Critics Consensus

Sustaining a zany premise with stylistic bravura and inspired gags, Hundreds of Beavers is a comedic gem that gives a dam.

Leor Galil

Chicago Reader

Cheslik and Tews execute each gag with great force and speed, stringing the scenes together into a coherent story with callbacks and forward momentum that intensifies as the movie barrels along.

It’s been a long time since I was this clueless about what was going to happen next in a film; the feeling was exhilarating.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

It's genuinely quite bananas and it's genuinely quite funny.

Alternate Ending

A movie that just has such a good mood, enough to make it feel like one would have to be a real grouch not to laugh along with its ongoing rush of surreal gags, its flair for stagey artifice, its constant mugging.

Rated: 4/5

In such serious times, such inventive, absorbing silliness is welcome. It took us completely away to a different world with its own (humorous) logic and a plot that didn't require a single word of dialogue. Wonderful!
