I’m not doubting that “Apple is done with wide theatrical releases for all of its movies,” which Jeff Sneider reported on 8.8.24. But I am doubting that Jon Watts’ Wolfs (9.20) is a movie of any lasting substance. People can sense or smell this right now.
It’s clearly a movie that dribbles more than shoots…it’s a droll comedic wank, a crime caper thing, and this is one reason, at least, why Apple has decided to abandon plans for a wide release and just briefly open it in theatres before going to streaming. Because nobody out there cares or will care. The George Clooney-Brad Pitt pairing is seen as an agreeable thing but far from vital. A likable shrugger.
