The animation, coupled with a jarring use of 3D, makes for a visually unspectacular film that feels very similar to others that have come before it.October 22, 2010
The 8-12s will love it, but grown-ups may feel they've seen lots of it before (especially the caribou stampede, a shameless pinch from The Lion King.)September 17, 2010
It's an ugly, laughless 3-D cartoon about wolves that is so wussified and stupidified that it'll bore kids and make their adult minders wish they'd done something comparatively interesting, like cleaning the gutters in the rain.October 21, 2010
Here is a pleasant, undemanding animated family comedy - decent enough, but it feels like a reshuffling of dozens of films you've seen before.September 17, 2010
Has old-fashioned backgrounds that occasionally achieve a touch of grandeur, but that's about the best that can be said for it.September 17, 2010
Alpha and Omega, an unambitious 3-D animation about a couple of young wolves in love, isn't so much howlingly bad as it is howlingly boring.September 17, 2010
The 3D allows for bold, deep shots that swoop over cliffs and waterfalls, but can't distract from the wolves' clotted fur, which looks a decade behind the textures Pixar created for Toy Story 3.September 17, 2010
The story comes off as patchwork, with a climax cribbed from The Lion King and odd musical sequences that seem inspired by ahem, classic Mariah Carey. It's not quite the vision of love intended.November 20, 2010

Stumbles every time it attempts to rise above the perfunctory, with its tiresome comic-relief geese and bog-standard internecine rivalry in the wolf pack.September 17, 2010
An animated flick that doesn't leave much of an impression. It's even difficult to recall what happened once it's over because it's so slight and sluggish.October 21, 2010
There's nothing here that Disney hasn't done much better decades ago, and the script is a lame mixture of slapstick and sentiment.
