Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

Overall, Beasts of the Southern Wild contains undeniable vision and ambition, even if the emotional clarity feels perhaps too certain for a child in the abstract world on display.

“Beasts” grabbed me and carried me through the full gamut of emotions so effectively that even when I was being manipulated I just didn’t care. There is so much heart and feeling that saturates this film.

"Beasts of the Southern Wild" is a vibrant, moving testament to the world's interconnectedness. It is also one of cinema's most difficult, hardest-won coming-of-age stories, which makes that even more impressive.

Beasts of the Southern Wild takes the tone of its opening jubilation and stretches it out for the entire duration creating an incomparable cinematic experience that captures the imagination in the best way possible.
