Pashley P This is possibly the worst movie I've seen in a long time. The background audio is very bad and the acting is below mediocre. Let's not get started on the visual effects. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/09/23 Full Review Everett S I'll be honest, This movie is way better than it has any right to be. I mean you would think a children's movie about werewolves would be bad and cringe. But they actually knocked it out of the park with this one. I thought the best part was that the plot doesn't even feel like its a nickelodeon movie. Its also good that they made you actually care for the struggles of the characters. Surprisingly good movie with a strong ending. In my opinion, go watch 9.5/10. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/13/23 Full Review kylen m the movie is good but Jordan Is A werewolf Hard core Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/23/23 Full Review Audience Member This one isn't too bad, it's a bit dull but a few of the gags do get me from time to time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Minha irmã adora, acha uma perfeição e incrível. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Good watch, probably won't watch again, but can recommend. This, a Nickelodeon production, is obviously targeting younger kids, but is a surprisingly watchable "teen angst over traumatic event" coming of age story with a really good preternatural twist to it. It does lend into "no one will believe me, boo hoo", but this movie has a subtle message of empowerment to kids, and (I think) women: the ladies out stage the guys easily throughout the entire movie. Victoria Justice is a proven entity in leading and carrying a movie, which she manages to do until she bumps into the older women would rightly steal the focus. Brooke Shields does a great "foreign lady that is either about to kiss or hit someone, but does neither" type of role here, and Brooke D'Orsay gave a confident and consistent enough performance that I honestly thought it was Eva Green essentially doing her character from "Dark Shadows". I think this is better for younger audiences, but good enough that an older audience can still appreciate it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
