The Wolf and the Lion Ratings & Reviews

Nice if you have kids without any sense of logic, and you like animals
DallasFilmNow.com
Peter Martin
Heartfelt empathy for the plight of abused animals outweighs the flimsy, sometimes silly plot machinations. Molly Kunz and Graham Greene make for an appealing pair of heroes.
Spectrum Culture
Joel Copling
With a dull thud, the flat human story collides with the thin one about the cute animals.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
Extremely vapid on every level, The Wolf and the Lion is a poorly made drama that irresponsibly advocates for untrained people to raise large wild animals, such as a wolf and a lion, inside their homes.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Lael Loewenstein
The cinematography is quite good -- the animal photography is excellent. I do not think it had much of a script at all.

A movie about completely adorable animals - and for many people that is all they need to be entertained.
Los Angeles Times
Kimber Myers
Watching 100 minutes of cute animals on your phone is preferable to sitting through the laughably bad Wolf and the Lion.
OurQuadCities / WHBF-TV (Illinois)
Linda Cook
It's a gentle story with pretty visuals and a theme about kindness and understanding animals.
Phoenix Film Festival
Jeff Mitchell
The animals roar, but the script howls. Still, I appreciate the filmmakers' innovative work with the real-life wolf and lion.
Less Hat, Moorhead
M.V. Moorhead
The dialogue sometimes sounds like the product of Google Translate. But hey, you get to see a baby lion and baby wolf tussle and romp and smooch. Maybe that's enough for you; for long stretches of this movie, it was enough for me.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Courtney Lanning
What the movie lacks in logic, it makes up for in wonderful landscape shots of Canadian forests and lakes, as well as adorable footage of real wolf pups and lion cubs. So it's hard to really come down too hard on The Wolf and the Lion.
The Spool
Lisa Laman
The best parts of The Wolf and the Lion are when the titular creatures are just goofing off in someones backyard...Unfortunately, theyre just a small part of the feature, which tends to emphasize tears over cuteness.
CultureMap
Alex Bentley
If the aim of The Wolf and the Lion was to be inspirational, it fails miserably. The filmmakers take too many shortcuts and dont pay enough attention to their characters to warrant the audience caring about anything that happens in the film.
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
The Wolf and the Lion is a lot like the internet: about half aww-inspiring scenes of irresistibly cute animals and the other half dumb, boring human beings.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
What could have been a cute nature documentary turns into a sappy animal rescue tale in which the characters on four feet are much more compelling than their two-footed counterparts.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
Rob Thomas
If only the characters in the movie who dont have furry paws were more compelling.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
On the surface, The Wolf and the Lion provides the cuteness it mainly exists to provide, but if one gives the movie even half a thought, it feels like an insincere deception.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
The Wolf and the Lion is deeply sweet, utterly predictable, and may well send a few unintentionally mixed messages about human relationships with large predators.
The Inlander (Spokane, WA)
Josh Bell
Husband-and-wife filmmaking team Gilles and Prune de Maistre seem to have put more thought into crafting their animal team-up than they did into character development or coherent plotting.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
It's a hopelessly old-fashioned picture designed to show off two very beautiful animals. Everything else is just dull filler.
