Screen Daily by Lee Marshall
Director Jon Watts’ self-penned script possesses a faultless sense of timing, and it becomes the gift that keeps on giving in the hands of Clooney, Pitt and a fine supporting cast.
The Playlist by Rafaela Sales Ross
At a time when more and more filmmakers seem to be looking back at the basics of classic genres like cop procedurals, romantic comedies and crime thrillers, Watts brings to the table a tightly written and directed action comedy that is reminiscent of the era that crowned the genre without alienating itself from the time in which it was made.
Vanity Fair by Richard Lawson
The movie is not trying to make any grand statements or reinvent any wheels; it is only trying to entertain.
Screen Rant by Alexander Harrison
Wolfs isn't just funny, it's funny in all the different ways it needs to be.
San Francisco Chronicle by Michael Ordona
Yes, it’s a familiar formula, though instead of buddy cops, it’s buddy cleaners. What these “Wolfs” do is shades darker than the gentleman thievery of the “Ocean’s” larks, and the character comedy comes from a deeper place.
The Associated Press by Jake Coyle
Thankfully, someone has come to the not-hard-to-deduce realization that Clooney and Pitt are good together.
RogerEbert.com by Glenn Kenny
This is neither a trifle nor a truly Major Motion Picture; it’s an entertainment maybe in the sense that Graham Greene used the term. But one needn’t be so hifalutin about the matter.
TheWrap by William Bibbiani
It’s a movie about cool people looking and acting cool, for the enjoyment of the (probably uncool) people in the audience. They call it ‘star power’ because it dazzles.
IndieWire by Ryan Lattanzio
Even if Wolfs is a light affair in the end, it’s a smashing good time, confidently told and unpredictable, with two charismatic leading turns that are nearly even upstaged by Abrams.
