Frightening but Astonishing

Rating: 8/10 (31 May 2019)

Frightening but astonishing. The pace of the film was nicely designed. The actings and set designs are so well done that for so many moments, I started to question if whether this is real or not. The story is nicely developed that it is not too fast or too slow. The pace of plotting the story allows the film to nicely give each character enough background stories for audience to feel fully immersed. This film was recommended to me after watching "Liyana" with friend. In contrast of "Liyana", "Beasts of Nation" showed a different perspective and eye into a similar situation and living environment. "Liyana" used a more gentle and settle way whereas "Beasts of No Nation" brutally displays the crucial real. Thank you filmmakers for making the decision of not trying to be nice toward audiences and viewers. This is what made this film frightening but astonishing and unforgettable.
