The Feast aims to be a strange, cold and slow film.
It's a horror story, but after a few minutes you'll realize that its proposal is not mainstream horror, although you won't see a complicated story either.

The Feast aims to be a strange, cold and slow film.
It's a horror story, but after a few minutes you'll realize that its proposal is not mainstream horror, although you won't see a complicated story either.

What happens here, it's that it takes a long time to start making combustion, and when you get to that point, it doesn't feel so necessary to reach the ending.

And this happens mostly because, as in almost any situation, when you tease too much and don't go all the way, you won't get anything out of your sleeve that's worthwhile and saves the situation.

Feast starts off as a visual picture hoping to reel it's audience in with a setting that isn't explored much and characters you will almost immediately forget. The build up across the duration of the film does not reward it's viewers withFeast starts off as a visual picture hoping to reel it's audience in with a setting that isn't explored much and characters you will almost immediately forget. The build up across the duration of the film does not reward it's viewers with it's cheap grand finale. The editing and Cinematography are a big blunder here as well. Keylighting in certain scenes do not tell the audience what they should be looking out for and a good example is the "cell" that this family uses to "relax".

Most of the script does nothing for the story or character progression until the middle/end of the movie. Even when we arrive to the climax everything is just rushed and thrown together and it's visuals do not meet the script.

While I compare this movie to the likes of "Lamb", this film is far less effective in it's message and really lacking on its ending.

Overall slow and drawn out movie which you immediately realize is a heavy handed environmental critique piece.
