The Pack in 150 Words or Less

.

I liked the look of the monsters, and there are some really nicely done visuals in the last half an hour - all having to do with, yup, the monsters - but with opening and closing credits this thing is what, seventy-five minutes long? And yet somehow it still feels long. We're never given any reason to care about our main character - she's angry and sullen and then she's a victim, the end - and everybody else in the movie is an asshole. Yolande Moreau has some fun being the nasty queen of the muck-beasts but like everything it lacks focus. I don't want things spelled out for me but you've got to give me something for suffering through all this viciousness.
