Summary: Oh, the humanity!
Review: My thoughts are plagued by the eternal mysteries of this magical film universe. Does being a "Teen Wolf" increase your height by five inches and guarantee basketball prowess? Or, conversely, does the mastery of said big-ball sport make one become a hairy high school "King of the Court?" Or, we could nix all this and get into the surfing. Oh, lonesome wolf of the teen variety, you prance upon the waves like a Neanderthal out of water...... except that you're on the van, i'm told.

Summary: Lets give Jason Bateman a break!
Review: Although I agree with all the reviews covering this DVD that Teen Wolf (the original) was better, I believe people should ease up on the harsh reviews of Teen Wolf Too.. although it's quite the similiar plot line, and its NOT MJF, Jason Bateman shines in his own right in this movie... doesn't anybody watch the hilarious Arrested Developement? It's the same wolf as from all those years ago! Plus, I like both actors who play Styles equally, and the dance scene with "Do You Love Me?" gives the movie that extra special 80's flare! I'm actually impressed that both movies are on one DVD set, I wanted both!!
Overall- A needed add to you're 80's movies collection, for the fans!

Summary: Teen Wolf
Review: Buy this DVD for Teen Wolf. Skip Teen Wolf Too.
I loved this movie as a kid, I like Mike Fox too, he did a good job in this movie. The werewolf theme was a little lame, but I still like the movie. He plays Scott Howard, a basketball playing nerd that likes to party hard. He can't seem to score a basket on the court or a date with his dream girl. Things change, however, once he discovers his family's hereditary secret, lycanthrope. As he begins to look hairier and hairier, his team begins to win basketball games and his dream girl begins to show interest in his unusual talent. His story does not progress without complications, however. His best friend, an opportunistic weasel, begins to exploit him beyond his limits of toleration, and his dream girl is captive to the requisite bully boyfriend, who, of course, captains the arch-rival basketball team. And then, to top it all off, Scott's other best friend (the attractive "Boof") is in love with him.

Summary: Just Teen wolf
Review: I don't know who had the idea to sell these movies together, "Teen wolf" it's a great movie of the 80's, very original and with good actors. Michael J. Fox makes one of his bet performs, withour need of SFX and sophisticated make up. I still enjoy the movie and wish more movies like this one were made. Enjoy "Teen wolf"

Summary: Me Teen Wolf Three!
Review: I have these movies on VHS and they are probably the two funniest movies in my collection. Teen Wolf is one of Michael J. Fox's finest early roles and it is obvious already, from this movie, what a great actor he is. Its a shame he couldn't reprise his role in Teen Wolf Too but Jason Batemen steps in and provides a memorable performance. While lightheartedly comedic it is also a surprisingly introspective study of self discovery and personal redemption. Throughout there is a coming-of-age undercurrent which is refreshing and inspiring. My only complaint about these movies is the cheap electronic soundtracks but I guess you can't have everything. I cannot wait for this widescreen DVD release.

Summary: Little Pigs, Little Pigs, Let Me In
Review: I love this release from MGM to release movies like this as a double feature (2 movies on one disc). I loved the first movie starring Michael J Fox as Scott Howard, a complete looser in high school on a struggling basketball team who one night inherits the family genes and discovers he is a werewolf. And finds out that werewolves aren't like they have been portrayed in movies, but have some great powers.
Teen Wolf Too starring Jason Bateman is one I used to watch as a kid. But then seeing it again I released it wasn't a great movie, tho it's not that bad, I think it gets stinking reviews because it's not M.J.F in it, instead it is supposed to be Scott's cousin, Todd Howard. I think the only mistake they made was trying to pass off 2 new and totally different actors to play the roles of Styles & The Couch. But over all, I think the movie was ok, it was not as good as the first, and was basically the same plot as the first one, but in the boxing field instead of Basketball and much the same things happening as in the 1st movie, but if you give it a ago, I'm sure everyone has seen worse movies before. It has copped a pretty bad rep for a while, but is it really so bad? It's just a movie for fun. And I think the soundtrack is pretty good for part 2.
But I do admit, I think the only way MGM would have gotten this sequel to sell if they put it on DVD would be how they have done it here as a double feature on a flip side disc. If they sold them individually, Teen Wolf Too would in the 20 cent bin eventually and still wouldn't have been picked up and even looked at much. But please, give it a go, it's really not so bad, it's ok for a sequel, could've been worse.
I'd have loved to see a 3rd Sequel for Teen Wolf. I always believe if you make a 2nd one, make a 3rd to round it off nicely, even if it's a bad, bad film, take Robocop 3 for example. There was a Teen Wolf "cartoon" made with both the teens Scott and Todd in it, I think? Maybe that would be an idea for a 3rd sequel. Or maybe get in Michael Jackson to star in it, he wouldn't require make up!!! Oh, no wait...sorry, that's monkeys from "Planet of the apes" I was thinking of, not Werewolves. Maybe someday we will see Teen Wolf 3, maybe little Bart might actually play the role, who knows? But for now, these 2 movies are available on the same flip side disc at a great price, there's no bonus features, but having both movies is good enough for me.

Summary: Wow.
Review: I'm a big fan of Michael J. Fox, and it isn't hard to see why. He has immense talent, and he's a very coordinated actor with MANY fine elements to his performance. Jason is a great actor too, although Michael pulled it off much better in my opinion. I always get a certain kind of wholesome feeling from watching Teen Wolf the original rather than in Teen Wolf Too, I feel like there's a guy trying to steal Michael's role. I think the director knew that it'd be a bad idea to cast someone else in Michael's role if they were to continue on the storyline from the original Teen Wolf into Teen Wolf 2. Obviously you can't have Scott Howard without the cool Boof, whoever the hell would name their daugher that, but anyway lol. Susan Ursitti would have to have been another "must have" to be able to pull off a sequel. The chemistry between her and Michael is great, and it can't be matched, because it's their spotlight.I'd recommend this awesome classic for anyone that's interested in watching a good wholesome movie.

Summary: Your typical 80's teen comedy...
Review: Let's see: a 'geeky' guy is on some sports team that REALLY needs to win. He also has this unpopular girl as his friend (who happnes to have a crush on him), and has a crush on the most beautiful & popular girl in school, who couldn't care less about him. Suddenly, the guy discovers he had inherited the family 'curse' - he is a werewolf. After the initial scare, he finds out he can use it to his advantage - he helps his sports team win, which makes him popular, which attracts the beautiful & popular girlfriend, which makes her boyfriend (who is, incidentaly, on the opposite team) mad, which leads to a big fight, which leads our protagonist to the conclusion that he had abused his power as a werewolf and the importance of team work. This leads to a confrontation with some sort of an authority figure, but eventually the team (lead and inpired by the protagonist) wins the day, and the guy gets together with the geeky girl he discovers he liked all along. Since this can describe both the movies, the unoriginal & repeated story line is the biggest fault I could find with the Teen Wolf 2 movie. OK, that and the fact Michael J. Fox (who made the most of the 1st film) wasn't in it. These are typical early tot mid 80's teen dramas, and the fun in them (at least for me) is the memories rather than the story and the laughs. And oh yeah, Michael J. Fox.

Summary: styles the movie ?
Review: lets face it Teen Wolf is a great movie but the best part of it, i mean the glue that keeps it together is my man styles.If you want to land some hot babes and mc some killer keg partys take a few pointers from the lord of the gravel pit.teal blue pants,red t shirt and green mesh head wear never looked so good.I can only plead to Styles (Jerry Levine)bring this guy back for a movie of his own since you were replaced with some lame imitator for teen wolf 2. i just saw Jason vs. Freddy but i have a good idea Styles vs. Stifler, what do you say lets get this one made already.
