Not only do they have to find a way out, but they  have landed in the territory of burly, tough wolves. Liam Neeson stars as the leader of the pack, the human pack.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Verdict: <\/strong>Watch it. What we say we believe in the comfort of our lives changes drasitcally when facing death. Men wrestle with wolves, but metaphorically, they\u2019re wrestling with mortality, love, and God. Liam Nesson is fantastic. Some of the scenes are a bit unbelievable. The special effects are minimal, but director Joe Carnahan uses them to good effect.
