How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A chaotic comedy where a bumbling cop gains animal powers and has to figure out how to navigate dating and rivalry while fighting his own feral instincts. It's ridiculous, cartoonish fun that doesn't take itself seriously for a second.
