Beast (I) (2022)
5/10
A bit of action mixed with family drama
16 September 2022
This film has little action but it is effective, in addition to having a story with a lot of family drama.

What ends up ruining this movie is that there is not enough of either, neither drama nor action, there is very little of that, leaving several parts with nothing to offer. The suspense is good, the director knows how to convey that to the audience, but the performances don't really help the credibility of this suspense, it doesn't seem like they're scared to death, the lack of a better structured script makes the movie fall flat at times and, at crucial moments, no longer recovers. The action scenes look decent, the special effects are good, and while the ending feels rushed, it's compelling. Also, in some parts, the family drama is in the background and is no longer given much importance after the first act, this turns in something unnecessary.

It is not the best film of its kind, but it has some things that favor it when it comes to feeling the suspense and tension, even so the poorly worked script makes the characters not so memorable and makes the story have little impact on the audience.
