WOLFS

A dead body is found in a hotel room, what do you do? You call a cleaner to clean it up discretely. The only problem is 2 cleaners arrive to the same job, unaware of the other. This is the premise for WOLFS which stars buddies George Clooney & Brad Pitt. Clooney plays the older, more wise character who's been in the game a long time; while Pitt is the thorn in his side who has his own, unique method of handling these types of situations. Throughout, the duo are constantly contradicting each other like an old married couple. The friends obviously have an affinity for each other and it comes across on screen. They're having a lot of fun with this and so is the audience (not to mention it's a pretty funny script too). The film was really great for about half of its runtime but then they introduced a third character (Austin Abrams) to this tale that changed the vibe going forward. It wasn't as funny and any steam it had built up before then quickly dissipated. Without spoiling the movie, I think if the story would have stayed on the path it was, it would have turned out even better but this surpassed my expectations and was a fun ride. 7.5/10
