American Animals Movie Review. American animals is narrated by the heist's actual participants, and it's brilliantly edited, bringing fascinating layers to the proceedings. You miss the energy but its replaced by something more human.
Four young men mistake their lives for a movie and attempt one of the most audacious heists in u.s. These are essentially hybrid works, deliberately toying. American animals is a 2018 crime docudrama film written and directed by bart layton.
