With so many bad ratings here, i thought that the movie is really that bad. but for me its good, not that really good but its worth watching if you want to kill time (like me). maybe because im not that into this kind of movie (like, twilight) but i found this movie quite good.

Liv Tyler. Love her. This movie is good. It's a good story. I kept me interested. I could see a sequel on this one. I think some people want a lot of action with no story. I like a good story.

I don't really get all the 'for this genre' reviews. Maybe its 2-3 people spamming. Its not a dam zombie movie or some such. Good--The acting was extremely well done. The direction stayed on track. There were no hanging loose ends, there was closure to the ending. Yes, the viewer may not get what they want (for a change, thank god). In any event, I personally found the movie reasonably original. Bad--The wildling and humans turn out to be the same species, 'they' sacrificed plot believability in order to inject some empathetic drama. The primary antagonist does not add up, and this character gets typical Hollywood closure.

Positives: "Wildling" is an original, refreshing take on werewolf lore. Bel Powley is excellent as the main character, supported by believable performances from the rest of the cast. The cinematography is good and the story develops at a reasonable pace. Negatives: I felt that the final quarter of the film succumbed to slash/horror tropes that detracted from the intelligence of the rest of the film. A more subtle or poignant ending would have made this film memorable, maybe even achieving cult status. It saddens me that the screenwriter/director failed at the final hurdle. Verdict: Definitely worth a watch, if only to revel in Bel Powley's amazing eyes.

I really liked this one. The cast did a great job, the story was intact and the ending was just so beautiful. As a side note all the scenes in the forest were just crazy good and the atmosphere of the environment really got through to me. This movie had an important message about respecting the predators of the wild and I can relate to that. Some details could have been told more precisely, but overall the pacing was good and I felt this movie was long enough. So that's 8/10 and let us let the wildlings live free.

Interesting, if somewhat predictable, film about a young girl found locked in the attic of her house. She is saved by Liv Tyler, but is she really the one who needs saving, or should all the other characters run for the hills? Great acting all round make this very thin plot work. Beautiful camera work and lighting also add to the illusion that this is a big budget movie (It isn't. It's a cheap little indie pic). Def worth a watch to see the lead actress (Bel Powley) act everyone else off the screen.

Anna (Bel Powley) grows up locked up in a room by her daddy (Brad Dourif). After daddy attempts to pull a Budd Dwyer, Anna winds up in the custody of Officer Ellen Cooper (Liv Tyler) in a small upstate NY town. Anna fears the Wildling, a creature with sharp teeth, claws, covered in hair and eats children. Things are not hard to deduce early as Anna has acute hearing, loathes shoes, and eats only meat. The film grabs your interest from the start. However the grip slips as the film moves beyond the point of no return. I would have liked to have seen her first response to television. She watches a computer like she had been around them her whole life. They needed a rewrite on that scene. Guide: F-word, sex, nudity?

A movie needs a hook. It needs an element to it that keeps you intrigued and needing to know what's going to happen next. 'Wildling' has it for a little while, but then loses it in the second half of the film. In fact it starts out with a very intriguing scenario. A quite bizarre and seemingly twisted one in which you really do need to know what's coming next. Then about halfway through the films puts all its cards on the table and what plays out from then on was simply not interesting enough to sustain the story. It's a great looking film there can be no question about that. A surprising amount of work has gone into making every shot in the film exquisite to look at. It's also very well edited and put together. I would happily put a big-budget feature in the hands of writer/director Fritz Böhm. The acting was also pretty good for the most part. There are some quite strong actors/actresses among the cast. I did have a lot of trouble buying Liv Tyler as a policewoman though I have to say. Her voice was far too soft for the role and her personality didn't convince me either. There's just enough in 'Wildling' to keep it from becoming completely unwatchable, but it's certainly not a film that will stick with me in any way I suspect.
