Soon after, this new nature takes hold and destroys her privileged existence.

In her, she sees a new, irresistibly dangerous predator.

A-
Painterly compositions, operatic violence, and surreal emotional logic overwhelm the audience in twisted worlds that overwhelm first and explain second. Intoxicating as it is visually savage, “Ferine” embraces that philosophy with striking confidence. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey Variety 6d
There’s no great surprise to where things ultimately head, but the last lap or so of a captivity sure to go wrong does work well enough as twisty psychodrama. Go to Full Review
Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com Jul 31
This formal feast feels like empty calories thanks to a script that barely explains what it’s doing, and works a little too opaquely to let you figure out exactly what’s going on from beat to beat. Go to Full Review
Catherine Bray Screen International 6d
Ferine perhaps promises slightly more than it can, in the final analysis, deliver... But in terms of arresting imagery, mood and vibe, it represents an extended trip into visually lush and viscerally juicy territory. Go to Full Review
