Good story, Not enough for a whole film

For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Garbage, probably but I really won't know because they lost me at the opening line. Any movie with an opening line of "she was thirsting for my penis" has nowhere to go but into the crapper. So no, I did not watch the movie. I turned it off right after hearing that line (which was in fact the first line of dialog in the movie). I don't have high expectations, I'm not expecting another "Twelve Angry Men", I just want to watch a thriller, horror movie that tries to bring something new to the genre. This may be it, but I'll never know because the idiot that decided what the opening scene and dialog would be was too lame to realize that his choice sucked. Some won't care, some might think it's cool, but I was totally turned off. To the people involved in this grade Z production - get your selves sorted out. This is crap.

I liked this movie for the most part; The acting was better than most B-movies. The opening scene was really bad and should have been left on the cutting room floor. I noticed a lot of editing scenes in just for filler. I would have enjoyed the movie if the werewolf looked better. This werewolf looked worse than MTV's 'Teen Wolf'. I mean look back 40 years and you'll see scarier creatures than this thing.

Uncaged is the story of a college boy, forced to lock himself in a cage to protect the world from the beast within. The story follows three friends as they plunge into one wild weekend in the country. It has the classic supernatural metamorphosis element. The protagonist figures out how to use his dark power for good: to rescue a battered wife. The cast gave memorable performances as oddballs characters. It has high production value. The special effects are good. The plot moves with funny jokes. The comic book style animation was a nice touch. It's Teen Wolf meets an R. Kelly video. If you like werewolf pictures, you will like Uncaged.

There is a lot to like about this movie; it uses its limited budget well, the dialogue is great, the acting is solid and it has a unique story. All of these things add up to a decent horror comedy that fans of low budget horror will enjoy.That being said it is also important to know not to expect some crazy, blood-soaked monster mash as things don't really get going in that department until near the end and are pretty tame, most likely due to budget restrictions. Instead the film is a more personal story, and a good one, it's just that with the title and the poster you might get the wrong idea and be expecting something you aren't going to get (a bit like Gareth Edwards' Monsters). It also has a few problems with pacing and logic, i.e. events occurring without any build up and then forgotten about until convenient, but nothing too off-putting. This movie demands a lot of attention and has a lot packed into the first hour for the final act to pay off properly, but overall it has enough going for it to give it a shot. It works well as both a comedy and a horror, just know going in that it is a story-heavy movie rather than a mindless gore-fest and you won't be disappointed.
