Steve Mathie The basketball element of this game is the worst I have ever seen. It's so dumb. Shocks me. The little gym and the whole walking in to play while hurt . Come on. Wtf is this?

fiercecelt I was not certain as to what I was about to watch, but I am pleased with having done so. Why such a positive rating? I enjoyed not only the script, but the acting.Taylor John Smith is excellent as a young and budding actor. His facial expressions are extraordinary, projecting extreme joy to extreme hurt and angst. Of course, the end was predictable. I mean, how could it have ended any other way?The family challenges, obstacles and dynamics are far more common in America today than some might want or hope to believe. In fact, I surmise that similar family "quakes" have occurred in every generation and will continue well into the future.

BasicLogic I could never understand how a parent would do harm to his own child to pay for his gambling debts. I've read in Chinese history that the adult parents were so hungry during the famine, so they exchanged their children with each other or one another to eat them, they could not eat their own children so they exchange theirs with others' kids to make them easier to kill. When a new lion got rid of the old dominant lion and became the leader, he usually would try every possible way and opportunity to kill the pubs not from him. (*Partially spoiler)In this film, we encountered a father who purposely hurt his son, a promising high school basketball star, and betting his son's team to lose in order to win a lot of money to pay for his gambling debts. This is the first time I witnessed such lowest parenthood in a movie making it quite memorable. There's one other thing that bother me a lot from this film: Almost all the white boys got black girl friends which again inevitably made me think that movie industry in America purposely try their best to brain wash the viewers to promote the 'Melting Pot' crap.

soundinfinite-791-948065 The title: Wolves. 1. The name of a high school basketball team with a star player up for college recruitment. 2. Predators that viciously exploit human addictions. 3. Pseudo Protectors that devour our hopes and dreams.There are many wolves in this film, feeding in subtle and not so subtle ways.It's a film that shows us how easily our human weaknesses can destroy all that we love. Yet, even when redemption is possible, we also see how some are beyond redemption. Such is the role of Michael Shannon as the father- who is extremely good at playing the wolf in sheep's clothing.The plot has some cliché moments and the ending is wrapped up far too neatly for my liking however overall it's a very good film.Considering what's out there in theatres at the moment, Wolves is top on my watch list.
