just watched it last night... my mind was BLOWN! Alpha and Omega 4: The Legend of the Saw Tooth Cave is proof on how to do a sequel. let me start off by saying: this movie's only 47 minutes, but yet it does everything right. First of all, i loved how it didn't shy away from being darker. it's targeted to both audiences. i mean adults will love it cause it had darker themes that hits adults to the core, and kids'll love it cause it's a fun action with cool wolves. for any age group this movie's gonna appeal to everybody.**Spoiler Alert**okay, spoiler alert: if you haven't seen this movie yet and don't want anything spoiled, stop reading now. this movie introduces the best new characters we've had in the Alpha and Omega sequels. you got Daria, a blind wolf who's been living in the cave for years, hiding from the guys who wanted to kill her. and i gotta tell ya: Daria's flashback's one of the best scenes in the movie and one of my favorite scenes in the franchise. it goes deep into her story showing how she came to be and how she almost killed off if it weren't for her mom (who instead got killed off for breaking the rules) and the movie does that without narration. i loved it, i loved how this movie acknowledges the real life fact that animals do kill other animals that they find useless. right there, i was like "holy s@#t! i wasn't expecting something like this" it was great, i loved it. sure, it would've been even better if they showed more about how Daria felt throughout these long years while living in the cave, but as it stands, it worked well and i loved it. also, you can totally relate to Daria, cause she's the type of shy person who just wants to fit in with others even though she's not 100% perfect. that's what i call top notch writing! also, Alpha and Omega 4 introduces the first porcupine character in the franchise that's serves a point for being in the movie, and not just a pointless relief. yea Floyd: best and funniest porcupine character of the franchise. speaking of the other characters, like i said: they're back and they're even better! Runt gets the main focus again, but the kid's still great at what he does and he's definitely the best of the 3 puppies. he proves that even Omegas can act like Alphas, which was great to see. not only that, but he and Daria: their chemistry is one of the things that makes this movie so great. they're nothing like the generic "oh hey! we're best friends and we care about each other" type of characters. they have a lot more than that, they both get the right amount of screen time and development. and Kate and Humphrey in this movie: wow! i had no idea these 2 were gonna be so great in a movie together, let alone in a sequel together. they're getting worried at the fact that the puppies are growing up and it won't be long till they're old enough to have their own life. that's another great thing, cause it's something most parents in real life go through. but it wouldn't be complete without the end fight. WHOA! now i knew that Kate was gonna fight, cause she's an Alpha and Alphas do through (and admittedly, she was awesome). but Humphrey too?! you can remember him as the cool guy, the fun loving Omega from the other movies. well in this one, he shows that he'll do anything to make sure his family's safe. Humphrey's a total bad ass! the other characters are also back, they're great too. especially Tony, he gets a great role. he shows us that the last time he was in Shadow Forest with the other Alpha wolves didn't end as well as he thought. which is great! it helps the supernatural stuff in the movie have a point and not just be a regular haunting. my only gripe is that Lilly's only in the movie for the first 10-15 minutes. the trailer made out to be like she has a bigger role in the movie, but no. she's only at the beginning. maybe they're probably saving her for the next one.all in all: Alpha and Omega 4 is a fantastic movie, the best outta the sequels, it does everything a sequel should do and lives up to the first movie, the characters are great, the animation's better (almost on par with A&O 1, which was a big surprise), it had great comedy, a great and original plot, it was intense, exciting, emotional and heart-warming... what's not to like about this movie? sure it does have some small flaws, but those are just nitpicks. and yea, a few scenes in the movie almost had me in tears. you can't help it, you relate to the characters so much that whenever a scene like this comes, you're like "Damn, that's just sad!" don't listen to the stupid and idiotic bad reviews in here, cause these reviews are just wrong! go watch Alpha and Omega 4, i'm sure you're gonna love it.

I'll be honest, the last two Alpha And Omega movies while fun, and dramatic at times, they weren't as good as the first. But then the 4th movie was released and wow... It took me buy surprise. For the record I love this movie so much. It's my 2nd fave Alpha And Omega movie, after the first one) The plot is just amazing with a dark tone and an unexpected twist. This was really well done. These are the type of movies I want more of from this series. The character named Daria is a blind wolf, who was almost murdered as a pup. But her mother saved her from the pack leader, and as punishment for letting her blind daughter get away, she was killed instead... The movie has this great set up starting with a flash back to the night when Daria mother was killed, after hiding her daughter in order to keep her safe.Daria is then taken in by a porcupine. Who seems to raise her for the rest of her young life. As the movie goes on, we learn that this ghost wolf which all the packs seem to think is haunting this forest, is actually the ghost of Daria's mother, who drives anyone away who tries to harm her. Even after seeing that she's made it to adulthood, when her old pack finds out that she's still alive, they strive to murder her again, but are stopped thanks to Kate, and Humphrey, and Runt. Plus the ghost mom sucks up the wolves who try to get to Daria as well... Yeah. Twisted. But the plot, the writing, the fight scenes, the animation, everything and I mean everything was perfect. I loved it and will be watching it again very soon. (Maybe even tomorrow) I am happy to say that Alpha And Omega 4 is the best squeal from the series, and is just too good to pass up. Watch the movie. Mark my words, you'll love it and will know that is a fantastic movie. Because it really it. It really is.
