Edgy

About This Movie

So, Edgy (2022) is an interesting little piece in the animation realm. You’ve got this character, Edgy, who just doesn’t mesh with his blue block world. It’s like he’s an odd puzzle piece, which really sets the tone for the film. The atmosphere is quite surreal, almost whimsical, but there’s a deeper undercurrent of feeling out of place, which I think many can relate to. The pacing is steady, allowing you to soak in the visuals – and oh, those blocky landscapes are quite striking in a minimalist sort of way. It’s not just about the visuals, though; the themes of identity and belonging resonate throughout. I mean, it’s not your typical animation, and that’s what makes it distinctive, really.
