DVD Review: Animal Kingdom

With an impressive ensemble cast, Animal Kingdom looks deeper into the politics behind this family of crime. Violent action scenes are kept to a minimum throughout the film leaving behind a slow, yet powerful look at the gang’s dynamic unraveling. In a dog eat dog world, it is Smurf and her aberrant relationship with her sons who ultimately controls the power struggle within the family.
