Perfect sad ending or perfect to have a sequel - just saying. Haven't watched the movie yet, but knowing the ending tells me it's a setup for a second movie. Probably assume this because I'd NEVER allow a human not to win in the end. So many directions you can take a sequel to this movie.. If he takes out the pack leader, the other wolves could actually see him as the dominant wolf and you know all the possibilities that could exist for going anywhere with a movie under that scenario. Great cliffhanger.
