I will NOT be seeing the movie.

I do realize the movie is purely for entertainment, but the timing is bad.

I’m just not in the mood right now to see a movie that depicts wolves in a bad light…thereby giving wolf-haters more ammunition. Wolf advocates are in a battle for the very lives of wild wolves right now…..then along comes Little Red Riding Hood yet again….ya, I’ll skip this one.

I will not see it because it contributes to the myth that the wolf attacks humans…..I cannot condone this type of entertainment.

Though it is only a movie for entertainment purposes….the timing is really awful.

Thanks for your comments! I have no desire to see this film either, as it portrays a negative, untrue image of wolves. Yes, the release of this frightening fictional story is bad timing, as wolves are in the spotlight more than ever. Go check out award winning activist/writer Richard Propes’s review of the film at “The Independent Critic,”
