While the film is certainly a testament to nature’s enduring majesty and mystery, it’s just as much a monument to Brad Pitt’s movie-star magnetism, undiminished after more than three decades perched atop Hollywood’s A-list.

Terrific when Ayer trusts in spare suspense and natural elements, creating some incredibly tense scenes of endurance. Such confidence and quiet doesn’t last all the way through the endeavor.

The mix of danger, stress, natural comedy, and an unbreakable bond all work together to build a narrative that will lift your spirits, stomp on your heart, punch you in the jaw, and then wrap you in a warm hug.

8/10

The lead actor in the new survival drama Heart of the Beast possesses rugged, movie star good looks, does almost all his own stunts, and delivers an understated, deeply moving performance. Brad Pitt is also in this movie.
