Don't Listen To Critic Wannabes
This movie wasn't great, but unlike other people making reviews so they can feel special. This movie was good. Most people see a movie and try to compare it to another movie so they don't have to think for themselves or they hear what other people say and go into the movie hating it before they have seen it, without thinking for themselves and come out trying to agree with what they read.
I never read anything about this movie before I saw it, and with not reading anything beforehand I enjoyed this movie.
Was it great, NO, was it entertaining and enjoyable, YES.
The complaints I have read on IMDb make me wonder if people have seen this movie or just want to make themselves feel like someone is listening to them.
The only complaint I have is the two hunting leads, they were too old and moved like it, I understand needing a name, but when someone needs a shotgun to help himself up or runs like my grandpa being chased by a mouse, you have to wonder if a name is worth making your movie funny at a seniors expense.
All in all without telling you what the movie is about or trying to spoil it, this is a good movie with funny moments and a message, even if said message made me want to turn it off.
Don't listen to the Ebert wannabes on this site, watch and enjoy.
And if you agree with them, go watch Transformers 2; you'll enjoy it as much as they did.

Potential wasted
This is probably due to poor editing. There are too many jumps in the story, like key elements are left on the cutting room floor. How did they get out of the war zone alive? Very little character development, other than John Saxon's character. A few familiar faces, Art Lefluer, John Saxon and his Sargeant, and the briefest cameo of Martin Kove, which made no sense at all. The story kept jumping, and we kept asking "Wait, what happened? Now they are together?" Decent make-up, but not very werewolf looking. Of all the werewolf movies we've watched lately, this is not one I would recommend, unless you are a compelled to watch all things werewolf.
very well written and acted, but SFX are limp
The films approach is light hearted with some tongue in cheek nods to the X-files conspiracy theorists. It's not an SF gore fest, in fact they go out of their way to avoid the gore we've come to expect with such a sub-genre.
The writing is excellent in places and overall you engage with the protagonists- watching Tim & John is really entertaining (in a good way). I think with lesser leads this would have sunk without a trace.
It only seems to drag with the antagonists are on screen as the wolf SFX leave a lot to be desired. They throw in some matrix style fight scenes, but they aren't amazing.
Watch it for Tim & John if nothing else- great scenes.

Pretty Funny
I thought this movie was kind of hilarious at points! I mean, they pay half of a homage to the original Wolf Man movie from 1941...Half a homage. Hilarious. It's disjointed and the dialogue isn't great, but it's a bit over dramatic and that makes it Funny! There's numerous references to films that came before and cliche film tropes, complete with a potential Elvis siting!
Utter rubbish
I am not one to often leave comments for films but if you are toying with the idea to sit through this god awful movie, my advice is don't. The acting is so poor and laughable,the characters are very 2 dimensional. The "matrix" style fight scenes are a severely poor rip off from the aforementioned. When it comes to the make up effects I could of done a better job the actors looked like hairless pooches with rather large ears. The plot was an absolute farce with as much depth as a kiddies paddling pool. If you want to waste an hour and half of your life then go ahead watch this movie but if you value every minute of your life avoid like the plague.I like to think I watched this so you the reader doesn't have to. I don't know if there is another version of this movie but the people giving it descent reviews almost certainly could not have watched the same movie as I did.
Did you know
- GoofsAbout five minutes in in the middle of the battle ejected empty shell casings are shown landing on the floor. The problem is that they are actually full cartridges with the bullets and powder intact. That's not going to happen.
