About This Movie

Les Chats is this quirky blend of comedy and thriller that’s just a bit off-kilter, but in a good way. The premise is pretty amusing: a bunch of women storming the police station because their cats have gone missing. The real charm lies in how the investigation unfolds, with Inspector Tahar navigating the chaos with his somewhat hapless sidekick, the Apprentice. The performances are entertainingly over-the-top, lending a distinctive flavor to the whole affair. The pacing has this strange rhythm, balancing humorous moments with a sense of urgency that keeps you slightly on edge. The use of practical effects for the cat-related shenanigans adds a layer of charm, making it a curious watch for collectors who appreciate the oddities of 70s cinema.
