I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The forest rangers Julie Clayton (Mädchen Amick) and her boyfriend Don Powell (Richard Joseph Paul) find several grizzly-bear slaughtered in the forest. They report to their superior and he comes with the FBI Agent Eric Ashton (Jim Beaver) and his partner and other rangers. They team-up and go to the wilderness by helicopter to seek out the poacher. However, the man kills the rangers and the FBI agent and Julie is seriously wounded. She miraculously survives and learns that her beloved Don was murdered. Julie is deeply affected but when she meets the alcoholic police detective Nick Rollins (Graham Greene), he motivates her to live with hate planning revenge. Meanwhile the FBI decides to use Julie as bait to catch the poacher Hanaghan (Adrian Pasdar). But Hanaghan has developed a weird attraction for Julie. "Wounded" is an original thriller with a good story. Developed in slow pace, this film builds the tension between Julie and Hanaghan step by step. The climax is only in the very end, but the characters in the beginning are poorly developed. Mädchen Amick has goof performance. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Fúria Animal" ("Animal Fury")

I loved this film, it was so refreshing to see a beautiful talented actress leading an action film that wasn't built on typical clichéd Hollywood ideas that the rest of the world are sick to death of. I don't think the so called Rambo moment was all that 'impossible' whats wrong with a girl putting on a bit of camouflage paint before she goes into battle? It may have been a bit too slow for some people but I thought that added to the atmosphere. The film had suspense, atmosphere believable characters and intelligence but did not really make it to DVD worldwide where so many brainless Hollywood action films did. I am fed up of watching action films with no substance (we are not all simple minded teenage boys). Somebody please release this on DVD in the UK, and please make more films like this. Probably one of the best female led action films ever.

This is a fairly good movie that doesn't try to overwhelm the viewers with non-stop action, chase scenes and loud, hysterical goings on. However, I do feel that the movie would have been better with a little more action and sharper dialog. For much of the time, the dialog was spoken so softly that I had to keep turning up the volume on my TV just to be able to hear what the characters were saying. The finale, where the protagonist and antagonist meet to resolve the issue is just as low key as the rest of the movie.

Forget about Charles Bronson and Deathwish, this is a film with at least a couple of more levels in the sweet, cold sensation of revenge. This film takes the old saying of: `Revenge is a dish best served cool' and turns it into a very good film. In contrast from the `Deathwish' movies which can be very one-dimensional in its revenge-seeking, this one really makes one understand what Mädchen Amick must feel like. This pleasant but scary journey takes us from the innocent peace-loving girl that she was all the way to the killing machine she becomes in a very deep and colorful way. And it doesn't exactly hurt that her sidekick is, the always great, Graham Greene!If you're looking for an action-packed movie with a lot of cool camera shots (a la N.Y.P.D Blue) this one is not for you. But if you're looking for a high suspense thriller on an emotional level with a lot of great lines and character development this one will be right up your alley!
