Skinwalkers (2007)

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.

I just saw the opening sequence. It involves a shootout in a small town between two groups of werewolves. And I have to say, it was so bad, it made me laugh. It was like a town of Mr. Magoo's trying to hit the broad side of a barn. The fight begins when the bad guy and a good-guy, who also happens to be a little-old-lady, unload unnecessarily huge handguns a mere 10 feet from each other. They shoot a half dozen shots and only manage to graze each other. Then, a whole town worth of good guys pours out with handguns, high powered rifles, and machine guns. In an attempt to hit 4 bad guys who are basically standing in the middle of the street. Bullets fly, and even though the main bad guy is standing completely stationary behind a glass and wood door, a whole town can't hit him. The funniest part is when some lady in the back of a truck gets out a machine gun and empties it at the bad guys and manages to hit NOTHING! Worst shootout ever. Then I gave up on the movie.

This movie is boring. I thought it was going to be like Underworld with two fighting clans both trying to create a super monster. I wasted an hour and a half of my life watching this.The werewolf costumes don't look anything like a wolf. They just have sharp teeth and are hairier. And they don't talk, they just roar. I could tell my dad to stop shaving for a month, buy some fangs from the Halloween shop, and grunt like a gorilla, and he would look like the werewolves in this movie. I saw scarier things while watching Scooby Doo.The plot is nothing new, either. 2 packs of wolves. One wants to end the curse, one doesn't. They fight, and the good guys win. Waaaaaaaay too predictable. There is no twist in the story. No big secrets. No surprises that change everything. You could guess the whole movie after watching the beginning.The ending isn't anything spectacular. It doesn't go out with a big bang. Nothing happens to the boy. He doesn't turn into Superman and save everybody. He doesn't get any super-powers that everybody says he should have. He just... stays the same. You could feel that at the very end, the director probably said "Lets finish this. I need to go home." This movie is boring. The plot is boring. And the fight scenes are terrible. If you want a good movie that has monster against monster, go watch Underworld. It has a better plot.
