Plot:

My Review:
This is a crime-drama centered around Josh Cody(James Frecheville) who after the loss of his mother, has to live with his mother's family whom he had not seen for many years. His uncles who are well known Armed Robbers are being surveilled by the cops. How drastically does the life of a young boy changes due to his relatives is beautifully explained in this film. Det. Leckie(Guy Pierce) who is a veteran in solving armed robbery is brought into the case who targets the weaklink in the Animal Kingdom to capture the Lions. What happens to Josh?? What happens to his uncles?? is the film. Frecheville has given an extra-ordinary performance though he is a novice in Hollywood. I also liked the roles of Leckie and Barry. The film moves very slowly and has a good climax in the end. The screenplay was good for such a well written plot.
My Rating: 8.7/10 Recommendation: Must Watch it to understand how a single unforseen event could change your life completely.
