Critics Consensus

Sustaining a zany premise with stylistic bravura and inspired gags, Hundreds of Beavers is a comedic gem that gives a dam.

Cheslik and Tews execute each gag with great force and speed, stringing the scenes together into a coherent story with callbacks and forward momentum that intensifies as the movie barrels along.

It’s been a long time since I was this clueless about what was going to happen next in a film; the feeling was exhilarating.

It's genuinely quite bananas and it's genuinely quite funny.

4/5

Bringing together everything from German Expressionist visuals to Looney Tunes violence and comedy that wouldn’t feel out of place in a Charlie Chaplin film, Hundreds of Beavers is a triumphant low-budget fever dream

4/5

A movie that just has such a good mood, enough to make it feel like one would have to be a real grouch not to laugh along with its ongoing rush of surreal gags, its flair for stagey artifice, its constant mugging.
