Beasts of the Southern Wild Blu-Ray Review



Synopsis: Teeming with magic, beauty and pure joy, this crowd-pleasing winner at the Sundance Film Festival has emerged as one of the year's most acclaimed films. Newcomer Quvenzhan‚ Wallis delivers an "Oscarr-worthy performance" (Philadelphia Daily News) as Hushpuppy, the six-year-old force of nature in an isolated bayou community. When her tough but loving father Wink (Dwight Henry) succumbs to a mysterious malady, the fierce and determined girl bravely sets out on a journey to the outside world. But Hushpuppy's quest is hindered by a "busted" universe that melts the ice caps and unleashes an army of prehistoric beasts.

Review: Beasts of the Southern wild is one of the most remarkable and unqiue film adventures we've ever had the pleasure of partaking in.  This film is an amazing narrative of the human spirit as we see a ravaged and brutal world through the eyes of magic and wonderment of a young child named Hushpuppy.  This film builds on what Terry Gilliam was doing with Tideland.  We cannot recommend this film enough, its absolutely stunning.

The special features on this blu-ray include: The Making of Beasts of the Southern Wild, Deleted Scenes with Commentary by Director Benh Zeitlin, Auditions, Glory at Sea, Music, The Aurochs and Theatrical Trailer.
