ari v @RT59419633 07/28/2021 Next Day Update: It's honesty/resonance and disconformity became clearer when thinking about it while listening to Joyner Lucas' ISIS the next day; especially where supporting characters are concerned. Still a little too romantic about the central character's likeness to reach the heights of Precious or Moonlight or Bests Of No Nation, but closer to that than to wokepleasers like Get Out, Parasite or Knives Out. Original Review: Pretty good, but I'd be surprised if it sticks with me long. Perhaps because it's little too convenniently in-vogue abd articised to a point of disconect.

Honestly so beautiful and accomplishes exactly what it set out to do. The last ten (or five?) minutes evoked a lot of emotion from me, and of course the movie is very pretty visually. Does a great job conveying brotherhood and childhood, as well as the difficulties impoverished people face, all through the convincing lens of a child. Gorgeous film. See more 01/17/2020 Poetic, beautiful and heartfelt. We the Animals is a sublime, hypnotic and coming of age story about brotherhood, love and finding yourself in the world. Every shot looks like an oil painting. Camera and sound are used expressively and powerfully like any director with a very specific sense of vision would use.

It's characters feel completely human, and you can understand how each of them got to where they are without agreeing with them. In many ways it reminds me of Moonlight, and just like it We the Animals is a film that everyone should see.

Coming of age drama about a boy finding himself that is a little too much like 'Moonlight'. Documentarian Jeremiah Zagar's first scripted feature and i use the word script loosely. There's not much meat on the bone. Not my cup of tea! Final Score: 5.1/10 See more Read all reviews
