Director and screenwriter Jon Watts–who also directed three Tom Holland Spider-Man movies–brings George Clooney and Brad Pitt together in a twisty caper film. Amy Ryan (aka, Steve Martin’s psycho girlfriend in Only Murders in the Building), a District Attorney with an embarrassing problem, calls George Clooney–a fixer–for help. But Brad Pitt–also a fixer–shows up, too. Circumstances force Clooney and Pitt to work together…a lot a fun friction results.
Wolfs definitely has a Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid vibe. Clooney and Pitt have the same rare chemistry that Paul Newman and Robert Redford put on the screen. I liked Wolfs and I was delighted to learn that a sequel has already been Green Lighted. If you’re looking for a solid buddy movie, Wolfs delivers action and laughs. GRADE: B
I have a hard time getting past how pleased with themselves there two seem. Redford and Newman worked a lot harder for their success.
Patti, there was an OCEAN’S ELEVEN vibe in this movie.
“these two seem”
Patti, Clooney and Pitt seem to be enjoying themselves during this movie. The sequel should be on AppleTV+ this time next year.
