Review of Cats

Cats (2019)
2/10
Yes, it's bad, but...
17 January 2020
Smoke a little weed, put the mind in neutral, and forget that the collars around the kitties' necks have a tendency to move just slightly slower than the necks themselves. Dont ask why one cat is stripping off her skin to show more fur underneath - and certainly dont ask what her outer garment would be made of. Really, just dont do it.

It never ceases to amaze me when a director takes essentially bulletproof material like this and says, "Hey, let's see what I can do to really screw it up." Still, it had some nice moments (that lasted maybe a few seconds apiece) and some intriguing ideas (that lasted even shorter time). The background were, in the main, charming, but clearly meant for another movie altogether. Maybe a French musical with Gene Kelly. But not this one.
