Humbersi
The first must-see film of the year.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

There is absolutely nothing interesting, special, cool, artsy etc. about this film. These are 4 of the dumbest people on the planet. A movie about 4 truly idiotic spoiled brats planning a heist, totally botching it and then getting caught?! WOW!! Groundbreaking I tell ya!! Hey, I know, lets commit the crime without disguises and use our parents car... THEN, take our stolen goods, not wear disguises again, drive our own vehicles again, use our actual phone numbers and the same email addresses, get an actual appraisal in a room full of cameras and we're golden! On and on and on... one dumb thing after the next. This sort of crime happens on a daily basis. And only 7 years in federal prison?!!!! Please... What a waste of time and money. NEXT.

A good film. It describes efficiently, the dreams and the aims of a considerable percentage of the contemporary youth in the U.S.A. Clearly states the dilemma college students face, when confronted with their future prospects. The choice between a 'normal' life (predictable, comfortable and relatively well envisaged) and an unconventional but exciting road to self-fulfilment. The luxury of this kind of choice, although restricted to affluent youngsters of a 'rich' country, is surprisingly difficult to make given the environment, the family conditions and the social expectations. The film presented to me a critical view of a 'foreigner' (the director is from the UK) to real contemporary problems the youth in the U.S.A. face. The 'documentary-like' scenes (talk to the camera, interviews, references to real persons) were excellent additions to the narrative flow.

The whole thing was utterly ridiculous, supposedly true but still ridiculous. Four idiots.
So many "holes" in the thought process of these four main characters that it's embarrassing to think they actually "walk among us" and believed this heist would have a positive ending. One of the worst movies we've seen this year; we wasted our money and over 2 hrs of our time.

American Animals manages to create characters that the audience finds despicable but also find relatable and understand why this group of people committed the crimes that they did. The film does this by setting itself up like a heist movie until the heist happens and seemingly everything that could go wrong does go wrong. The movie is perfectly executed brings up some interesting topics and is probably the best movie I've seen so far this year.
