56 of 56 · most liked firstI realize this isn't possible for everyone, but...tired of Hollywood remakes? LIMBO and THE ANIMAL KINGDOM both are out as of this weekend, and both are getting great reviews. Look for a movie you haven't seen on pay cable or streaming--probably costs less than a movie ticket + food.
neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve not ventured into the Animal Kingdom tv show but the film is brilliant. Although Aunty Donna might have ever so slightly ruined it in my brain.
positive · AI labelView post →Finally got around to watching “The Animal Kingdom” a weird French film about lots of people turning into animals. It’s a decent movie about animal transformation with a disappointing lack of snouts.

neutral · AI labelView post →Film #5: THE ANIMAL KINGDOM The best makeup FX of the year can be found in this award-winning French import that barely got released in the U.S., about a near future where people are evolving into half-animal creatures. Allegorical sci-fi in the vein of X-MEN. Better than many X-MEN films actually.

positive · AI labelView post →Films I would recommend after seeing them at Leeds International Film Festival (2023): (In order of viewing) - River - Restore Point - The Animal Kingdom - Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person - Red Rooms - Fallen Leaves
positive · AI labelView post →today I am thinking about the Tree of Life. not the mythological one, the Animal Kingdom one. it's weird how the attraction inside that thing is a 3D film based on a specific IP, rather than something broader about, like, the long history of animals in art. they could cram even more IP into that too

neutral · AI labelView post →I've found a really good sci-fi movie called "The Animal Kingdom," 2023, in French, on Hulu. It's pretty much got the same concept as "Sweet-Tooth" on Netflix did.
positive · AI labelView post →THE ANIMAL KINGDOM is truly an incredible movie and I hope more people see it.
positive · AI labelView post →Yes! I was so disappointed to see The Animal Kingdom is no better a transfer than The Film Detective DVD remaster I bought 10 years ago. On the plus side, new BDs of Love Crazy and Double Wedding will be released Oct 27 and Nov 24.🥳

neutral · AI labelView post →Probably a theatrical short film is safest bet if Disney suddenly wants to bring back the hype of Encanto, especially when they got the Animal Kingdom ride and a Disney Cruise Line show happening in 2027. But that is Disney Animation’s decision. Right now, they’re busy with Frozen and Zootopia.

A virus is turning people - mind/body - into animals (existentially horrifying). It's perhaps about death, holding onto loved ones vs letting go. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgB7...

neutral · AI labelView post →The Animal Kingdom Decent French people-turning-into-animals film. Some fairly heavy handed allegories about tolerance, growing up etc but also… lots of half-animal people. Fun. 🐺🐺🐺 #LIFF2023

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm sure some Youtuber has pointed this out, but since the characters in The Lion King are aware of real pop songs like 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' and are keenly familiar with the infamous 'It's a Small World', maybe the movie isn't set in Africa but the Animal Kingdom section of the park
neutral · AI labelView post →The Animal Kingdom! Movie 14! It’s French! A virus (probably?) slowly turns humans into weird animal things. Sort of a blend of Teen Wolf & Sweet Tooth, this was powerfully acted and extremely melancholy - which means I had a great time watching. Extra shout out to the SPFX MU dept! 8/10 mageddons
