646f9e108c A werewolf virus is unleashed upon New York, and Major Hoffman looks for a cure while Lt. General Monning wants to establish a new canine army.
Watch this if....you don't mind terrible acting and awful special effects for a couple hours. Even for a Syfy original, this movie is bad.<br/><br/>Acting/Casting: 2.5* - There is some noticeable B-movie actors for the most part giving noticeably bad performances. If you can distance Dennis Haybert from the All-State Insurance commercials he does a serviceable job, but that was beyond difficult for me. Craig Sheffer is rundown and Ariana Richards should have stopped at Jurassic Park years ago.<br/><br/>Directing/Cinematography/Technical: 2* - Almost equally as bad is the directing and special effects. I realize this is on a strict budget, but even then the special effects are shameful. <br/><br/>Plot/Characters: 4* - A rogue general looks to create an army of werewolves from a disease originating from a cursed woman who was bitten. The plot isn't terrible, but is overshadowed by poor acting and terrible special effects. If you can get by those two things, then you might get some enjoyment out of this film.<br/><br/>Entertainment Value: 3* - It is only entertaining for a comical standpoint (laughing at how bad it is). Otherwise steer clear of this one.<br/><br/>My Score: 2.5+2+4+3 = 11.5/4 = 2.875<br/><br/>Email your thoughts to filmwatchinfool@gmail.com
I haven't been so entertained since 'Sharknado.' 'Battledogs' is, which I thought wouldn't be possible, a far superior film.<br/><br/>The script allows two of the acting professions finest leading men the platform to show the wide range of their craft.<br/><br/>I was on the edge of my Lazy-Boy the entire film, gripped in suspense, thrilled by the action and on the verge of tears from the drama.<br/><br/>Stars Craig Sheffer and Dennis Haybert have set the bar so high with 'Battledogs' it's unclear why they didn't receive Oscars.<br/><br/>I can only think that they so outshone their peers, it was out of pure jealousy they were purposefully not recognized.<br/><br/>9 stars out 10, only because the Battledogs didn't bring about a nuclear apocalypse, which they were certainly capable of.
