Show more >> Wolfs attempts to offer a thrilling ride through the gritty underbelly of New York, but it sometimes stumbles along the way. The premise of two rival fixers teaming up is certainly intriguing, yet the execution feels uneven at times. The performances are solid, but I found myself craving deeper character development. The film has its moments of brilliance, particularly in its dialogue, but it also drags in parts that could have benefited from tighter pacing. The tone fluctuates between dark humour and serious drama, which can be jarring. While Wolfs is entertaining, it may not leave a lasting impression. If you enjoy character-driven crime dramas, it’s worth a watch, but don’t expect a masterpiece. Show less
