A wise old cat helps a young cat solve feline murders in his new neighborhood.

Budd Wilkins

Slant Magazine

Gorgeous, gruesome, and slightly surreal, the German animated feature Felidae examines hefty sociopolitical issues through the lens of familiar genre tropes.

AniMat's Review (YouTube)

Everything you’ve heard about this movie is true. It is frightening, it is incredibly disturbing, and for some, it can be quite traumatizing. But you know what? At least for me, this movie is also pretty good.

Rated: 8/10

Alternate Ending

A weird combination of dazzling spectacle and spiritual bleakness; snappy talking animal satire and heavy moral inquiry.

Rated: 4/5

Felidae is a great film, if you like Mystery and horror I recommend watching this film, how they have adapted the book into a film with a great art style and story is amazing, I rate this film a 10/10 for how good it is

It's a cat...solving mysteries...in German. Not suitable in the slightest for children. Great movie to watch if you like animated films/wanna explore an array of foreign animated films. Twisted content, but more of a thriller than a horror. And I get scared easily, but I like Felidae; it's pretty cool.

Definitely not a kid's movie, but kind of interesting to watch. Some of the science parts were a bit confusing, and it was similar in nature to the human of Plague Dogs and Secret of NIMH. Had the bloody darkness of Watership Down too.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
