The story follows a family of four who load up their supplies and retreat from Paris after a disaster leaves the water contaminated and livestock sickened, causing the government to put sanctions of food and fuel. Arriving at their country house, the family is attacked, their patriarch is murdered, and their supplies are stolen, leaving Anne (Huppert), Eva (Demoustier) and the fragile young Ben (Biscombe) to wander the bleak countryside in a fervent search for justice and protection.

So far, this is the weakest Haneke film I've seen. Unlikable characters navigate their dull struggles in an uninteresting post-apocalyptic world, occasionally engaging in tedious philosophical debates. I can't fathom why Haneke felt the need to make this. From a filmmaker of his caliber, I expected that if he ventured into this genre, he would bring something truly unique to the table. If his goal was to create an anti-sci-fi film, as I've heard, he definitely missed the mark. Comparing this to Tarkovsky’s Solaris, where space sci-fi is used to explore profound themes, the disparity is glaring. Tarkovsky managed to transcend genre boundaries – even if he claimed otherwise – and crafted something exceptional. He achieved this even more effectively in Stalker. Haneke’s Time of the Wolf doesn’t measure up; it contains some of his signature elements but ultimately fails to stand out in the post-apocalyptic genre. It ends up being just another ordinary entry, which is a huge missed opportunity for Haneke. A "post-apocalyptic film by Michael Haneke" sounds tantalizing on paper, but the final product feels like an undercooked, mediocre dish. I've seen far better post-apocalyptic films from much lesser directors. But hey, even the best make mistakes, and I forgive this misstep from the master.
