REVIEW SUMMARY
Wolfs is one of the most recommendable films of the year. Though it doesn’t reinvent the wheel in the action-comedy genre, it stands out for the undeniable chemistry between George Clooney and Brad Pitt, who elevate a generic yet incredibly entertaining script. Jon Watts keeps the pacing agile and fun, capitalizing on the never-ending banter between the protagonists to offer moments of sarcastic, ironic enjoyment. Austin Abrams also deserves recognition as a pleasant surprise, perfectly balancing naivety and comedy. Ultimately, it’s a light, accessible movie for all audiences.
