Verdict on Hundreds of Beavers
Hundreds of Beavers is a comedy following a hapless salesman trying to survive in the wilderness. He must learn to hunt but finds himself dealing with a horde of beavers that want revenge. It leads to him needing to figure out how to deal with the problem if he is going to survive.
If you were ever going to see a live-action Looney Tunes-styled movie. This is the movie to watch. It is what makes this movie so great, the wacky, cartoonish comedy throughout. This is shot to embrace that idea and bring in extra laughs. There is nearly a laugh a minute, with the wacky plans coming together or failing. It is genius to pull this off and you won’t forget what you have just watched.
Where to Watch
Hundreds of Beavers will be in UK & Irish cinemas from 9th July.
Final Thoughts – Hundreds of Beavers is the Looney Tunes on steroids.
