This movie is intended for fans of the musical, and not for critics and film reviewers alike who have not seen the musical, or read the poems. Yes, I’ll admit the CGI is very choppy in some areas, particularly towards the end, which is not something you want in a movie, to say the least. The controversial CGI design, however, can be easily overlooked and even ignored if you’re able to get into the story and experience of Cats. As a fan of the musical and the poems, I greatly enjoyed the film, and had a lot of fun with it. The only other criticisms I have about the film are nerdy nitpicks which I don’t want to get into (E.g: Skimbleshanks should not have a moustache!), or casting decisions that I also don’t want to get into (E.g: Rebel Wilson as Jennyanydots). Overall, the film is wonderful enjoyable if screened to the right audience, but unwise casting decisions and unfinished CGI work pull it down. I would give the film three and a half stars, but Google doesn’t let you do that here.… Expand

I know the critics have mostly canned this film, and I went along with my wife, not expecting much, but I’m happy to say that I was surprised at its pure entertainment value.

I never saw Cats when it was a musical stage sensation, but I understand that this movie stays true to its theatrical roots. TS Eliot’s work was probably not written with a theatrical adaptation in mind, so the writers have done well to spin this book of poems into a loosely knit plot. There is also a touch of Eliot’s mysticism. The characters, played by a Who’s Who of actors, convey a great deal of warmth and heart, and the production values are top notch. Don’t go expecting a complex plot. Just go to let the experience wash over you.… Expand

I absolutely loved this movie and so did my daughters (age 23 and 26). We've seen the play though and loved the play but we liked the movie even more! I believe those who appreciate dance and music (actual talent) will enjoy it.

What an experience! Cats overflows with creativity and ardor and spirit and energy that comes from the cast onscreen and the people behind the scenes. The sets are mysteriously beautiful. But I think I was most impressed with the dancingWhat an experience! Cats overflows with creativity and ardor and spirit and energy that comes from the cast onscreen and the people behind the scenes. The sets are mysteriously beautiful. But I think I was most impressed with the dancing choreographed by Andy Blankenbuehler and the dancers especially Francesca Hayward and Les Twins. But IMO all the Jellicle dancers put on an amazing show, so much so that there were moments in the film when I kind of wished director Tom Hooper had followed some of the full-cast dances a bit slower. But then again there is something to be said for Hooper's infectuous whirling effect. The singers are as good as the classic songs. Taylor Swift is a flirtatious Bombalurina who sings the nasty Macavity's (good job, Idris Elba) theme song as well as parts of "Beautiful Ghosts" & the full version over the end credits. . Jennifer Hudson's tortured, emotional version of "Memory" works wonderfully most of the time, especially at the end. This "Cats" casts Victoria in the starring role of an innocent homeless kitten rescued by some of the Jellicle tribe. I don't want to be a spoiler so I'll just say Victoria has some adventures as she gets to know individual Jellicles, some more than others. She follows one of Grizbella's "Memory" preludes with a sweet and touching version of "Beautiful Ghosts". If I try to comment on everyone and everything that makes Cats Cats this would be a very very long review! So just a few more. The comic relief provided by various cast members was uneven, some good, some "meh" but these short scenes do make Cats more entertaining and give audience members a chance to catch their collective breath. The most marvelous "performances by an actor" were Judi Dench as Old Deuteronomy and Ian McKellen as Gus the Theatre Cat. There is something so warm and inviting about Dame Judi's facial expressions; she was covered with just the right amount of digital fur so that the audience could be moved by them. Sir McKellen is a treasure.He plays an old, seen-it-all actor reminicing about his long theatrical career with a sense of pride and joy in his craft that is genuinely moving. Thank you, Andrew Lloyd Webber and everyone who brought this feline magical mystery tour to the P.S. A quick comment on the "trailers" ~ having seen the complete movie, I feel sorry for those whose jobs were to create 3-minute trailers to communicate the merits of this movie. The film contains so much more than can be squeezed into a trailer.… Expand

Despite all of the negative reviews, it is pretty true to the stage production with some slight changes. Francesca Hayward was an enchanting Victoria, Dame Judi Dench was charming, and the CGI really wasn’t the disaster critics claim. Cats has always been a whimsical, idiosyncratic musical without a hefty plot line. The joy of Cats is in the wonderful music, dancing, and the unique feline characters. If you have no sense of fun or appreciation for the arts and can’t suspend your disbelief long enough to simply enjoy some great singers and actors who happen to be in Cat costumes, skip this film. I’m sure there will be another dull, formulaic and unoriginal film you can watch instead. Maybe another Fast and Furious sequel is more your speed ?!?!… Expand

I tell you, if someone was going to make an adaptation of ALW's Cats, i WANTED it to look weird! I wanted it to strange, fantastical, sometimes silly, sometimes oddly serious, and always unlike any other movie out there. In those terms, this film is a wild success. You can argue that you don't like the show on which it is based (I had actually never seen it, nor was I familiar with most of the music,) and that you might have never had any interest in seeing any adaptation of it period, but I feel like most people are merely reviewing the film's existence and not the film itself. If you don't like the look of the film and the performers, what WOULD have satisfied you? It was always going to be humans pretending to be cats. Yes, the CGI fur and make-up looks odd, but I was totally fine with it. I was thoroughly entertained for the entire film. I went to an early press screening, and then took my wife a few days later. Unlike me, she is very familiar with the show and she absolutely loved this film. Even more than I. Are there so rough edges to this film? Definitely. But that's certainly true with similarly toned recent musicals like Moulin Rouge or The Greatest Showman, and I like this film considerably more than those. The cast here is excellent. Ian McKellen is a notable standout. Many of the non-star dancers are exceptional. I think Hooper did an excellent job with the film. A Cats movie was always going to be weird. This is gloriously weird. The more people who hate on it now, the bigger the cult status it will achieve later. This film has its fans. They just need to find each other. This one will be watched for years to come. Just not by everyone.… Expand

In order to help explain the plot, it helps to look at this film's origins. At first, there were a bunch of poems about cats written by T.S. Elliott in the 1930s. Then came the crazy idea to turn them into songs for an eighties musical. It really didn't have any spoken words. A loose story was added to tie the songs together. Now we've got a film trying to to sell this loose concept to a general audience. I don't think it did too bad a job.

The movie takes the basic musical and adds some dialogue and a little more to flesh things out. The story is this: a bunch of cats compete in order to win the honor of cat reincarnation. The story still isn't big; a lot of this is just the contestants introducing themselves through song. (You can go through multiple numbers without dialogue.) Still, I feel it works well enough. Don't get me wrong, the whole thing is kind of nuts. We've got a whole bunch of humanoid felines doing a bunch of random stuff. (Also, some of them are magic apparently.) But that's what I like about this. It's basically creative pageantry that is just trying to have fun. (Although, there is this really dark turn in the Jenny Anydots song, which wasn't in the previous works. It left a bad taste.)

Director Tom Hooper really tried to keep the highlights of the musical: the songs and the dancing. A lot of musical movie adaptations have to cut stuff for time, but this one is surprisingly intact. The movie manages to keep all but one song I believe. Fans of the original be prepared that they change up the lyrics or musical tempo or style for some of the numbers. (I think the movie was trying to update these to appeal to the mainstream.) Personally, I didn't find any of the changes too outrageous.

As for the songs, well Memory, which the musical is best known for, is an excellent piece. The other numbers, though... Well, these contain thirties lyrics and peculiar feel to a lot of them. I think the songs are decent, but they don't compete with a bunch of other musicals. They're a bit of a selective taste. The new song Beautiful Ghosts (the one they usually create for films in order to get a best original song Oscar nomination) is okay. The lyrics are very poetic, but the music can't live up to them.

One of the things I like best about this is that it brings back what is missing in a lot of modern musicals: the extended dance sections. The choreography is really good the cinematography does a fluid job of displaying the action. There is a real distinctiveness to people dancing like cats.

This movie is eye-candy personified. All the sets are huge, dreamlike, and colorful in a dark neon sort of way (as confusing as that sounds.) There are these big fantastic-looking set pieces and so many of them.

The cats are created using computer graphics on mo-cap actors. The people-cats are definitely distinctive looking. The animation for the faces never quite feel natural, but it I didn't find it to be a deal breaker either.

For a movie where people act like cats, I'm impressed that almost the entire cast really committed to this. Idris Elba seems to be having a hell of a time eating up the scenery. It's rather fascinating seeing how veteran actors Judi Dench and Ian McKellan take such goofy actions as rubbing heads together or scratching themselves so seriously. McKellan puts so much work into his character's mannerisms that I think this is one of his best roles. The lead Francesca Haywood, a ballerina, does a fine job as the newbie to the group.

Remember when I said "almost?" Well, Rebel Wilson as Jennyanydots is the only actor who doesn't feel like they're trying to play a character. She's just doing Rebel Wilson stuff and throwing jokes. The character Jennyanydots as she plays her doesn't really match the character as described in her introductory song.

This movie, especially the songs may not be for everyone. It's kinda artsy, but I found this to be a truly unique and creative ride. I say give it a shot.… Expand

As expected, this is not a movie about cats; This a movie about ghouls. Two hours of gyrating ghouls. Maybe you're thinking after two hours you'll get used to the ghouls, because you'll get immersed in the plot or something. But nope, they're still ghouls the whole time and it's always terrifying. And there is no plot.

This was the most fun I've had at a movie in a long time, mostly because the combination of unintentionally terrifying creatures really sincerely trying their best to be cute for so long but just never succeeding was sort of like a running gag that kept getting funnier and funnier as time wore on.

Also when you add on top of the cutesy terror the fact that there also attempts at humor that never quite land, so its sort of like if a demon was doing a standup set and just bombing up there and you feel bad for him but well, he is still a demon who would devour your soul at the first chance so not too bad for him.

And then you add in that none of the songs make any god damn sense whatsoever because there is no plot development so stuff just sort of happens and it is terrifying and then it stops.

This is a trash classic.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First thing I want to say here is, the hate this movie has been receiving is overwhelming ridiculous. I’ve been a fan of the original cats musical for a while now, so watching the movie from the stance of a theatre fan, this movie did an amazing job at bringing the magic of cats to the big screen. First of all, I love what they did with Victoria’s character. In the original musical Victoria doesn’t have a song and she isn’t the main character, no one is. But they way they spun this film into a story of a abandonment and acceptance was really touching. Furthermore the scene with skimbleshanks was incredible and magical. I could not believe how they gave skimble an entire tap number which fit his character perfectly. And Jennifer Hudson’s performance of “Memory” had me in tears in the theatre. Overall, this film was a great adaptation from musical to movie. Anyone who dislikes this movie is most likely a hater of the original breathtaking musical, Cats.… Expand

It has most ofI've seen the original Cats musical a handful of times, and the last time I watched it I did wonder why they hadn't created a film (other than the old filmed version of the musical). For the most part the film hits the spot. It has most of the songs from the original musical. The new song, Beautiful Ghosts, isn't a great fit but neither is it terrible. It's great to see some a variety of actors in the roles, which are pretty much a good fit. I don't have an issue with the CG, other than from a technical standpoint the fur seems to shift ever so slightly at times in relation to the actor. The story from the original musical is an odd one, and I suspect most people didn't understand it or pay attention, watching the dancing and listening to the songs instead. The film explains a lot more about what's going on, and it's either something you engage with or think is daft. Overall I enjoyed it, but clear it's proving divisive.… Expand

I am so glad that I gave this a chance! It was great!! Never have I ever gotten chills from a musical in a movie theatre. Having seen this on broadway three times, this could have been a letdown but I have told everyone to go see it again and again!!

Unexpectedly, I love this movie. Can we all appreciate how Taylor Swift carried the whole film despite only 5 minutes of appearance.

It is wonderful that the movie industry made this show available for a broader audience to experience. Some people can’t access live theatre. This movie will give them a near experience to what it’s like to watch the show on Broadway. My sister who hates the live show adored this movie. She said it made the entire stage plot make sense. I loved it as much as I loved the stage show. The Jennyanydots scene was too graphic...extremely disgusting. Other than that this movie deserves 10 stars.… Expand

The plot in the movie is something terrible as well as everything connected with this movie, exept atmosphere in a cinema. Due to the fact that most of people know that it is piece of sh*t, there were no audience.

A entrega dos atores é muito maior que qualquer péssimo figurino e falta de historia à ser contada, merece nota máxima pois os atores entregaram o melhor de si e realmente ficou ótimo os personagens,pena que o filme não é tão bom quanto eles.

Como podem desprezar uma obra de arte dessa ? Taylor Swift uma rainha tão dócil capaz de receber um hate tão grande que nem ela mesma merecia? Aonde iremos parar ? O filme está ótimo.

Simply lock in your target in a room and force them to watch the movie on loop. Don't forget to include some sort of weapon otherwise they will most likely use their nails to claw their eyes out and die very slowly. Quite a mess too.… Expand

I am a cat lover and I thought this movie was ok. I don't like the costumestumes. They look like weird furries. I'd rather see the musical.
