      Ty N It's brimming with its own dark energy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/24 Full Review nefasto r Surreal, independent Catalan film that stayed with me much longer than expected. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review jake s An intensely eerie, Gun Van Sant-esque, Spanish version of "Ted". So crazy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member "Animals" is about adolescent's anxiety of coming-of-age, life taking-off rather than simply a 'gay movie'. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Como guion, excepcional! Las actuaciones (especialmente la chica que salio en la serie EL BARCO y la colaboracion de mi idolo Martin Freeman como maestro de ingles de esa high school llena de conflictos) estuvieron fuera de liga! La simbologia detras de cada personaje entrelazada con el aspecto animal me parecio increible y surreal (very well done really!). Sinceramente mis respetos a esta produccion, al fotografo, editor de video, iluminador, vestuarista, el titerero (VFX y digo titerero porque el oso en un momento dado se ve que fue manejado). Todos estuvieron fenomenales, parfait! Loved it! I hope it had win something on the festivals it was in and is still in! (right now I think it will be out in Russia this 2013!). I'm glad I was lucky to see this film and will recommend it because it's a movie that blows open minds trully! Yes, it's a movie that must be seen with an open mind, clear view and yes, if you know or have past for any of this situations, you will love it and will understand what this characters are passing by, including the principal one "Pol"(character/role). AU REVOIR MES AMIS DU 7th L'ART! PD: Why spanglish? Because this movie I think it was in Catalan, but saw it in CASTELLANO (SPAIN accent, or one of their languages, since for them is not accent at all, but for me it is, es un revolu, ignore it). Anyway, because I want it to write it in spanglish for a spanish movie and my spanish friends :) - February 23, 2013. If you are in Russia this year, and have a moment, see this movie when it comes out in February 28, 2013. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com A nightmarish coming-out tale, the strange and surreal take a subdued backseat to dry humor, though a prescient uneasiness always seems to gnaw at the outskirts of the action. Aug 22, 2019 Full Review Deirdre Crimmins Film Thrills I typically have to put a lot of effort into caring about teenagers, it is easy to care about Pol. He isn't lost, of trying to find himself like many predictable teens in films, but rather he is curious and along for the ride when it comes to his time. Aug 21, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
