Animales Peligrosos

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.

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.

Australia's known for its deadly wildlife, but Dangerous Animals asks-what if the most dangerous predator was serial killer steve irwin? This sunlit survival horror follows Zephyr, an American surfer abducted by a shark-obsessed madman (a delightfully unhinged Jai Courtney) who feeds tourists to great whites as eco-reparations. It's a wild premise, but the relentless tension, grounded action, and unexpectedly emotional beats make it work. With beautiful real shark footage, clever set-ups and payoffs, and one of the gnarliest self-surgery scenes i've seen in a while, the film manages to be scary, ridiculous, and empowering all at once. A brutal, blood-soaked ride that somehow still finds time for a killer dance scene and a touch of heart.

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.

Couldn't take my eyes off the screen! Drama, action, psychologically thrilling, this movie delivers it all. The pacing was great too, it pulls off the perfect balance for a thriller. It draws you in throughout the entirety of the movie without having too much going on at any given time. I loved the ending too, there's so many twists that you just genuinely aren't expecting to happen. I'll definitely be rewatching after it comes out on streaming services & I can't wait to watch it again. This movie is a definite underdog coming up that deserves to be a blockbuster, absolutely great movie & worth the watch!
