	Author	Review
United States	Sheri Linden The Hollywood Reporter	"A collective portrait that's as elegant as its light-footed subjects, it's guaranteed to soothe a weary mind, and just might lower blood pressure too."	POS
United States	Joe Leydon Variety	"'Kedi' will make you a believer."	POS
United States	Mike D'Angelo AV Club	"'Kedi' might look like a glorified cute cat video, but it has plenty to say about people, too"	POS
United States	Sheila O'Malley rogerebert.com	"I was surprised at the power of 'Kedi'. Where did all that emotion come from? It's because what Torun really captures in her unexpectedly powerful film is kindness in its purest form (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Bilge Ebiri Village Voice	"Torun's film lovingly conveys that idea — that the cats of Istanbul help humanize and make sense of an uncontrollable place."	POS
United States	Glenn Kenny The New York Times	"A frequently enchanting documentary (...) The movie is replete with ingeniously constructed mini-narratives, including a turf war."	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"A sweet-natured documentary (...) It is by turns intriguing, amusing and a little bit twee. I enjoyed it (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Joshua Rothkopf Time Out	"We're down on the ground with these animals, whose day-to-day impulsiveness finds a sinuous expression in some of the most elegant camerawork to ever  grace a nature doc (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
