	Fierce Creatures - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fierce Creatures is a 1997 comedy film, John Cleese and company's follow-up to the widely popular A Fish Called Wanda.
		The story is centered on a London zoo which has been recently acquired by Australian businessman Rod McCain (played by Kevin Kline) and put under the charge of Rollo Lee (Cleese).
		Of course, chaos ensues as the zookeepers (including Michael Palin as the insect keeper) protest at the impending loss of their loved, though not man-eating, animal friends.

		He orders them to get rid of the cute and cuddly creatures, claiming that people come to view the creatures that make them fear for their lives.
		They even go as far as disguising some of these sweet creatures as fierce threats, telling Rollo fictional stories about meercats, calling them "the piranhas of the desert." But nothing changes this dogmatic, desperate man’s mind.
		As with "A Fish Called Wanda", big parts of "Fierce Creatures" lives on the great performances of its characters and the undeniable chemistry between those people.

	Fierce Creatures . Tucson Weekly . 01-30-97
		FIERCE CREATURES IS a comedy from some of the folks who brought us the Monty Python TV series and movies.
		With Fierce Creatures and its predecessor, A Fish Called Wanda, Cleese and Palin have left the realm of sketch-based, silly, nonlinear comedy and strayed into the territory of hackneyed romantic comedies.
		Fierce Creatures, on the other hand, would be closer to a fluffed and groomed miniature poodle.

		Fierce Creatures And Now a Word from Our Sponsor Fierce Creatures The people behind Fierce Creatures (starring John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Kline, and Michael Palin) refused to call it a sequel to A Fish Called Wanda -- they insisted it was an "equal." But it isn't.
		Creatures is amusing, but it never approaches the deliriousness of Wanda.
		Fierce Creatures turns into a fairly biting commentary on the ubiquitousness of advertising.

	Filmtracks: Fierce Creatures (Jerry Goldsmith)
		Fierce Creatures: (Jerry Goldsmith) When it was announced that a pseudo-sequel to the modern legend A Fish Called Wanda would be made by the exact same starring and supporting cast, the peasants of the world rejoiced.
		There is really nothing to compare Fierce Creatures to in Goldsmith's accomplishments (except, perhaps, the tango driven 6 Degrees of Separation), for his comedy music usually utilizes an orchestral ensemble of some size.
		For Fierce Creatures, Goldsmith makes use of mostly a quartet of strings (for Cleese' pompous nature), a jazz band, and especially a piano, with little orchestral accompaniment (a few woodwinds, perhaps) or electronic enhancement.

		"Fierce Creatures" apparently began life as a discarded Monty Python skit idea, updated by screenwriters John Cleese and Iain Johnstone to satirize the world of corporate media conglomerates.
		Fiercer creatures of a different sort enter the picture, too: Jamie Lee Curtis as a corporate climber and Kline, again, as the mogul's dull, vain marketing-exec son descend upon the zoo with schemes of their own.
		"Fierce Creatures," which was directed by Robert Young ("GBH" and "Splitting Heirs") with help from Fred Schepisi, who shot a revised finale for the film, is mostly smart enough to stick to pure farce and let its animals take care of their own rights.

		To boost revenues, he begins a "fierce creatures" policy aimed at putting a deadly creature in every cage.
		Fierce Creatures contains several genuinely funny scenes, but the movie works too hard at being zany, and only creates a pre-fabricated brand of off-the-wall humor.

	Penn State Monty Python Society: Fierce Creatures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		While certainly not a bad film, Fierce Creatures is by no means the equal to A Fish Called Wanda that was promised, despite the return of that film’s principal cast and a rather talented supporting cast that includes Ronnie Corbett and Cynthia Cleese.
		The problem with Fierce Creatures, really, is that it seems content to be little more than a manic sex farce with some commentary about corporate greed, even if that means sacrificing an actual story.
		So, in summary, Fierce Creatures is neither sequel nor equal to A Fish Called Wanda...but it might still be worth a couple hours of your time.

	Fierce Creatures
		From the same mischievous minds that brought us A Fish Called Wanda comes Fierce Creatures, a wacky comedy about a wacky group of folks trying to keep a zoo from being closed down due to low profit margins.
		Kevin Klein also stars as Rod's son, Vince, and along with Willa (Jamie Lee Curtis) the marketing whiz, Rollo Lee (John Cleese) the zoo director, and a cast of eager but slightly twisted zookeepers, he turns London's Marwood Zoo into an animal sideshow complete with animatronic pandas, costumed zookeepers, and truly tasteless corporate sponsorships.
		Fierce Creatures is certainly not a movie that sets out to change people's lives or make a difference in the world, but it does succeed in being an often frantic, sometimes raunchy, and generally funny film that makes good use of its cast's talents.
