What’s Good: Brad Pitt and George Clooney’s on-screen charisma remains unmatched, carrying the entire film.
What’s Bad: The script tries too hard to emulate Tarantino or Shane Black, but falls flat, making the film feel forced rather than effortlessly cool.
Loo Break: The second act drags, losing momentum and stakes, making it easy to zone out.
Watch or Not?: If you’re a die-hard fan of Pitt or Clooney, it’s worth a watch. Otherwise, it’s skippable.

Wolfs Trailer

Jon Watts, known for his work on the Spider-Man trilogy, returns with Wolfs , aWolf feels like a step back for the director, lacking the flair and punch his previous films delivered.

Script Analysis

Wolf comes across as a polished but ultimately unnecessary addition to the crime genre. While the premise of two fixers working together without killing each other sounds intriguing,

it fails to maintain suspense or deliver the comedy it promises. The film feels like it’s trying too hard to be cool, and ends up missing the mark.

The characters, though portrayed by seasoned actors, lack the depth required to keep the audience engaged. The result is a film that feels like it’s going nowhere, and the plot meanders after the first act.

Star Performances

George Clooney and Brad Pitt are the only reasons this movie remains watchable. Their undeniable chemistry and charm from the Ocean’s franchise carry through, elevating otherwise lackluster dialogue.

While Clooney brings his A-game, Pitt seems to coast on the persona he’s built over the years—a tamer, laid-back version of Tyler Durden.

Surprisingly, Austin Abrams steals the show. His performance outshines both veterans, and his energy is infectious, even though the script doesn’t always match his level of enthusiasm.
