Not Your Average Buddies

George Clooney and Brad Pitt's latest collaboration, Wolfs, brings together two of the most talented actors of the past 30 years for a buddy comedy caper that is more about the chemistry between its leads than the crime thriller plot. The film's slow pace allows for a fun and welcome sense of humor to shine through, and while it may not be the most engaging film, it's an enjoyable time spent with two beloved stars. The story follows two professional fixers, played by Clooney and Pitt, who are forced to team up to clean up a mess after a client's illegal activities are exposed. As they navigate their way through the night, they discover that they have more in common than they thought, and their banter becomes increasingly playful and open. While the plot is underbaked and the action sequences lack excitement, the true star of the show is the chemistry between Clooney and Pitt. Their infectious movie-star energy is evident throughout, and their scenes together are both funny and touching. Austin Abrams' supporting performance also adds a new dimension to the film, bringing a youthful energy and humor to the role. Director Jon Watts' steady and observant style brings a slick aesthetic to the film, but it also feels a bit too polished at times. The cinematography by Larkin Seiple is sharp, and the score is catchy, but the pacing of the film is slow and meandering. In the end, Wolfs is a film that works better as a hang-out movie than a crime thriller. While it may not be the most exciting film, it's an enjoyable time spent with two talented actors who have a natural chemistry that is undeniable.
