This is probably one of the most creative bits of home brew filmmaking I've seen in quite a while.
Incredibly creative and funny. Wonderful gags from start to finish.
Unfortunately the film's greatest strength can also be its greatest weakness at times.
The choice to have no dialogue is fun, but it denies the opportunity for the film to slow down at any point. This results in the experience being a little exhausting.
Jokes that should be funny whiz by at times, since the brain is so overstimulated.
The non-stop, rapid fire pace can be greatly appreciated in short bursts, but if you hold down the trigger the barrel is going to overheat.
Still, greatly appreciated this movie. Plenty of laugh out loud moments. I have a soft spot in my heart for films like this where it's clear the people involved have a lot of passion and love for movies.
Highly recommend, probably going to check out "Lake Michigan Monster" next.
Cheers!

This film was excellent for the first half hour. The premise the look of the film, and also the comedic timing was spot on. I commend all of the filmmakers for the do it yourself style.
The only in major issue with it is it's way too long. There isn't a world where this film needed to be two hours long. If it was 80 minutes and a little faster paced in the middle this would have a very higher score.
But the cinematography and the editing was excellent. Wes Anderson would be proud. I'm excited to see what this filmmaker does with his next project which I hope is a little more focused and tight.

Endlessly inventive in the style of a 1920's silent movie, Hundreds of Beavers asks the question, what do you get when you cross Wile E Coyote with Buster Keaton and set him loose in the wilds of a Wisconsin winter? The answer is a damn good time despite - and in some cases because of - the low budget effects and cheap production values.
Blending animation with live footage, the movie is a series of pratfalls, skits and visual gags that could just as easily be tasks in a video game, or else a drunken dream brought on by imbibing too much cider.
Humans wearing animal onesies are a terrific stand-in for anthropomorphized cartoon characters. Similarly, the fact that the over the top violence more often than not results in death also seems more appropriate to the live action genre.
It's unlikely that Disney will come calling anytime soon (unless they discover a market for a pole dancing princess), which means you'll just have to take a chance and discover the charm of this movie's raw, unpolished nature on your own.

There are so many great old-school type gags running past the screen at full tilt, built-on or even combined in ways that I never saw coming, encouraging multiple viewings (which I will gladly do with giddy enthusiasm).
This flick is like a combination of the best classic cartoon skits, all mooched together, added with a hint of video-game logic, then stretched out into a full length feature, and somehow nailing it. With barely any downtime, it keeps upping the ante, getting more and more zany, yet always with a focused eye on the narrative. Not to mention, for such a small budget they really got the animated style down, with prefect settings or simple but effective tools, such as goofy costumes and multiple humorous props.
One of the most fun theatre experience I've had in quite a long time, the audience belly laughing the whole was trough.

Before seeing the movie at the Hamburg Fantasy Filmfest, I wondered how an hour and a half of playtime can be filled with the ideas in the trailer without getting slow or tedious. Now I actually wonder when it was the last time I laughed that much through a whole movie.
While delivering a consistent, smart, reduced and extremely efficient visual syle, the presentation doesn't let your focus away for one second, otherwise you might miss something funny. The way it symbolizes, repeats and develops the events by smart iteration in a limited universe ist ist excellent!
I highly recommend seeing it. Not for small kids.

- CuriosidadesThe film's estimated budget was around $150,000. Director Mike Cheslik estimated that the mascot costumes cost around $10,000, and the crew bought all of the costumes online.
- PifiasAt several points, characters use castor oil instead of castoreum. Castoreum is a musky substance that beavers produce to mark territory. Castor oil is a product of the castor bean and is unrelated to beavers.
