"Animal Kingdom"

The film’s success lies in the creation of a criminal film atmosphere that is different from the past. Although it is a family criminal group, it does not explain the crime itself too much, but focuses on revenge with the police, entanglements with lawyers, and various types of characters derived from time to time. Or less interest relationship, as well as contradictory feelings between themselves.

Excessive deaf sound played a good auxiliary role.

The setting of the protagonist's character expresses the contradiction in the self that is more uncontrollable than the surrounding environment.

    The point of view is interesting

    Alternative gangster family, literary style, a bunch of sleepy beasts, the camera is slow, dull, the last shot came too fast and too suddenly, plus one star, the old lady's acting is very good! The soundtrack is also good. This film is a good film compressed!

Animal Kingdom quotes

  • [after the death of Craig]

    Leckie: You know what the bush is about? It's about massive trees that have been standing there for thousands of years... and bugs that'll be dead before the minute's out. It's big trees and pissy little bugs. And everything knows its place in the scheme of things. Everything... everything sits in the order somewhere. Things survive because they're strong, and everything reaches an understanding. But not everything survives because it's strong. Some creatures are weak, but they survive because they're being protected by the strong for one reason or another. You may think that, because of the circles you move in or whatever, that you're one of the strong creatures, but you're not, you're one of the weak ones. That's nothing against you, you're just - you're just weak because you're young. But you've survied because you've been protected by the strong. But they're not strong anymore, and they're certainly not able to protect you. We're here because we know who you are and we know what you've done. Now, I know you feel like you're in a tough situation. But you have an out. There's nothing your uncles can do to squirm out of this one; Craig's learned that the hard way. But you're not like them. We can see that, and you know that. Now I know that they're saying to you that talking to me is betraying the family, but they've betrayed *you*. The fact that you're talking to me, the fact that you've been left to deal with us... is all the proof that you need. And you're in danger. Don't be confused about that. I think you know. And I think you know that I can help you. But I can't keep offering. You've gotta decide. You've gotta work out where you fit.

    Joshua 'J' Cody: I don't know why you're telling me all of this.

    Leckie: Yes, you do.

  • Detective Randall Roache: Look I know you got a problem Janine, but I don't see how this mess your boys are in has got anything to do with me. So if you've called me in here to see if there are some strings I can pull in your way of course. Is that what this is about?

    Janine Cody: Hey Randall, before you go on, this boy who's currently being looked after, tell me if you agree with this, this boy who's being looked after, he knows who you are. And you know how these things go they're gonna ask him all sorts of questions about everything he's ever seen or done. Everyone he's ever met, the whole schmozzle. And you've done some bad things sweetie, haven't you? I want this part to be clear this is not about you doing me a favor or me blackmailing you or anything like that. It's just a bad situation for everyone. Ezra here's got the address, it shouldn't be too hard to set up a raid on the house. There'd be reasonable grounds, what with all the strange activity, the comings and goings, day and night, one of the neighbors might've seen a gun or something. This is your area of expertise, I'm not trying to tell you how to suck eggs. What do you think?

    Detective Randall Roache: I really don't see how anything can be done, Janine.

    Janine Cody: Randall, I feel sick about this. I'm not happy at all, not one little bit. But we do what we have to do, we do what we must. Just because we don't wanna do something doesn't mean it can't be done.
