Critics Consensus

Not exactly the alpha of the pack, what Coyotes lacks in bark it makes up for in its unique blend of comedic thrills.

These coyotes, which don't look remotely real at all, undermine everything else that's going on in the movie. Go to Full Review

It’s a film that feels like a missed opportunity more than a disaster, a survival thriller that never quite finds its pulse. Go to Full Review

Colin Minihan knows how to make a gnarly horror film. Go to Full Review

3/5
There are some pleasantly humorous performances in Coyotes. Long’s dry line delivery is very effective during the funny moments, and Allen is a riot to watch. Go to Full Review

C-
Despite two very committed performances from Long and Bosworth and some entertaining gore, Coyotes mostly falls flat due to a lack of urgency and tension, mild giggles, and not enough focus on its social commentary. Go to Full Review

6/10
When there are people to root against, Coyotes is a blast. Once it turns into a redemption quest for a Hollywood Hills dad, it drags. Go to Full Review

Nov 8 I went into this movie with low expectations. It was actually amazing. Great action with appropriate humor. It was just a fun movie to watch. I was delightfully surprised with this movie. I have to give it 5 stars. It was that much of an enjoyable watch. See more Oct 11 This is one of those films that isn’t meant to be taken seriously, at all. It’s a little wonky & flawed but that’s obvious from the very start. I’m a Justin Long fan so I’ll always support him but the direction of this felt a bit all over the place. See more Oct 5 Fun movie. A bit repetitive. Great performances from everyone. See more Oct 4 Fun movie. Justin Long is hilarious. See more Oct 4 Fun movie! Definitely worth a watch and it's got Good Actors! See more Oct 3 Weird looking special effects (kinda looks like AI) and not a very good script, but the cast did their best. Sorry but coyotes are actually less scary and convincing threats than the birds from....that movie about the birds attacking? You know the one. See more Read all reviews
