1/4
The film's plot ... feels like a very bland character's search for a personality. Go to Full Review
Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times Dec 4, 2014
A dead pet isn't the only inert element of "Murder of a Cat," a plodding comic caper that fails to deliver. Go to Full Review
Neil Genzlinger New York Times Dec 4, 2014
"Murder of a Cat" is a pleasant enough comic thriller, though it's the lead character - not the cat - you might most want to see murdered. Go to Full Review

1/5
Murder of a Cat essentially boils down to a (very) poor man's Burn After Reading, stripped of all stakes. Go to Full Review

Forgettable, unfunny indie whodunit is fairly violent. Go to Full Review

5.5/10
There aren't enough laughs to maintain the weak plot, and it is a pity, since Murder of a Cat is really unlike anything we've seen before. Go to Full Review

Hermione W Nov 10, 2017 Not enough to hold it together.
Hermione R Aug 30, 2017 Pleasant and charming despite being absolutely stupid. Murder Of A Cat starts out a little slow but quickly steps up its game as the plot line begins to unfold and more hilarious events take place. If there's one thing I'm really impressed about it's that haircut Kranz got that totally transformed his appearance. See more
