What money can't buy.
johnny-pienaar5 July 2021
Ring of Beasts, apart from its brilliant and genuine heart. Is a wound of humanity, slowly the blood warms the skin, as it builds, no roar, the gentle unending power of a moment of truth.

Gushes through our emotions. That. That moment. No money can buy.

The Remus and Romulus legend rebooted
AlbertV796 July 2021
Excellent South African film takes the classic Remus and Romulus legends and adds a dash of Fight Club and the Jet Li Film Unleashed with powerful performances from Hungani Ndvolu and Cameron Scott as the brothers with Jonathan Pienaar as Nero, the "shepherd" who breeds them into able bodied fighters and yet still has a heart for the two like a father. Definitely worth the 30 minutes running time.

An emotio
calebtjanssens2 June 2024
Ring of Beasts (2021) is a triumph in story-telling. It perfectly depicts the animalistic side of humanity in the most heart-breaking way imaginable.

Viewers will be left with a gut-wrenching feeling questioning the fragility of the human experience and what it means to truly fight for your life.

Despite the 30 minute run time, the pacing is handled well and all the characters have their motivations fully realized and their development never feel rushed or neglected.

Congratulations to the team for bringing such an incredible world to life. South Africa has a bright future if this is the quality of work we can expect.
