Werewolves (2024)

★★
Capsule Review

Werewolves is a relentlessly mediocre werewolf movie that has a neat concept but executes it with little flair. It's basically another disaster movie in which the main character must navigate a treacherous landscape to make it back to his family. I've seen a bunch of these. The year before, a supermoon turned all humans who were exposed to it into werewolves. Worldwide chaos ensued. A year later, the same event will happen again. A team of scientists is working frantically to develop a serum to make humans immune to the moon's effects. When the lab facility is compromised, Wesley Marshall (Frank Grillo) and Amy Chen (Katrina Law) are the only survivors. They make their way across a city infested with werewolves. Back home, Wesley's family is housed inside a fortified home, but the werewolves outside won't give up. This all sounds good, but there's little excitement and fewer scares. The special effects are effective, though.
