Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com While wolf attacks are typically metaphorical, sometimes they are all too literal. In Out Come the Wolves, that’s precisely the case Rated: 3/4 Sep 9, 2024 Full Review Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com The skimpy structure leaves little to feast on; it’s a bit too gamey for its own good. Rated: 2/4 Sep 2, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Low-budget Canadian thriller about a hunting trip that goes awry. Rated: C Jan 10, 2025 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Out Come the Wolves takes too long to get to the horror part of the story, by wasting time on a love-triangle drama with annoying characters. The wolf attacks and action scenes are very unrealistic in this substandard film. Jan 7, 2025 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a progressively underwhelming endeavor that fares best within its quiet, low-key opening stretch... Rated: 1/4 Dec 4, 2024 Full Review Erik Childress Movie Madness Podcast Basically a mash-up of The Edge and the director’s own Backcountry only instead of a bear its wolves and we hope none of the men makes it back to civilization. Rated: 1.5/4 Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Claudio C Out Come the Wolves (2024) Disappointing Movie 11,666 – 02 May 2025 Sophie (Missy Peregrym) welcomes her childhood and best friend Kyle (Joris Jarsky) in her isolated cabin to spend the weekend with her fiancé Nolan (Damon Runyan) in a hunting party. Kyle’s girlfriend Leah had to work and Kyle arrives alone. He teaches Nolan, who is an editor writing about hunting, how to use bow and arrow and a rifle to hunt. Kyle demonstrates feelings for Sophie and confesses that he broke up with Leah. During the night, there is tension between Nolan and the jealous Kyle since they have drunk, and Kyle had one night stand with Sophie when they were teenagers. Sophie is an eminent hunter, but she does not like the sport anymore and has become vegetarian. Therefore, she stays in the cabin while Kyle and Nolan go hunting in his motorcycle. When Kyle hits a deer, he attracts a pack of wolves and one of them attacks Nolan. Instead of defending and bringing Nolan to the cabin, the panicked Kyle leaves him bleeding in the forest. When he arrives at the cabin, Sophie discusses with him and rides her motorcycle to rescue Nolan. But the task is difficult and dangerous since there is a pack of wolves in the wilderness. “Out Come the Wolves” (2024) is a disappointing Canadian American movie by Adam MacDonald. The expectation of a werewolf movie is frustrated by a pointless drama. Missy Peregrym, the Maggie Bell from FBI, is a good actress and performs a nice job with Joris Jarsky and Damon Runyan. But the plot shows Kyle as a skilled hunter that panics when he sees a wolf attacking his friend. What is the point of this film? My vote is five. Title (Brazil): “Out Come the Wolves” My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/03/25 Full Review Shelby I everyone in this movie is an idiot. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/09/25 Full Review Sarfaraz A Adam MacDonald co-wrote and directed this Canadian thriller. Missy Peregrym plays the lead role. The plot revolves around three middle-aged friends: Sophie and her boyfriend, a writer named Nolan, and her closest friend Kyle, whom she considers a brother. However, Sophie's boyfriend, Nolan, continues to suspect Kyle's relations with Sophie. When Nolan and Kyle go deer hunting in the woods, they are surprised to be attacked by a pack of wolves, one of whom attacks Nolan, causing Kyle to run in panic before wondering to mercy-kill Nolan to relieve his misery. When he gets home, Sophia confronts him for abandoning Nolan, and she grabs her bow to go and save Nolan. The most of the film is spent developing the characters. Kyle feels Nolan is not made for Sophie, while Nolan believes Kyle is not Sophie's best friend and still has feelings for her. It is only after an hour that the movie delves into wolf action. Kyle and Sophie are first shown to be adept at target shooting, but when attacked with a pack of wolves, they appear to be better at tossing knives to defend themselves than shooting bows or rifles. Perhaps they are better at shooting non-predatory animals than predatory ones. Because of the dread of predatory creatures charging at you after seeing you or hearing your voice, as opposed to non-predatory animals fleeing for their life upon hearing human sounds. It's stylish movie with some vicious wolf attacks, but it doesn't salvage the film's one-hour opening, which is mostly chit-chat and practicing aiming. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review Craig B Out Come The Wolves had plenty of promise, but it was held back by poor dialogue and dodgy acting. It didn't help that the first 33 minutes was spent supposedly setting up the rest of the movie, but when the entire movie is 87 minutes, 33 minutes is way too much time. Even then, apart from providing some important background history between the 3 main characters, most of that time added little value to the story. Some pretty good and gory attack scenes. It seemed like a lost opportunity... and 87 minutes I will never get back. Not a movie I could recommend. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Richard T This is terrible in every way from beginning to end. Poorly written nonsense script. If you know anything about motorcycles or hunting it is even more pathetic. AS usual the pro critics gave it a rating of 71%. They are useless. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review Chris B If you're a fan of Backcountry to you will most likely enjoy this. However, I found it clunky and predictable. It's also one of those where the characters are so unlikeable, the two males especially, I had no investment into whether they survived or not.
