The Beaver

This was such an amazing movie, I just can't explain it, but I'll do my best. This movie is a very serious movie about Schizophrenia. It has very mature themes that include suicide, schizophrenia, and much much more. It has very little violence, but the violence that is there can be quite disturbing depending on the way you look at it. If I say anything about this movie, it kind of ruins it, but its definitely worth a watch. Some other movies that are a good watch are Fury, Interstellar, Hotel Rwanda, and Inception

The beaver is recommended for a 14 and over to watch this movie because it is a weird movie about adopting a puppet

Parents must know that The Beaver is a movie that is very mature and serious, this is not comedy at all or light hearted entertainment. It tells the story of Mel Gibson's character walter, a man suffering from crippling depression. He talks and expresses himself through the beaver puppet. This movie may seem strange and wild, but it actually has incredible depth and deep meaning. Jodie foster brilliantly directs this and it is definitely worth seeing! Teens 14 and up though due to tough, mature themes.

The Beaver is one of the most bizarre films I have ever seen. But Mel Gibson excels along with Jodie Foster, who did good as a director and Anton Yelchin and Jennifer Lawrence gave great performances as well as having decent chemistry. Grade: B.

I hope the title made you laugh because "The Beaver" is a rather depressing movie about depressed people being...yeah, depressed. Gibson channeling the beaver is cute for a while, but when the beaver "overtakes" him things take a turn for the worst. Foster and Lawrence shine in their roles, but too many things are rushed, and the pacing crumbles. Still worth it to see Gibson talk with an Australian beaver puppet, though.

I really dont agree with the review my dad and i watched this and we think its very good, its a somewhat dark but compelling story about a troubled man, teens can handle it.

Terry Gross sparkles! Best line of the movie. The end of The Beaver is very disturbing.

I Have Eight Words For You Parents:"Stupidest Movie I Have Seen In My Life."This Movie Is So Dark,And Just Plain Stupid.Although Mel Gibson Did A Good Role.Jodie Foster Should Not Of Directed And Should Have Took Some Advice By Mel Gibson's Point Of View.

Mel Gibson gives an excellent performance in Jodie Foster's otherwise overwhelmingly disjointed and emotionally confused character drama about a depressed man living through a puppet. As an acting-driven film, "The Beaver" does work really well at points, and there are even some witty moments and a couple of heart-wrenching scenes, but it all ultimately devolves into unsettling darkness and misdirected hell when the third act begins.

this movie about a troubled family (which stars Mel Gibson and was directed by Jodie Foster) is a very strange drama with some comedy elements; it's disturbing in many ways, and while some will find it appalling, others may find it inspiring. A despondent character attempts suicide, and there's a constant, simmering sense of discontent, as well as some moments of fighting and violence. Language includes "s--t," one "f--k," and other words; there's also some teen flirting and minor sex scenes between a husband and a wife. There's one intense scene of drinking, plus prescription drugs and a mention of a teen buying "weed."
