Alpha and Omega (2010)

Good concept, poorly executed.

Absolutely the worst movie.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Blend is just an understatement to describe this movie.Let's start with the story,It's as mundane and uninspired as any movie could ever be.You could sense the ending just by reading the synopsis only.---NEGATIVES--- The characters are atrocious!You got the main character who is just your standard blend lazy character and you got his girlfriend who is like just a standard courageous girl that you've seen like a million times before.Plus,she's really out of the main character's league.Their relationship is as predictable as it can get.The supporting cast are also really annoying!You got a duck and a goose who are not funny at all!Soundtrack was forgettable,There were a few musical numbers in this movie.I remember the ending showed the wolves singing and by that time I don't really care anymore.---POSITIVES---Well,I must point out the positive from this movie.At least the voice acting was bearable with an exception of a few characters.The animation was okay,nothing special though.Sadly that's all the positives that I can think of.---VERDICT--- This movie is awful,I fell asleep while watching this movie.Everything in this movie is so mediocre that it made me angry. I saw the movie in theaters and in 3D(Yes 3D was garbage) back in September 2010 and I really regret it.I could've watched Legend of the Guardians the Owls of Ga'hoole instead of this trash of a movie.I was 12 when I saw this movie and even then I knew it was bad.That's a bad sign!But if you enjoy this movie,good for you!Maybe you could enjoy the movie more than I do.

OK, here is my review to Alpha and Omega, one of my favorite movies. The first time I saw the trailer to this, I wanted to see this, and I;m glad I did. It was a really enjoyable movie. I liked the animation, I loved the actors, I loved the score to the movie, and even though the storyline was predictable, I like the storyline.First off, the storyline... now I'm not picky about the storyline, as long as it is good, and this had a good storyline. A bit predictable but overall a good story. The main Omega wolf, Humphrey is a great representation of a normal guy who has a crush on the pretty girl, who happens to be Kate, the main Alpha wolf in the movie. Kate and Humphrey is my favorite couple when it comes to movies. They are perfect for each other and even though this movie left a lot of plot holes, the entire movie was great. Who cares f this doesn't show what an actually pack looks like. The directors did a good job making this movie, so cut them so slack, they may not had enough money to give us a Lion King movie or even a Rio movie, but who cares... they made a good movie and I'm happy with that.Second, the actors... I loved every one of them. Justin Long, one of my favorite actors, was the perfect actor for Humphrey. He made me love him even more and Justin is the kind of actor that can make any character he does, lovable, so a round of applause for him. Hayden Panettiere, one of my favorite actresses and the perfect voice for Kate. It matches her perfectly and she brought Kate to life in more ways than ever. Kate Higgins who covers for Kate in the sequel does a good job but she is no Hayden... Hayden brought Kate to life. The same goes for Ben Diskin who covers for Humphrey in the sequel, he does a good job and sound just like Justin, but his performance was at least close to Justin. Then we have the sweet beautiful Christina Ricci as the shy beautiful Lilly. This right here is an perfect example of finding the perfect actress to provide the voice of a female character. Even though Lilly did not have as much screen time as Kate, Ricci made Lilly a very lovable character. Then we got Danny Glover as Winston and the legendary Dennis Hopper in his final movie as Tony. We also have Vicki Lewis who you may know from Finding Nemo as Deb/Flo and from the movie, Godzilla with Mathew Broderick. Lewis provides the voice of Eve who gives us a new look at the term overprotective.Thirdly, the score is amazing and from a composer I never heard of until now, Chris Bacon.The music to this movie is outstanding and really adds to the emotions in this movie. My favorite is the Love Train track, in which Humphrey howls with Kate on a train... it's a beautiful howl and makes you want to love wolves. Any lover of animals will love this feature, especially wolf lovers like myself. If you love soundtracks, then listen to this, because the soundtrack is amazing.Fourth, the animation... could be better but then again, seen a whole lot worse than this so we shouldn't complain here. Every movie will have their flaws, and to me, this is one of this movie's flaws. The animation could have been better but then again, the storyline could be better, too. The animators did a fantastic job on the main characters like Kate and Humphrey. Advice to the makers, You guys did an amazing job on this movie. You made an enjoyable movie and great choices on the cast. You also did a good job on the storyline. But the storyline needs working on, you left many questions unanswered like what happened to Humphrey's parents? Where is Garth's mother? How did Humphrey and Kate meet? Were they friends since birth or did they accidentally meet somewhere before the beginning? So, if you were to make another movie, make sure that the storyline improves a bit. But overall, great job and I really enjoyed your movie.Overall, I give this movie 10 out of 10 stars. Even though there are flaws in this movie and the storyline is a bit predictable, I really enjoyed this movie and liked the sequels. The sequels could be better but they could be so much worse. I highly suggest watching them if you enjoyed this movie. Any animated movie or animal lover should at least watch this movie. To me, it's worth it and a great movie for kids to watch but I suggest this movie to kids ages 8 or up. This movie has some themes that aren't appropriate for younger kids. If you feel your kids are comfortable for these themes, then they can watch it but I suggest only kids 8 or older to watch this.

When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I was sold on it basically because I am a fan of animated dog/wolf movies, and I thought this would be another one of those movies. And I was correct. The reason Alpha and Omega has a negative reputation amongst critics is because most critics would rather watch movies that aren't animated comedies. But, being a guy who is open-minded most of the time, I don't just judge movies based on what they are. And with that said, I loved this movie.There are a few things about it that are disappointing, but those things are very VERY minor when you consider how well the plot is executed. It's a very basic plot reminiscent of Homeward Bound crossed with Balto and Lady and the Tramp 2, but it's played out well and mostly avoids being just another CGI rehash movie. The humor is also well executed, too, as the movie relies on unintentional prat falls and tasteful innuendos and bathroom jokes that actually have context. But, where this movie really shines is the character development. Kate and Humphrey have fantastic charisma that is no different than the main characters of Lady and the Tramp 2 and The Lion King, and we really get to know a lot about these characters and feel for them as the movie goes on. My personal favorite character is Lilly. This character is a really sweet character who is at first shy, but gains confidence once she starts hanging with Garth, whom she instantly falls for. Not to mention the voice acting is very well done, especially from Justin Long and Christina Ricci.So, if there is anything out there that children should be watching, it's Alpha and Omega. Sadly, Alpha and Omega isn't as a popular name as something like Lion King, but as a movie, it sure has the audacity to be as good. I recommend this movie highly.

It's good and most of the people giving it bad reviews are stupid helicopter parents that are way over protective and people who like to expect something they have never ever seen before from a kid movie. There is like one curse word you probably won't notice(I didn't notice, but apparently after reading someone's bad review of the movie after I had watched it said that the main character said the D-word at one point, but I don't remember). Also if your mind is in the gutter you can take a little flirting and say it is a sexual reference, but its not. I liked it and watched it with my 8year old sister. I'm not going to tell you the plot, because I like to think whoever is reading this will watch the movie or learn the plot from another review. The main importance is it has these things! 1. Great plot 2. Romance between multiple characters 3. Developed Characters 4. Multiple settings 5. Good age appropriate humor 6. Great Action (as far as animal action can be, so no guns or explosions obviously.) 7. Shows a good conflict and character's struggle to solve the conflict. 8. Easy to sit down and enjoy. So I hope you will enjoy watching it and give it a good rating. You will enjoy it :D.
