"Wolf War"

1. Surviving a plane crash, surviving in the wilderness, and chasing predators, no matter which of the above three elements, as long as it is shot well, it can be a watchable commercial film. However, "Wolf War" has exclusively made three golden elements but turned into a moderate work.

2. The film doesn't do a good job of storytelling, and doesn't take full advantage of the elements that are available in the story. In fact, the subject matter and story of this film could have been made more intense and exciting.

3. The wolf in this film is huge, fierce and bloodthirsty, but it is not depicted positively, and there are almost no real close-ups. This has both advantages and disadvantages, the advantage being that it maintains the mystery, and the disadvantage is that it reduces the irritation. In fact, as far as I am concerned, I still hope to see the wolves attack with great momentum, but unfortunately there are almost no scenes like this in the film. The wolf uses a back-and-forth tactic, resulting in a less enjoyable look.

4. The two bridges impressed me deeply. One is the pair of green wolf eyes in the dark, and the other is the howling of wolves after throwing waves. Although there is no wolf in these two scenes, the degree of fright is much higher than the scene in which the wolf bites directly. Really chilling.

5. The title of "Wolf War" is really not good. war? Not even a small battle, okay? Not to mention that these four words have such a cheap taste of bad films.

The Grey quotes

  • Ottway: [writing his suicide letter] There's not a second that goes by when I'm not thinking of you in some way. I want to see your face. Feel your hands in mine. Feel you against me. But I know that will never be. You left me, and I can't get you back... I move like I imagine the damned do, cursed. I feel like it's only a matter of time... I don't know why I'm writing this, I don't know what can come of it. I know I can't get you back. I don't know why this has happened to us. I feel like it's me. Bad luck. Poison. I've stopped doing this world any real good.

  • Ottway: Do something. Do something. You phony prick fraudulent motherfucker. Do something! Come on! Prove it! Fuck faith! Earn it! Show me something real! I need it now. Not later. Now! Show me and I'll believe in you until the day I die. I swear. I'm calling on you. I'm calling on you!
