Felix the Cat: The Movie is an animated film from New World Pictures, based on the eponymous cartoon and comic strip character. It was made in 1987, but not released until 1991.

The film was a staple of Disney Channel's programming roster during the 1990s, and was released in VHS format by Buena Vista Home Video in April 1994. As of 2006, it has only appeared on DVD format in Great Britain. [1]

Felix the Cat stars in his first ever movie, along with new characters including a princess and an evil scientist, along with old friends Poindexter and Professor.

In another dimension, the evil Duke of Zill, with the help of his mechanical, geometric army, takes over the Land of Oriana, prompting Felix the Cat to save its princess and restore order.

The animated film starts off with a short background about the political turmoil in the land of Oriana, where the evil Duke of Zill has invaded, after being banished some time ago.

The duke captures Princess Oriana and her friends while she is trying to activate an old dimensporter. Oriana sheds a tear with her image in it, which activates the dimensporter by itself and travels to Felix's world, where he is relaxing outside on a beach.

Felix follows the tear into a cave where the dimensporter is located, where he encounters strange animals swimming in a pool of water Felix accidentally untaps. He manages to escape into a swamp where he is found by Pim, a hillbilly local.

Meanwhile, Poindexter and the Professor are after Felix to, of course, acquire his bag.

Pim leads Felix through the swamp, and takes him to Wack, a showbusiness lizard who works in Progress City. Felix is then made to perform for Wack, along with fellow prisoners the Mizzards- a cross between mice and lizards- and Princess Oriana.

Felix plans with Oriana to escape out of Wack's crazy circus, and they head off to the land of Oriana, to finally confront the Duke. The Duke sends out the Master Cylinder on Felix, but when Felix throws the book at it, the gold binding shorts out the circuits, and therefore, all the circuits of the army, which derived their power from the Master Cylinder.
