Animales Peligrosos

I was not familiar with any of the 3 leads and found them all to be excellent. Hassie Harrison seems like a young slightly prettier Jennifer Lawrence and that is a huge compliment. Jai Courtney was terrific as the villain He delivered some great speeches and in one scene channeled his inner Buffalo Bill to great success. Josh Heuston was also new to me and he had great charm and elicited tons of empathy in his role. About 15 minutes in I was thinking, "OK, now what are they going to do with this setup." It seemed like it would be claustrophobic and limited with where it could go. Was I ever wrong. Kudos to Sean Byrne for a great script and solid direction that really kept he tension high. Most of you are going to see this when it lands on Shudder. I think it is not going to be as great as on a bigger screen for sure. I would have rated this higher, but an 8 and up film is somewhat exceptional. Comes very close, but I think I will have forgotten the film in a year or two and that kept my score a 7. Try to catch it at your theater if you can.

Dangerous Animals is a scrappy Australian horror-thriller that's pure fun, proving a tiny budget can deliver big thrills. This indie gem keeps you hooked with raw energy and a cast of unknowns who bring real heart, making you root for them. Clocking in at a tight 90 minutes, it's lean, mean, and never drags.

Smart pacing and a chilling atmosphere pull you right in. It shows what a small, passionate team can do, making Hollywood's bloated blockbusters look foolish.

Compare that to those $200 mill+ Hollywood flops packed with A-listers and CGI, lazy scripts, and overblown visuals that prioritize flash over story (yes, I'm looking at you, Jurassic World: Rebirth).

Dangerous Animals crafts a gripping experience with minimal resources. It's a thrilling reminder that you don't need big budgets to make something truly entertaining.

Excellent indie thriller with jai Courtney giving a fine performance as our truely dangerous animal.

All the thrills and horror on the boat keep you guessing and cringing with terror as this film rolls on.with stunning cinematography and breathtaking violence to hold you till the end.

All the cast did a fine job and the script holds up better than most in these type of movies.

Oh and the sharks do make an appearance and yes truely terrifying beasts of the sea, but the real animal is jai Cortney.

Filmed on the gold coast and qld this local film will not do tourism any favours. But hey I don't think it will stop them neither.

Saw this at an unknown screening and when it announced the movie, everybody groaned. But that opening scene blew everyone away and hooked them in, such a good opener for a movie.

Went into this knowing absolutely nothing, and was pleasantly surprised. A really exhilarating film that mixes 10 Cloverfield Lane with Nicholas Cage's The Surfer, and I have to say it was a very fun watch. The main girls acting wasn't amazing but it was definitely believable, even if her character was a bit 1 noted. Where this definitely shines is the kidnapper, he does an amazing and terrifying job.

Definitely not a masterpiece but I really enjoyed it.

I didn't expect much watching this one. I was oftentimes wondering why I was watching it or of I would turn it off after 20 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised and something kept me hooked. I think Courtney really played the part so well. His character was similar to the one in Terminal List, but that's just where he excels.

Story wasn't very deep, action was okay, other actors we're average at best. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a thriller without much depth but great scenes led by the actor.
