Fierce

About This Movie

So, 'Fierce' (2017) directed by Izù Troin is an interesting take on the animation genre. It’s not your typical colorful children's film; there's a dark, tense atmosphere that runs through it. The story follows a corporate executive who suddenly finds himself in a perilous situation—being hunted in a forest. I mean, that’s a pretty unique premise for an animated feature. The pacing keeps you on edge, with moments of quiet dread punctuated by sudden action sequences. The animation itself is distinctive, blending stylized visuals with some practical effects that enhance the tension. The voice performances convey a range of emotions; you really feel for the protagonist as he navigates this surreal nightmare. It's a fresh perspective on survival themes, something you don’t see often in animation.
