Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by Dustin RANIMATED CAT MURDER MYSTERY. Of course I love it.
User Review - 10/10 by name gReally dramatic, but really really the best film I ever saw. I wouldn't recommend this for young kids let alone teens that can't take gore and blood. The story just all goes together. The killer, the deaths, it all makes sense!!!!! Francis has so much emotion and courage, the only part I didn't really see much from him is how he reacted to Felicity's death, but at least they didn't make him cry about it for the rest of the movie.
User Review - 10/10 by Twilight SA murder mystery starring cats. I for one will say that this is absolutely innovative. Granted that I have never read the original book by Akif Pirincci, I still would say that this is truly a cat thriller. The characters are charming, the plot is involving and the animation is well-paced. Overall, I totally love this movie.
User Review - 10/10 by Filippo GIt's a movie that was made to NOT be successful. An animated crime story with violence, sex, allucinated dreams, racism, all played by cats? World wasn't ready for this in 1994. Watching it now, it's a great movie, it has some minor plot holes and maybe the murderer is a little bit too easy to guess, but the animation is really good, the story is compelling and oniric sequences are really crazy. Just 2 advice: -this is not The Incredible Mouse Detective, it's a real pulp story (no kids allowed) -even if I can't speak german I prefer to watch it in german with sub (really bad english dubbing, sorry)
User Review - 10/10 by Devon AEpic! I recommend to any adult with a strong stomach
User Review - 10/10 by Juli NDeep, insightful, and, darkly funny. Felidae builds plenty of suspense towards the end and offers much payoff.
User Review - 10/10 by Harry MI understand that previous reviewers have already said this, but I'll say it again, for good measure: This movie IS NOT FOR KIDS. Seriously, I'm not joking when I say that this is the most disturbing animated movie I have ever watched. But I don't regret it, as it is also one of the best animated movies I have ever watched. Whilst containing some very disturbing images (especially for cat-lovers), strong language, gore and even a sex scene, Felidae boasts excellent animation, superb voice acting, a gripping plot and interesting characters. A must-see for anyone who enjoys a good murder mystery, except this time told from the viewpoint of a tomcat called Francis.
User Review - 10/10 by Ocram II hate that animation is automatically thought to be for kids,' when that's not always the case. Animation is meant to show something that cannot be shown on film, or would not be best portrayed on film. Felidae is a deep, philosophical, dark and brutal murder story with complex characters and backgrounds. Not by any means should anyone ever describe this as a cartoon. A cartoon is meant to be silly and funny, this is not. This movie isn't a childish animation, it's grimly realistic, stilted, creepily laid out, and has a great deal of uncanny valley that neither live action nor CGI' could ever get. Enough of that, let's get to the good stuff. Felidae is a daring German animated movie yet the vast majority of the English-speaking world has not heard of this. What gives? Of course, since the story is about murder, this film is not your typical family movie... at all. In fact, the violence is probably graphic enough to turn most people away, but it's worth it. The movie begins with Francis, who is gifted with a cleverness beyond that of the typical house cat, moving into a new neighborhood where a feline serial killer appears to be on the loose. While his new friend, a battle-scarred and foul-mouthed tom by the name of Bluebeard, shares the belief of the other cats in the neighborhood that the bloody murders are the work of a human, Francis thinks that the evidence points to another cat, and sets out to sniff out the culprit. His search brings him in contact with a suicidal cat cult who worship a perhaps mythical super-feline martyred at the hands of a sadistic human scientist (and who express their worship through a ritual of mass self-electrocution); and later leads him to discover that the very house he and his owner have moved into may have been the site of the fabled atrocities - which in reality go way beyond what anyone could previously have imagined. Francis is guided in his search by a series of vivid dreams which make up some of Felidae's most memorable and horrifying moments. I DARE anyone who has seen this film to forget the mentally scarring spectacle of a gigantic Gregor Mendel rising up from a huge feline killing field to wield hundreds of mangled cat corpses as puppets. Another disturbing image occurs when Francis and Bluebeard stumble upon an underground catacomb filled with decomposing and skeletal kitty remains, at which point they realize that, contrary to what they thought, the killer they've been tracking is responsible for the murder of, not just several, but hundreds of their brothers and sisters. What will surprise the average viewer is how well the character designs of the cats, and the vividly colored backgrounds, link the violent content. The animation itself is very fluid and during the dream sequences: Holy Crown! What I love about the movie is that the content isn't violence all over the place, but instead, these elements are handled in service to the plot. It is maturely restrained, rather than feeling like it throws these things around merely to show how "dark" it is. This attempt to color violence with art is executed quite well. Oh and you know what is really neat? No tired Disney clichés. Overall, an excellent movie. The pacing is fantastic, the characters fun, and the plot engaging, twisty and compelling. The mature elements are handled smoothly and fit naturally within the plot, and the film does a great job of believably transferring a murder mystery into the realm of animated cats. While I do understand why the movie didn't get a theatrical release(I think the reason is pretty obvious) in America, it is a movie that deserves more attention. Given the high level of artistry of this movie, I'm so glad that Felidae was made in 1994 - rather than today, when it would undoubtedly have been done with CGI. I'm sick of CGI and the medium's post-modern appeal. I'm sick of the way every big film coming out of Hollywood these days rely so much on CGI. Take away the effects and large chunks of the film literally ceases to exist. At cinemas everywhere big event films are constantly trying to one-up each other, and several thousand effect shots are not uncommon in a new movie. Sure, it might be okay for films that are just a series of gags, but as a narrative? Especially one that requires the attention to detail that Felidae does - it's just a distraction. Drawn 2D animation is definitely the right style for creating the kind of reality that's needed to invest in a vision as Felidae. Not only that, but this film should stand as a testament of traditional animation in the face of the cookie-cutter CGI features that hog our theater screens each holiday season.
User Review - 10/10 by Keith WTruly an adult animated film that actually challenges its audience and takes them very seriously. It's so gripping because the tone and imagery setting the tone. Violence, gore, sex, and profanity just took this piece of art to a whole new level and not once did it back down with its material.
User Review - 10/10 by David SDisappoints me how underrated this film is. Very great film. Fantastic animation, very interesting plot, and very interesting action scenes, as well as a very good art style.
