Movie Reviews of A Man Among Wolves
Movie Review: A Man Among Wolves......Amazing!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just watched this in entirety last week and I have to say that it is one of the most amazing documentaries I have ever seen. Shaun Ellis is definitely a strange bird.....which is awesome. He is trying to become integrated into the wolf culture as a human, and to do so, he must attempt to live among them as often as possible. As Ellis explains, he must wear the same clothes and eat parts of animal carcasses with them so that he can keep the wolves' trust, stay in their hierarchy, and keep all conditions as natural as possible. I am not a researcher or game warden, so I do not know a lot about wolves or other animals. But, everything in the documentary is very well explained and it is obvious that Shaun Ellis is trying to prepare the wolves for living in the wild, which brings me to something else.
A previous reviewer slammed Ellis for not knowing anything about wolves. The reviewer said that he (or she) had first-hand knowledge about this subject, so I am not going to argue that. But, why would Ellis want the wolves to be friendly and sociable for other people??? He's trying to release them into the wild. The last thing he would want is for these animals to "not care" about unfamiliar human scents and proximity. If they become docile, they won't last a week outside of their compound. I don't care what anyone says, this guy is onto something big. He may not be formally trained as a park ranger or scientist, but he is obviously a brilliant and passionate person who wants to help find a solution to a big problem (wolves being killed by farmers who are trying to protect their livestock). Ellis is not delusional about what he is doing, being quite frank and detailed in his explanations. Again, he is trying to help three abandoned wolves, who were rejected by their mother, learn survival skills in order to live in the wild.
I definitely recommend this! It's great!
