Firstly, the visuals. Everything is visually gorgeous and well designed, from Bridgetown (think Victorian Venice) to the ships to the ocean. A lot of care was taken in the actual animation (i.e. Movement) of all of these elements. The waves and spray of the ocean look like they're from a documentary, the swaying of the ship looks truly forceful and the destruction of the town is full of debris and dust. Not to mention a clever little scene involving a rope and a coconut tree. This gives the entire film an immersive feeling and really raises the stakes as we can truly appreciate how powerful the forces of nature are.

Secondly, the dialogue was great. A lot of the film is just bickering between the sailor and the young child, which showed off their personalities and never got annoying. Every character in this film has such a distinctive personality that it's like we know them in real life.

Thirdly, it's not a very original story. Like many others, I thought of How to Train Your Dragon halfway through watching, as the characters and overall storyline are similar. Does this film add much to improve on that inspiration? Beyond the change in setting, not really. One glaring flaw is the the dragons in How to Train Your Dragon have much more personality, while the beasts in this film are quite tepid.

Overall, a good film. I still rated it 7/10. But it could have been higher if it differentiated itself from previous films and had a more compelling ending.

There's nothing like a good story at sea! And this is the kind of movie you hope is as good as it looks. And to me, it delivered.

From the impressive physics, beautiful art direction, and immaculate visual execution.. to a proper story with a good message (and symbolism), charming and colorful characters, and dialogue that is never wasted or unnecessary. In fact, there's a lot of appreciated visual storytelling.. Just one look or one scene, and you can easily put yourself in the shoes of the cast. And while there is little to be said that hasn't been said before, it manages to create a bountiful world and story worth watching!

People might compare it to a certain Dragon film.. but that doesn't diminish the value of this one. Personally, I liked this one best, but I'm glad there's just more "colors" to enjoy for everyone. I only wonder if we'll see more of it, though I don't think we should. But one rarely ever knows what we want, until we are surprised with it.

As the movie said, "I have everything I need right here."

If it was a Disney movie, everyone would be talking about this movie, but unfortunately, not a lot of people saw this movie. For me, I saw the trailer by chance on YouTube, so I was interested. It is a very fun movie with amazing animation and a great story.

Okay. This story has been seen before. A clear example is How to train your dragon. But what is questionable is not precisely that, but the reasons why this argument must be seen again and again. There are traditions around the world that are often ruthless with the animal world. Things that today have no logic or coherent explanation other than the mere fact of belonging to a certain culture. Whaling in Asia, bullfighting in Spain, rodeos in Chile and much more. Traditions cannot be sustained over time only by honoring our ancestors. If we are damaging what surrounds us, it must not continue. The message of this film is very clear.

Speaking of the technical aspects of the film, it is an animation that stands out for its realism and textures within an animated world. The new technologies, which are not so new anymore, allow a beautiful hyper-realism that fills each plane with subtleties. The characters could have had better kinetics and gesticulation, especially in moments where the emotions were more extreme, but considering the audience it was addressed to, it is something that is forgiven.

Entertaining, great message, good voice acting (it was weird hearing The Butcher stop a monster from being killed), and great aesthetics.

Totally recommended.

'The Sea Beast' features incredible animation, and some of the most realistic animated characters (humans) I've ever seen - with regards to appearance and proportion. Jacob is also a rather sexy animated creation, mind you!

Speaking of Jacob, he is one of the film's protagonists. As a youngster, he was rescued by Captain Crow and has been living with him ever since. They are monster hunters. Fresh on the trail of the elusive Red Bluster, Captain Crow abandons the mission (against his will) to save a ship under attack by a sea monster.

The Royals pay Captain Crow to hunt sea monsters, but when he fails to capture the Red Bluster on his latest mission, they inform him they will no longer pay for hunters. Instead, they built their own ship, and the King challenges Captain Crow to see who would be the first to capture the Red Bluster.

An orphan, Maisie, who's parents were killed by a sea monster, stows away on Captain Crow's ship and join them on their adventure. The film's first half was mature, with action, adventure and even suspense all the way. It had an incredible sense of realism until that defining moment (almost exactly at the halfway mark) when it suddenly reduced the film to a 'cute' kid's adventure.

After that 'Pinocchio' moment (yeah, you'll recognize it when you see it!), the characters suddenly resorted to silly actions typical of animated films aimed at a younger demographic, and the suspense made way for humour (even slapstick). The believability was completely gone with the feared Red Bluster now being 'adorable'. The film even had a 'How to train your Dragon' character, Blue, acting almost exactly as Toothless.

The film nevertheless remained exciting (although not as much as the first half), and it certainly was entertaining.

The story it self was great for me, they cover all of the aspect, bravery, comfort zone and friendship....

That last scene also have powerfull feels. Good job, really good job,,love it 😌

This is a fantastic movie for all ages. While oversimplified, this kind of story can only be so complex to work as what it is. I thought the animation was especially well done, because capturing the physics of the ocean, ships and objects together is super tricky. The girl's voice didn't really work for me (too young maybe) and some of the dialog could've been better,, but overall this is very entertaining moment to moment. Nice job!

If you or your children enjoy monsters and sea battles this is the movie for you. Someone referred to it as "how to train your dragon sea addition" and I would completely agree.

As an adult I was entertained throughout. Plenty of laughs and valuable lessons demonstrated within the plot points. Immediately after it finished it was requested that we watch it again.

There are a few moments of bloody fight scenes and some words that I would consider inappropriate for my 6 year old, but overall it was a good movie.

Stunningly beautiful and colourful. Attention to detail in graphics is amazing. A story about befriending assumed enemies and leaving behind a generations long cycle of vengeance in exchange for peace. Effortless story telling. Funny, but in a warm fuzzy way, not over the top.

This is so cute! Amazing animation, great voice acting, good premise and just all around gorgeous! I loved this movie so much! I loved how sweet and adventurous Maisie was! Kudos to the voice actor they did an amazing job portraying Maisie's character! Red was perfectly cute and scary. The water scenes in the beginning with the sea monsters was actually quite frightening. Maybe it's just because I'm afraid of getting lost at sea or in space and being swallowed whole by a ginormous beast. I was watching the movie and I was like is that Karl Urban? And it is!!

Pirates of the Caribbean meets How To Train Your Dragon in this simple, sweet & sumptuously animated sea voyage that's crafted with sincerity & rendered with finesse. The Sea Beast is a fascinating story about fantastic beasts & sailors who venture to find them and makes for one surprisingly delightful adventure-fantasy that packs no shortage of heart, heroics & humanity.

Co-written & directed by Chris Williams, the story takes its inspiration from several well-known sources and mashes them together to come up with its amusing premise. What makes it worth viewing & investing into however are the colourful set of characters who are scripted with care, bestowed with proper arcs & exhibit strong personalities. And it's their relationships that drives the plot forward.

The animation is rich in detail & gorgeous to look at and also gets much of the oceanic physics right. Add to that, the picture is breezily paced and its moments of action also carry that sense of awe & wonder that its vibrant score complements beautifully. Still, it fails to stick the landing as its simplistic themes & easily resolved conflicts only hurt its emotional impact and prevent it from realising its true potential.

Overall, The Sea Beast is a thoroughly fun, consistently entertaining & mostly satisfying offering that promises an enjoyable time to its viewers & delivers it effectively. Despite the familiar beats, there is a freshness to it but its last act also needed extra polish as there was more up for grabs than what the story eventually settles for. Nevertheless, the positives outweigh the negatives by a big margin and it scores better marks than anticipated.

This film tries very hard to create the correct "modern" eighteenth century world filled with equality and sea faring adventures for all, and it just feels like it tries too hard and steps over the line of disbelief too many times.

The look of the film's world is at times very realistic to the whaling days of yore, yet the ships crew is a combination of men and women which jars with any who have seen films such as "Master and Commander", "In the Heart of the Sea" or "Moby Dick" in many of its iterations. But, hey, this is a new world for all kids who like animation, not our old one for boys from the previous century, so put aside your history and just go with it. Which I tried to do, but when the little orphan girl starts to dominate and lead the story, achieving things or understanding things without any justifiable reason, such as the red beast's true motivation and befriending it for no reason given on the red beasts part, my suspension of disbelief burst and I sank to the bottom of ocean in boredom.

There is action and danger, great sea battles, great design (although the red beast felt too simplistic compared to other elements in the film) and a rousing music score, just not enough humour, and too much convenience with the little too cute blue monster pet/friend of the little girl. The end confrontation scene was just too unrealistic for a world based on a monarchical society.

The story is exactly similar to, how to train your dragon, in the Sinbad legend of the seven seas. I like that but the whole story was predictable, even beast reminds me of train your dragon, if the story was different it cloud be much better, overall recommend it.

• Almost identical plot to How to train your dragon
• Fewer beasts(only about 4). The main one even has similar design and personality with Toothless.

• Ending is cringy, stupidly simple.

In summary, a poor stolen version of How to train your dragon. Well done Netflix, you thief.

Unlike some people here, that clearly need to upgrade or properly setup their tv, say, this is another step up for graphics. You can take it from someone that has seen and loved animated movies for a long time, this is amazing.

The lighting and reflections, specially through hair. The fabrics on cloth's, reflections in a puddle of water on the deck, different collouring throughout the day, underwater scenes and so on. It really pops off your tv. I would especially recommend an oled for this.

Besides all the graphical splendor, the story is compelling and bold. A mixture of Moana and Raya and the dragon. Liked the story, loved the graphics!

What's the use of great graphics if the storyline is so predictable?

A great play will be great if played in a yard. It will be greater if played on Broadway.

A mediocre script will remain mediocre no matter what.

This has the feel of a recent Disney Animated film, which is definitely a compliment. From a story that has some real weight to it, to a tiny, cute creature that never fails to provide genuine laughs, Chris Williams really has it all down from his time directing some of Disney's best animated films.

I was surprised by the route they took with the story, as I thought it would be a simple beast hunting plot. The Sea Beast has some real How to Train Your Dragon vibes and it honestly worked for me. It hits a lot of the expected story beats, but when your film is this delightful, you really don't mind. I hope Netflix continues to produce this kind of quality animated fare.

Karl Urban is incredible even in kids films which is impressive since he's been Billy Butcher in The Boys on Amazon which is very adult compared to this not related at all just nice to see a tamer character that is humble in The Sea Beast. Wonderful bonding throughout and a pleasant surprise of a great creature. One of the most lovely kids filmed fairly deserving of nominations despite not winning it's great fun and earlier I saw Knock at the Cabin which was disturbing nice to see something delightful afterwards, would highly recommend this charming adventure! Beautiful colors and solid experience for anyone interested the pace stays really smooth throughout.

Set in a world of fantastic Sea Beasts, orphan Maisie Brumble (Zaris-Angel Hator) grows up admiring the heroic exploits of monster hunters in various books with no ship of monster hunters more revered than Captain Augustus Crow (Jared Harris) of the ship The Inevitable who is respected by his crew especially Jacob Holland whom Crow rescued as a boy and views as an adopted son. Following the Inevitable's successful hunt of a sea beast, the King (Jim Carter) and Queen (Doon Mackichan) of the empire they serve are displeased with Crow for having abandoned pursuit of sea beast, The Red Bluster, in order to rescue fellow monster hunters from another sea beast. Declaring the age of hunters over and assigning Admiral Hornagold (Dan Stevens) the task of bringing down Red Bluster with the royal frigate The Imperator, Crow and his crew soon setout in a race to bring down Red Bluster to prove the age of hunters is still alive. Maisie stows away having lost her monster hunter parents on board the ship The Monarch, and Crow allows her to stay despite Jacob's objections but eventually Maisie and Jacob discover the true nature of the sea beasts isn't aligned with what they've been told.

The Sea Beast is the latest animated film from Netflix and fourth directorial effort from Chris Williams following his work on Bolt, Big Hero 6, and co-directing Moana. Williams directs from a story he co-wrote with Nell Benjamin and the film in many ways feels like a spiritual successor to Williams' Moana with the seafaring setting and emphasis on adventure/exploration making them feel like cinematic cousins. While Williams does revisit familiar territory, he does so in a rousing fashion that harkens back to classic swashbucklers and seafaring stories that results in a great animated adventure.

What really stood out to me with The Sea Beast was the dedication to creating what looks and feels like a livable and believable world. Too often these days a lot of fantasy films, especially animated ones, will feel the need to insert more contemporaneous dialogue into the film rather than tailoring the words for the world. Many recent Disney films have had this issue for me such as Raya and the Last Dragon where there were multiple utterances of the phrase "Dragon Nerd" that felt way too contemporary for the setting presented. The Sea Beast does a nice job of sidestepping that trope and I was appreciative of how the screenwriters avoided contemporary terminology or slang (with the exception of a very subtle nod to Xenomorphs of all things in a dialogue exchange, didn't see that coming) and the actors felt like they were inhabiting written roles rather than presenting themselves as is.

The characters are all nicely rounded with Karl Urban playing dashing hero Jacob Holland whose appearance harkens back to swashbucklers like Errol Flynn's Captain Blood in movement and design and despite possessing an edge, the movie gives him a lot of humanity and vulnerability with some great scenes between him and Jared Harris' Captain Crow. Jared Harris is also quite good as Captain Crow and there's definitely more than a little bit of Captain Ahab in the character as he carries a deep seated grudge against Red Bluster but like Jacob the character also gets some solid moments of humanity which adds to the sadness and rage that motivates his character. Zaris-Angel Hator does well in her first starring role having previously only done supporting work in series such as Black Earth Rising and she does a solid job of bringing enthusiasm and joy to this character which is also counterbalanced by uncertainty that leads her to question everything she's learned about the sea beasts, it's a really solid performance from Hator and I look forward to seeing more of her in the future.

The story is made from familiar parts but it does a good job of refining and remixing the elements to put its own stamp on it. The plot involving a multigeneration feud between the world of man and the world of mystical beasts will undeniably invite comparisons to something like How to Train your Dragon, but the movie does a solid job of making this story about the cost of hatred based on lies and in the age of disinformation that's a valuable lesson to not just children but adults about questioning the source of those want you to be afraid of something. The way Jacob and Maisie go through this world coming across the various wonders leads itself to many breathtaking moments that left me with a sense of genuine awe.

The animation is great with solid character and creature designs as well as exquisitely detailed rendering in the environment. Despite Chris Williams' Moana already making the water and sand effects look pretty impressive, Williams somehow manages to even up that as from the first shot where we see young Jacob adrift on a violent sea with burning ship wreckage in the background, the visuals are not only technically impressive but really pop with key moments that emphasize the scale of the sea beasts or the lush nature of the environments.

If I were to criticize The Sea Beast, I would say it's first act is maybe a bit longer than it needed to be. The movie commits a lot of time to its worldbuilding with where the beasts are, how they're tracked, and the culture of monster hunting, but then there's other parts of the story that feel extraneous such as Dan Stevens' very brief turn as Admiral Hornagold who's positioned early on as being a competitor to Captain Crow for Red Bluster, but after his introduction he disappears for most of the movie and when he does come back he's so inconsequential you think "why did this character need to be here?". Dan Stevens is a terrific actor and always welcome, but he does so little in the role it seems like a bit of a waste to even have him here. There's also some odd underdevelopments in other areas such as a bargain Captain Crow makes with a shady character or the King and Queen who become more important in the third act aren't given names, but these are minor nitpicks in the grand scheme of things.

The Sea Beast is a solid animated adventure from Netflix and continues Chris Williams' impressive resume as a director. While the story hits familiar beats, it has a remarkable dedication to building a world and sticking by that world without feeling the need to undermine itself with self-aware humor or purposeful anachronisms or contemporary dialogue. Some plot points feel a little extraneous or could've used some fine tuning, but it's a solidly entertaining adventure I can highly recommend.

This movie is great and amazing you might get a little fimiliar with the story because it took inspiration from the story of HTTYD which I didn't like at start but by the end of the movie I was happy that this movie was made .

This movie might not be one of my top 15 atleast but it's still enjoyable the characters are great the Scottish accent is great here I like the vibe that it gives, ships and pirates and monsters that vibe is so cool ! And one thing I loved and I don't think anyone mentioned it about this movie is the colour red in it , they didn't choose the normal looking red they chose a great shade of it which makes this movie non forgettable for me ! I suggest watching this !

The sea beast, while it has its charms, it didn't fully captivate me. The film excels in its visuals, with beautifully animated seascapes and imaginative sea creatures that are a joy to behold. The animation is vibrant and dynamic, and it's clear that a lot of effort went into creating a visually stunning world. The character designs are distinctive and lively, adding a lot of personality to the story.

The concept is engaging, focusing on the high-seas adventures of a young hero and their quest to prove themselves. The themes of bravery, family, and discovery are woven throughout the narrative, giving it a solid emotional core. The voice acting is also a highlight, with performances that bring warmth and depth to the characters. The lead does a great job of conveying the character's journey and growth.

However, the film's storytelling leaves something to be desired. The plot can feel a bit predictable and follows a somewhat familiar formula, which makes it less surprising and engaging than it could be. Some of the character development feels a bit rushed or shallow, and there are moments where the pacing drags, making the story feel longer than it needs to be.

Additionally, while the humor is generally enjoyable, there are times when it feels a bit forced or doesn't quite hit the mark. The film's attempts to blend action with emotional moments can sometimes feel uneven, leading to a tone that shifts awkwardly between lighthearted and serious.

Overall, it's an entertaining watch with impressive animation and a heartwarming message, but it doesn't quite stand out in terms of originality or depth. It's a good choice for a family movie night, especially if you appreciate well-crafted visuals and adventurous tales, but it might not leave a lasting impression beyond its impressive look.
