*Certified Fresh 85% and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 94% on RottenTomatoes.com* Audience Says - Heart of the Beast is a thrilling wilderness journey about a man and his best friend, balancing its rugged, testosterone-driven edge with emotional heft that resonates. Critics Consensus - A rigorously entertaining adventure story told through a spartan script and memorable set pieces, Heart of the Beast pays rousing tribute to man's best friend. TOP CRITIC, Wendy Ide - “This is a stirring story of canine courage and sacrifice that packs an unexpectedly powerful emotional punch.” TOP CRITIC, Soren Andersen – “Man and dog and their connection are the elements that grip the audience and never let go from beginning to end. Thanks to that, this “Beast” is singularly moving.” TOP CRITIC, Thelma Adams - “Pitt, carrying his deep wounds like a heavy government-issue backpack, is compelling as he performs he-man things to stay alive, but more than that, he demonstrates love and the will to survive for his best, most trusted companion.” TOP CRITIC, Peter Travers - “Ex-soldier Brad Pitt and a combat dog, both with PTSD, star in a survival story filled with fun, ferocity and genuine feeling. And the dog does not die!” After a harrowing plane crash, Special Forces officer James Belmont (Brad Pitt) and his combat dog, Odin, find themselves stranded deep in the Alaskan wilderness. Together, they are forced into a brutal fight for survival against the elements.

*Opening Worldwide and Here at The Roxy Theatres on Friday, October 16th!* Tomato Fresh on RottenTomatoes.com TOP CRITIC, Wendy Ide - “The humour, like the mossy tones and wintry light of this version, is more muted than that of Lee’s film, but Marianne delivers many of the most satisfying lines.” TOP CRITIC, Derek Smith – “What makes the film a fresh, if not altogether revelatory, take on the material is the intimacy and sincerity with which it presents Elinor and Marianne’s parallel journeys.” TOP CRITIC, Anna Stafford - “The bond between the two elder Dashwoods proves the film’s real love story, a tender, tumultuous sisterhood that both actors clearly treat as the main event.” TOP CRITIC, William Bibbiani - “Georgia Oakley’s adaptation of Jane Austen’s timeless, beloved 1811 novel is enchanting and beautiful, just as it should be. It’s also, in its earthy and humorous way, intensely riveting, which is also as it should be.” Sisters Elinor (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Marianne Dashwood (Esme Creed-Miles) must leave their Sussex estate and move in with a distant relative, facing romance and money troubles. Based on the novel by Jane Austen.
