In which the Mister joins me in reviewing ANIMAL KINGDOM (2010), from writer/director David Michôd. The story follows seventeen year-old Josh "J" Cody (James Frecheville) after his mother's death, as he moves in with his estranged, crime-family grandmother and her three volatile sons in Melbourne. J is quickly drawn into their dangerous underworld, which is increasingly under scrutiny from both corrupt and determined police. As tensions escalate and violence erupts, J finds himself caught between loyalty to his ruthless family and his own survival.. The film clocks in at 1 h and 53 m, is rated R and is available on The Roku Channel and Tubi but also available to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
