Critic Reviews of "Wolves (2016)"
Christian Science MonitorMarch 03, 2017It's all terribly cliché-ridden and predictable, and the best I can say for it is that Shannon and Gugino do their best to convince us otherwise.
RogerEbert.comMarch 03, 2017Freundlich clearly likes to dig in deep with this kind of character material, and here it pays off in ways it really hasn't in some of his previous feature work.
Los Angeles TimesMarch 02, 2017A curious if unsuccessful cross-breeding of gritty domestic drama with conventional coming-of-age sports crowd-rouser.
NPRMarch 02, 2017A modestly pleasing, unsurprising indie about a family undone by anger issues.
New York TimesMarch 02, 2017It's as if Bart Freundlich, who wrote and directed, loses confidence in the performances and decides he'd better throw in every cliché in the genre.
Cinemalogue.comJuly 07, 2017On the basketball court, this gritty drama has some scoring ability. But off the court, it's an unconvincing mess of clichés.
MovieFreak.comMarch 24, 2017It's Shannon who lights up the screen, and without him it's hard to imagine this effort would be worth talking about.
MetroMarch 10, 2017The overly-contrived basketball game finale is classic Freundlich (which is to say eye-rolling), but there are times even he, not just his excellent actors, gets things right.
ReelTalk Movie ReviewsMarch 05, 2017While 'Wolves' boasts exciting basketball scenes plus excellent performances, it's also too predictable and contains a very strange ending.
Slant MagazineMarch 04, 2017Bart Freundlich alternates somewhat arbitrarily between his various plots, leaving a lot of loose ends in the process.
Common Sense MediaMarch 03, 2017While the performances are strong in this coming-of-age drama, it suffers from being too familiar and predictable, with wobbly, hand-held camerawork continually breaking the storytelling's spell.
