Kate is shown inadvertently wearing a bra from a human’s suitcase that’s come open. Marcel and Paddy slyly comment on Kate and Humphrey being “undomesticated partners.” (He’s pleased by the position.) Wolves are seen holding paws and sitting close. Humphrey is seen lying on top of Kate when the two inadvertently tumble together. Young wolves pair up for a moonlight howl at one point, and a slow-motion close-up of Kate, waving her fur and walking like a human woman on a runway, prompts comments of “hot” and “sexy.” Garth asks Kate, “Was it good for you?” after he howls to impress her. Humphrey, for his part, can’t wait to howl with Kate, and he urges her to do so with him on several occasions. And while kids may not go that far mentally, they’ll surely understand that it’s all about sexiness. It’s awkwardly explained that alphas and omegas are forbidden to howl together, but what’s really meant is that they shouldn’t mate. Nothing gets explicit, but nearly everything in Alpha and Omega is winkingly tied back to sex. The snarling packs eventually grow to have a caring relationship that supersedes aggressive wolf customs. Several characters risk their lives to save others. Winston helps archrival Tony when he’s unable to run from danger. Loving wolf couples illustrate the fact that opposites can teach and complement one another. Humphrey steps up to the plate to protect Kate and others, showing his own leadership ability even when nobody expects an omega to do anything heroic.
Alpha and omega how to#
During her unexpected trip/adventure/ordeal with Humphrey, she learns how to have fun and be a good leader. Trading out wolves for humans, that’s a pretty big deal, and she handles it about as well as you could hope. And if there’s anything even close to meaty material in this flick, it’s her grappling with what it looks like to do the right thing while not giving up on love at the same time. Kate tries hard to follow her sense of duty to provide for and guard her pack, even if she’d rather eat those dreadful berries than mate with Garth.

So at the advice of Marcel, a golf-playing goose, and Paddy, his caddy, Kate and Humphrey hitchhike north-innocently cementing a forbidden romance in the process. Her sense of responsibility calls her back to Jasper to marry Garth and keep her pack well fed and protected.

That plan gets foiled when Kate and the jealous Humphrey are unexpectedly captured by forest rangers and relocated to Idaho in order to repopulate wolf packs there. She’s a peace offering designed to join the two feuding packs and open up fertile hunting fields for everyone. And it’s really not fair that Kate’s being groomed by her dad, Winston, to mate with Tony’s alpha son Garth. There are always berries to eat if the caribou herd dwindles.Ĭlearly, then, alpha Kate and omega Humphrey are from opposite ends of the pack. After all, their hunting grounds battle with the Eastern wolves and their top dog, Tony, doesn’t need to be so serious. Laid back omegas, meanwhile, just wanna have fun. The take-charge alpha wolves in Canada’s Jasper National Park can’t see the forest for all the furry prey that’s begging to be stalked and killed.
