Idris Elba is pretty damn good here. Sharlto Copley was nice to see, I’ve missed him in films. Some of the CGI usage on the live animals is questionable but not enough to take you out of the movie going experience. Read more

I wasn’t expecting very much from Beast, but my expectations were not even remotely met. A real summer dud for me I’m afraid. Read more

Het survival-genre draait dolle toeren met Beast. Opnieuw een horrorfilm die de moeite waard is voor de bios! Read more

Beast is een aardige thriller, die helaas het benodigde rauwe randje mist om echt interessant te worden. Read more
