Fresh and Exciting

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

You know when, sometimes, a movie has - on paper - all that is needed to make a pretty good movie, but it just still isn't really good..? Like Pan, or John Carter, and lots of others. This is one of those times. This movie has action, guns, shooting, werewolves, blood, a couple of decent actors. But it still manages to be pretty boring.I'm no fan of werewolves, in fact, 'An American Werewolf in London' might be the only werewolf flick I've ever really enjoyed, but yeah, this one takes the cake. It's just bad. Boring. They try to have a little drama in here, you know: staring, "You've lied to me!" bu-hu, little kids crying, etc. The problem is just that I really couldn't care less about these characters. Like not. at. all.The best thing about the whole movie is that the technical part of the gunfights look pretty good, except for the missing kick-back, but that's on the actors.The make up is alright for the most part, but they look more like hairy alien vampires than werewolves. I like that their arms are really think, but I love muscles so.Yeah, skip this one.

I'm not a big fan of long winded reviews as I generally want to know a movie's basic plot and if it's worth a 5h1t to watch, so here goes.I'm a big werewolf movie fan. I saw this thing advertised on line so I gave it a whirl. From the moment it kicks off it feels cheap to the eye. The dialogue is as wooden as Pinocchio's middle leg. The acting is almost a literary game of chess in which a chiefly little known cast fight to convince the viewer against a ceaseless tide of diabolical scripture and a plot that seems to have been written by a 7 year old for his 'write a scary story' homework assignment. It is typically American action in the sense that throughout the movie the are thousands of rounds of ammunition fired off left, right and center with targets only suffering hits as and when the director thought it was about time to move on to another scene and needed an excuse to do so. If you want a werewolf film that the kids can watch without wetting the bed then this is it. The action is as convincing as the Power Rangers (as is the acting), and given that there are people attacked by werekittens (because they do look like cats rather than wolves) there isn't so much as a nose-bleed in sight. I've given it three stars though... Why's that? Because the actors turned up (one star) there is a smattering of nickelodeon grade action in it (two stars) and, although paper thin, there is a trace of a discernible plot somewhere.Wrap up: Like a good scary werewolf movie? Go watch WER or Bad Moon. This is watered down junk.

simply one of the worst were-wolfs movies of all times. with all the bad things in it, easier to just point the good. let's see: story...well that was awful, idiotic display of lack of inspiration, actor performance...some of the worst and more idiotic reactions, like they were just arrived in the set and they never had read the script and went with the flow. the skin-walkers costumes...well i saw 2 bucks Halloween costumes better and more real. the end is like the entire movie...just a big FSSSSSSSSS. I tried to see the movie in a Saturday morning on DVD when was nothing better on TV and found it in my room mate desk. he warned me about how bad is it and that he didn't had the patience to watch it all but i thought i was more smart...and now i smart...my head , my stomach and my eyes. Do yourself a favor...be smart...leave this away.

Imagine TWILIGHT without the vampires and romance and you'll have some idea of the look and style of SKINWALKERS, a film in which a mother and son are pursued by a pack of violent werewolves. Unfortunately you can tell that this is going to be a bad film from the outset, with cheap-looking filming, dodgy red filters to create a "blood moon", and some singularly ill-defined characters.It's one of those films where there's nobody to like or care about, and where there's no consistency in tone or character action. Sure, it's a movie that's packed full of violent action, but the action is all so clichéd. There's a predictable shoot-out, a predictable werewolf fight at the climax, and for the rest of the time there are just minor characters being bumped off on either side. It pains me to say that the cheap-looking practical effects were done by Stan Winston Studios, although at least there are no dodgy transformations here. I liked one scene - the big twist in that travelling truck - but that's it.The acting barely passes muster either. Rhona Mitra comes across as an inexperienced actress, and she would do a much better job a couple of years later in DOOMSDAY. Jason Behr, the pretty boy bad guy, is almost entirely lacking in menace. The best of the group is the reliable Elias Koteas, a guy you can always depend on to give a solid performance, and I also spotted Kim Coates (a B-movie favourite) further down the cast list as a regular henchman. But this is forgettable popcorn nonsense as a whole.
