Movie Reviews
“The filmmaker exerts such strong stylistic control over the material that she miraculously manages to make it work. ‘Wolf’ certainly won’t be for all tastes, but adventurous filmgoers will find much to appreciate” Frank Scheck: The Hollywood Reporter
“[It] doesn’t quite make the impact its complex themes and artsy cinematography seem to promise (…) What holds it together, is a performance from MacKay that is both restrained and fully committed (…) Rating: ?? (out of 5)” Kat Halstead: Common Sense Media
