We watched this as a family the other night and it was an OK adventure movie, until the ending.
The story is about a Cro-Magnon kid and his dad who's the chief (alpha) of his tribe. He takes the kid on a big hunt and tries to teach him to be brave, be a leader, etc. They encounter a wolf pack at one point and the dad points out the alpha wolf who is leading his pack. The kid balks during the hunt, gets hurt and left for dead. When he gets attacked by the wolf pack, he injures the alpha, then nurses him back to health. The kid actually names him Alpha. They go toe to toe several times before the wolf finally succumbs to his master and becomes man's best friend.
They hunt together, they save each other and eventually, the kid makes it home. Happy ending, right? Guess, what? The wolf is actually a pregnant female.
Again, Hollywood has to take an otherwise decent movie and turn it into a statement about feminism. Why?
