All fire, little heart

 

Fireheart (2022)


Directed by Theodore Ty & Lauren Zeitoun this film has voices from Olivia Cooke, Kenneth Branagh, William Shatner, Laurie Holden and Mara Junot. In 1930s New York a 16 year old girl wants to be the first female firefighter.


As animated kids films go this one is fairly entertaining if somewhat predictable. The major disappointment here is that the themes of female empowerment the script is built on never go anywhere interesting and are possibly undercut by the third act reveals. Pixar lite at the best I am afraid.


3/5
