The part where all the cats freeze and stick their tails up when the moon lines up with the big hole in the ballroom ceiling and start to dance had me absolutely crippled with laughter. I was not mature enough for that experience.

This looks like the result of someone who wished on a monkey paw for a Cats movie and this is what they got.

That phoenix shadow across the water held such promise… such unfulfilled promise. That being said, I dressed up as a flea market version of Chewbacca for Episode 2’s premiere because I had a friend who said he would pay for a ticket for anyone who cosplayed for the event. It was a borrowed costume that resembled Chewbacca about as much as it resembled sasquatch, but at least I didn’t overpay to see that turd of a movie.

Iā€™m curious to see how ā€œCatsā€ is bad. A lot of big-budgeted studio films are bad the same way. If itā€™s uniquely bad, Iā€™m all in. Iā€™m hoping for ā€œIsland of Lost Souls: The Musicalā€. The first half of your critique, for me, is an endorsement. You and Stephanie Zacharek have convinced me to see this ahead of ā€œStar Warsā€.
