Bestia India

...not only one of the best movies of 2024, but also one of the most thrillingly unexpected.

We are on the ground, in the middle of the action – a sweatily uncomfortable place to be, even before the supporting cast gets mauled.

So many of The Beast’s visions are impossible to shake, from a submerged basement flecked with floating dead rats to a futuristic nightclub that reinvents itself every night in homage to a different year.

The key to enjoying “Beast” is accepting its inelegant, inconsistent, and often insane terms and conditions.

...a fun, silly, well-made film about a man punching a big cat.

An ambitious, compelling monster of a movie.
