The Strange Little Cat Ratings & Reviews
IONCINEMA.com
Jordan M. Smith
Zürcher's ability to convey this structural balance in tandem with the emotional counterbalance presumably inherent in age is what makes The Strange Little Cat an oddly beautiful mystery, brilliantly alive.
Way Too Indie
C.J. Prince
It's an enigma of a film, something so simple on the surface and yet every scene feels like something isn't quite right.
The Film Stage
Peter Labuza
A feature that will require multiple viewings, but ones which will pass by briskly and pleasurably so.
Newcity
Ray Pride
Its tasty strangeness, beginning with the characters' behavior and extending to jolting play with editing, framing and sound design, leaves a lovely savor and a lyrical aftertaste.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Nothing much happens. A cat makes a move and purrs. Someone is reprimanded for not tucking in his shirt.
The Dissolve
Scott Tobias
"...a beautiful, mysterious, beguiling cinematic doodle, and an absolute master class in mise-en-scène, unfolding in odd, fragmented frames and precisely choreographed movement within those frames."
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
From the very first shot, we are clued in that there are depths of strangeness to be plumbed in even the smallest and most banal interactions.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
A radically disorienting, disarmingly odd first feature from Ramon Zürcher.
Artforum
Melissa Anderson
Zürcher's talent for illuminating the specific also extends to his precise arrangement of bodies in rooms and hallways; the various entrances to and exits from the kitchen, for example, reveal a tightly, yet never fussily so, controlled choreography.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
One of the most confident and unusual first features in recent memory.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Dalton
A fresh and original debut that is purely pleasurable.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Despite all that it withholds, The Strange Little Cat ultimately proves a far more revealing form of family portrait.
Village Voice
Stephanie Zacharek
The words "student film" can strike terror in the bravest of hearts, but fear not The Strange Little Cat.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A vivid and wonder-inducing example of everyday spirituality during one day in the life off a family in a Berlin apartment.
Slant Magazine
John Semley
Ultimately, even at a short 72 minutes, it feels like that magic bottle revolving in a pot: gyrating lopsided on its own axis, spinning and spinning and spinning until it exhausts its momentum, and our patience.
Chicago Reader
Ben Sachs
Nothing remarkable ever happens; likewise, the characters come close to experiencing epiphanies but don't quite make it.
The Playlist
Jessica Kiang
Because of its many little pleasures...but also because whatever mix of terrifying, boring, amusing...and tragic you get from it, it's very possible...you'll be the only one on whom The Strange Little Cat has that exact cocktail of effects.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...an all-too-slight cinematic experiment that just doesn't quite work.
