Highly charming and more-than-slightly-surreal feline adventure from Studio Ghibli.

4 stars

This film had an interesting plot, which made it enjoyable and was a brilliant action film that was worth watching.

The Cat Returns was a film about a crazy king cat who wants his son to marry a young girl after doing a big favor to the royal family of cats! In this movie there are various cats with individual roles dealing with humans in different scenes of the film. However at some other parts it is precisely the opposite. The Cat Returns takes place in two completely different communities, a mythical cat kingdom and a small town in Japan. These two settings shift from time to time. I would classify this animated film as a modern movie with state-of-the-art graphics, action at all times and an entertaining cast of actors!

From what I have told you, I think this film has interesting message for us all, which is that all humans and all animals should exist in harmony. I personally think this is film deserves four stars.
