Lupi mannari

Not the best acting, and the special effects budget was obviously low, and yet this was a fun watch throughout. Definitely better than I expected, although I turned on subtitles to augment the dubbed soundtrack.

Lots of slapstick and pantomime type humour so plenty to amuse younger viewers. If you can ignore timetravel plot holes then this is a fun family film that is enjoyable enough.

I watched again in French with English subtitles and its definitely more exciting with the original voices. Some characters weren't fully developed which is a shame. It was nice to see the younger characters forming a relationship with their grandfather, freed from his dementia, and able to play a vital role in the drama.

This works. Or atleast the classical concept that we seen before, as in "Jumanji". But this time with a "horror" twist to it and it does not makes it any better.

Not often i watch French films, so I didnt know what to expect at all. I was intrigued by this since the first teaser trailer and i saw Jean Reno was in it, one of my favourite actors and that this really fits for the October days.

This feels really bad at some moments, abit silly sometimes, but it also manages to be abit more entertaining in periods. It's definitely a family movie that works on a friday evening, but not more then that. We have seen this concept before and the manuscript is really bad, nothing new or unique at all.

Jean Reno does a good performance, but the other actors are abit worse.

You can definitely watch this with your family on a weekend, but dont really expect too much from it.

Family Pack is a film most delightful, balancing simplicity with a spirited charm that warms the heart. It may not dazzle with a plot of intricate depth nor boast grand cinematic achievements, yet therein lies its unique allure. The film embraces its modest presentation, favouring practical effects that bring to life its whimsical elements, in a manner reminiscent of days when visual splendour required genuine artistry rather than reliance upon modern devices. Such choices impart a nostalgic comfort, reminiscent of family gatherings round the hearth.

While the picture may not be regarded as a pinnacle of the cinematic arts, its light-hearted humour and warmth make it a jovial companion for an evening of familial bonding. It is a gentle adventure, unsullied by grand pretensions, and aimed squarely at delivering mirth and pleasant company. A modest triumph, indeed, for those who seek joy in simplicity and find solace in a narrative that refuses to overreach its genial intentions.

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.

In fact it is a funny movie that you don't have to take everything seriously. It is just an adventure fantasy thriller for family that brings you back in the middle age. The sceneries therefore were done really great. All the actors contributed a top performance to create this story believable to the audience.

Watch it on a Saturday or Sunday evening when you don't have anything else to do and you will see how you will relax and have a good time. If you like this genre of film so check out Le Pacte des Loups with Vincent Cassell and Monica Bellucci.

For all these reasons my wife and me rate it 6/10.
