half-baked ideas and any parts that strive to be funny or poignant instead come across as eye-rollingly cheesy or cloying. The writing is even worse, summing up in one word it's abominable. None of it fits with what's going on, stylistically it feels out of place and out of kilter, it's obtrusive and it's not even good music on its own. Blocky character designs, almost creepy expressions, very flat colours, a complete lack of fluidity in movement, endless goofs as long as your arm and less than meticulously detailed backgrounds are reminiscent of computer animation and video games in their infancy, something that one does not expect at all for 2014 even for low budget when technology has advanced as much as it has. It however is 'Toy Story' compared to the animation quality here, which is not quite Video Brinquedo, Spark Plug Entertainment or 'Foodfight' bad but almost and on the same level as 'The Swan Princess' CGI films.

The animation wasn't the best in the first film but it had its decent moments. The only thing that's different is that it's not based around winter/Christmas. The second sequel 'The Great Wolf Games' is every bit as bad, if this review is like a reiteration of my review for 'A Howl-iday Adventure' it is because the flaws here are exactly the same as previously, and the whole thing said about that film's flaws in the previous sentence applies here too, it's every bit as pointless too. Proof that 'Alpha and Omega' didn't need a sequel, let alone a franchise. 'Alpha and Omega's' first sequel 'A Howl-iday Adventure' was dreadful, repeating all the mistakes/flaws from the original, amplifying those flaws, and making more along the way.

Made the decision, despite not caring much at all for the first 'Alpha and Omega', to see its follow-ups (yes there is a franchise) out of curiosity and as an enormous fan of animation, would see anything regardless of critical reception.
