Beast jungle, where to hide

In terms of image effects, there is no addition, just like shooting with a handheld camera, and no special close-up shots are added.

The characters in the film, there are no special emotions, no dramatic performances, no long speeches. It's like you're sitting next to them and watching one thing happen after another.
Maybe some people's hearts are originally evil, wild animals. They have no logic, no pity, they only focus on themselves, and they are still in the primary stage of murder and revenge. The Cody family is such a group of people who only focus on themselves, have no feelings, and never think about their own right or wrong.

I don't want to introduce these people one by one, each person has his own characteristics. The worst person inside I think is the godmother---the mother. He has never stopped his children from doing these lawless things, never reflected on his own education problems, and will only make futile post-mortems, making his grandson give up his principles and feelings for his girlfriend for the sake of his own son.
In the last episode, it wasn't that the two sons were approved by the law - because of the grandson's compromise. But the death of the villain at the end was just personal vengeance, and a plot turned the tone of things into darkness.


What makes this movie stand out:

1. The characters have no expressions, only indifference, only indifference.

    Can't stand these sissy lyrical soundtracks and slow motion

    A film that is very close to life, and overall the story is still very real.

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.
