Review of Wolf Pack

Wolf Pack (2023)
4/10
Wolf Twilight Zone
20 February 2023
To think that MTV would fail so big at making a TV shown about Werewolves, when back in 2011 they made the very successful and well done Teen Wolf.

This show does have some good points.

  • Each new werewolf only seems to have one ability except when the pack comes together.


  • They're betting more in creating a mystery around the whole thing, instead of having a character that already has most of the answers. Even those more well informed, know very little in terms of facts, and more about the myths.


As for negative points...
  • The cast is mostly too green and it shows. So far I've found the characters Everett, Blake and Harlan to be painful to watch. These characters are too emotional about everything, and instead of dealing with their feelings and emotions they just keep it buried, which leads them to make mistake or dumb decision on a regular basis.


The only exceptions are Kristen, Garrett, Luna and Prisha. These are the only actors and actresses that show some constraint, that show more than one emotion, and are truly interesting.

  • The story has mistakes after mistakes, holes inside holes.


  • The story is too predictable when it comes to what the characters are going to do.


  • Some things you see happening and you just can't stop but see the absurdity in it all. Like, a fully turned werewolf enters into public places and no one sees or hears anything. No one questions what made that kind of damage. And the answers offered are made with zero reasoning behind it.


  • The hallucination scenes are becoming too recurring, to the point you already know you're watching an hallucination.


All in all the show could be doing very well, but it isn't because unlike with Teen Wolf they obviously didn't bet in the right actos this time around. Also the writing team is either too inexperienced or they think the people watching the show have such a low IQ, they can't see when something makes absolutely no sense or logic.

Only three episodes in and this show is already losing me as viewer.

Where Teen Wolf was intriguing, well written, well acted, well paced, and well balanced. Wolf Pack is none of those things.
