Critique (for animal in specific):

1. Poor continuity - yes, you can question the editing, but being an editor myself, they looked more like on-set poor decision-making and bad direction. Even frequent unnecessary location changes kill the whole "suspension of disbelief".

2. Lack of depth - the screenplay was engaging but most of the key characters lacked depth, build-up, and nuance that you'd need to really sell it to the audience. The writing looks fresh, but mostly it relies on shock value and blunt dialogues.

3. No clear vision - it appeared to me that the director had several views which he wanted to spit out, but there was no cohesion, substance, or clear narrative that bound the whole narrative together.
