any need at all.

At this point you kind of already know that unfortunately will be the rest of the movie like.

I kept watching for another 5 min, until the third MESSAGE was thrown in. That's when I just stopped the movie. It was enough.

Another great idea killed by THE MESSAGE.

Graded as 3, because the original premise was great.

"Loups-Garous" is an enjoyable watch that doesn't demand much mental investment. It's the kind of movie where you can sit back, relax, and let yourself be entertained without overthinking the plot. The light-hearted tone, paired with witty dialogue, makes it an accessible and fun experience for casual viewers. You can also tell that the cast is having a great time bringing their characters to life, which adds an extra layer of charm to the film.

That said, the movie does leave some opportunities unexplored. In particular, the theme of family relationships feels underdeveloped. While the story hints at deeper emotional connections, it never quite dives into them, which might leave viewers craving more depth. Still, this doesn't detract too much from the overall enjoyment-it's clear that this isn't trying to be a heavy or overly complex movie.

In the end, *"Loups-Garous"* is a solid popcorn flick that delivers exactly what it promises: entertainment. It might not be groundbreaking, but it's definitely worth a watch for fans of light-hearted sci-fi or action.

Thats what it felt like, atleast to an extent but it has to be said the mentioned film is much better than this. Though from what ive seen its only the second time a concept like this has been done so its still a fresh idea and now netflix have helmed this new french movie, with jean reno whos a pleasure to see but I don't understand why he was dubbed. A family sit down to play a game for family game night and as is tradition they play the game called wolf I think. Everyone ends up not playing it but the father while putting the pieces away awakens something and before they know it they are swept off into the game and stuck in the middle ages with a frightful king and the threat of wolfes each night. An overall good movie but not without it faults. Acting was alright and it did have parts that made me laugh.

Family Pack is a film that falls short on multiple fronts, making it a rather disappointing experience. The plot, which centers around a dysfunctional family trying to navigate their differences, is cliché and lacks originality. The script is riddled with predictable moments and uninspired dialogue, failing to deliver any meaningful or memorable lines.

The acting, unfortunately, does little to salvage the film. The performances feel forced and lack the emotional depth needed to make the characters relatable or engaging. Even seasoned actors seem to struggle with the poorly written material, resulting in a series of lackluster portrayals that fail to resonate with the audience. Not the worst movie I've seen, but definitely not in depth of what expected like I tell most people give it a watch and be the one to judge for yourself cause you may never know you might enjoy it more than others.

Family Pack attempts a modern, quirky spin on a medieval adventure, but sadly, it misses the mark on nearly every front. The acting is shockingly poor, with the cast delivering lines so awkwardly and out of place that you wonder if they're trying to parody themselves. Their attempts at humor fall flat, making several scenes almost painful to watch as they fumble through punchlines with zero finesse.

The plot feels like a weak knock-off of Jumanji, though without any of the charm or coherence. Scenes unfold with no clear direction, bouncing aimlessly from one setup to the next. Even more puzzling is the random appearance of Leonardo da Vinci, who seems to be there purely to tick a box rather than to add anything meaningful to the story.

Adding to the confusion are clumsy, heavy-handed attempts to push social messages about race and gender roles in the Middle Ages. These themes feel forced, overly simplistic, and ultimately ineffective, dragging the movie down even further. All in all, Family Pack is a chaotic mix of bad writing, poor acting, and misguided social commentary, and unfortunately, it's not even entertaining in a "so bad it's good" way.
