Serious pacing issues

This film was only an hour and forty-three minutes but it felt like three hours. As someone who has been a youth in rural Canada I deeply resonated with the depiction of the bleakness and dullness of life in small northern town. It was hopeless and boring as a youth, and it didn't make for a very entertaining film.The acting was great, but too many long drawn out fantasy sequences that didn't really add to the film. It looked good. I liked the lighting and the setting, but...nothing happens. It needed more story and fewer music videos.It was tagged as horror and romance, but it did not have enough of either. It had barely any of either really.Finally, why is Canada only allowed to make werewolf movies now?

[4.2] What a pompous title

A sad excuse of a movie with everything wasted, besides the two leads who enjoyed very much their time in the movie and the supporting cast having fun in the snow and indoor.The movie would have benefited from a tight editing bringing the runtime down to 45-50 minutes, to add some transformations, some thrills and some ghastly discoveries from both sides. To have this one categorized as horror and romance is only in Jacqueline Castel's head.Screenplay/storyline/plots: 4Development: 5Realism: 5.5Entertainment: 6Acting: 5.5Filming/photography/cinematography: 6VFX: 5Music/score/sound: 4.5Depth: 3Logic: 2Flow: 4.5Horror/romance: 3Ending: 0.5.
