Reviews
- "Night of the Felines [is] highly regarded enough to have appeared in Kinema Junpo’s list of the greatest Japanese films of all time, in 2009. Elegantly directed, beautifully shot and pleasingly scored, Night of the Felines is an unusual but quietly charming and occasionally moving film that’s truly one-of-a-kind."
- "[I]t earns its place as a true classic of the Roman Porno genre."
- "With its striking visuals and a mix of lighthearted and tragic moments, it stands out as a notable entry in Nikkatsu’s Roman Porno series, highlighting both the allure and the struggles of Tokyo’s hidden nightlife."
- "Overall, this emerges as one of the finest efforts in this Roman Porno style. The cast here really makes the movie shine. Tomoko Katsura as the lead Masako is a spectacular lead. Funny, sweet and quite cute, her easy-going demeanor and gentle nature lead us through this scenario with relative ease."
