Mr. Hughes, who for many years cocreated films with his twin brother, Allen, and here makes his solo feature debut, is a sharp and engaged visual storyteller. It’s a pleasure to see him working in expansive wide-screen, a fitting format for his chops.

In fact, the two stars of Alpha are not Smit-McPhee and the canine actor but Martin Gschlacht and Sandra Granovsky, the film’s cinematographer and editor, respectively.

Throughout Alpha, a sense of modernity is retroactively applied to primitive human society.
