I just saw this on Saturday (Caturday? and it was, from beginning to end, like having a fever dream. The characters randomly acting or sounding like cats was hilarious and disturbing at the same time. Memory was great, but most of the songs, as Adum stated, are nonsense songs introducing someone. Or expanding on what a Jellicle Cat is, though I'm still not sure as the lyrics for most of the songs (especially the first and the one where they are entering the theater/temple) are some of the worst I've ever heard. The scale annoyed the hell out of me and was my biggest complaint. Examples include: The Jewlery during the the two cats that destroy houses song, railroad tracks in the Train Cat song, the boat and chains. Overall I enjoyed myself, had a lot of laughs. That ending half-monologue was cringe af though and it was delivered by Judy Dench. Like what. lol.

Somone killed my cat on wednesday i feel sad and im pretty sure it was a human because his intestines were out and since last year from now that person has killed like ten cats and my grandpa burries them and two of them were kittens and no my cat wasnt ran over i cried for three days.

After seeing SO many negative reviews of this movie, I decided I needed to see it for myself. In the end, it is the next evolution of the musical. The original is a bunch of humans, dressed as cats in make-up, singing and dancing. Now the humans are digitally dressed as cats, singing and dancing. What is the problem? What is the big difference. If it all comes down to understanding the story, most people don't. Sit back and enjoy the escape of watching people, pretending to be cats, singing and dancing in London. Catster. Hunting balls is every cat's favourite game does that mean i am a cat. Those CGI faces look disturbing. Its like if someone made a movie about horses and they just pasted human faces on them instead of keeping the horses heads. Does that make sense.

Cats movie cast. They have accepted Robo Vacuum into the pack here it seems 1:58 Also Id like to note how 1:58 if rewatched multiple times REALLY captures the fact that cats all actually have vividly different personalities. 1) The cat on the rights eyes goes wider for a split second in reaction and has a genuine look of intrigue and wonder immediately after. This cat is also not the quickest to hone in on the exact location the sound came from, signifying this cat is likely the less alert cat of the group. Since this cat is the less alert this cat is also the most aggressive cat. 2) White cat in middle is clearly the more confident ring leader of the pack. He is slightly slower than the cat on the right to react to the sound, but does hone in on the exact location of the sound quicker than the cat on the right. 3) Cat on the left is Garfield legit. He is lookin like he always tired. He seems to be the cat that is confident in his size (no wonder) and is generally just well liked because they know he will defend the pack if need be and is big enough to do so well. He lets the other cats stay on alert so he can be well rested the immediate moment they need him.

Eliot. The film is directed by Tom Hooper —in his second feature musical following Les Misérables (2012)—from a screenplay by Lee Hall and Hooper and features an ensemble cast, including James Corden, Judi Dench, Jason Derulo, Idris Elba, Jennifer Hudson, Ian McKellen, Taylor Swift, Rebel Wilson, and Francesca Hayward. Cats was theatrically released in the United Kingdom and the United States on 20 December 2019, by Universal Pictures. The film received generally unfavourable reviews from critics, who criticized the CGI effects, plot, and tone, with many calling it one of the worst films of 2019. The film also became a box-office bomb, grossing $74 million on a budget as high as $100 million. Plot Victoria, a young white cat, is dropped in the streets of London by her owner in the middle of the night. The alley cats witnessing this introduce themselves to her as the " Jellicles ". Two toms, meek magician Mr. Mistoffelees who develops a crush on Victoria and the loyal Munkustrap, and two queens, the snooty Cassandra and Demeter, take Victoria under their wing and show her the world of the Jellicles as they hype up the Jellicle Ball, an annual ceremony where cats compete for the chance to go to the Heaviside Layer and be granted a new life. Throughout the film, the competitors are introduced and express their contributions to the community: Jennyanydots, a domestic tabby, boosts the productivity of mice and roaches; the Rum Tum Tugger, a flirtatious tom who riles up the others; Bustopher Jones, a bourgeois cat who boasts about his weight and shares food scraps from the garbage; Skimbleshanks, a tidy ginger cat who taps along the railway; Gus, an aged theatre cat who has played some of the biggest roles in history; and Macavity, a villainous stray with the power to apparate and who kidnaps the other contestants (save for Tugger) in order to be made the Jellicle Choice by default. Victoria also happens to meet the mischievous twins Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer who enjoy causing trouble and messing with things in the house of their human family. They convince Victoria to join in the fun, but leave her tangled up in some necklaces when the family dog is alerted to their presence. Luckily, Mr. Mistoffelees comes to rescue Victoria, distracting the dog and escaping with her. They return to the group, just in time to see the arrival of the tribe's wise and beloved matriarch Old Deuteronomy. The Jellicle Ball commences inside the abandoned Egyptian Theatre. Victoria dances a ballet solo in the moonlight but is distracted by Cassandra harassing Grizabella, a former member of the tribe who was banished for, among other things, her past allegiance with Macavity. Victoria relates to Grizabella's feelings of abandonment. As Grizabella slinks away into the streets, Old Deuteronomy witnesses their quiet camaraderie and assures Victoria that she can become a Jellicle herself in time. The Ball is interrupted by femme fatale Bombalurina, who performs a song and dance number dedicated to Macavity: a distraction to incapacitate the party with catnip. Macavity arrives, demanding to be made the Jellicle Choice. Old Deuteronomy deems him unworthy and is subsequently kidnapped and placed with Macavity's other victims. As the Jellicles recuperate, distraught over their leader's disappearance, Victoria suggests that Mr. Mistoffelees use his powers to conjure Old Deuteronomy back. He tries a few times, eventually making Old Deuteronomy reappear. The cats rejoice and praise Mr. Mistoffeles; he and Victoria dance together. Meanwhile, Jennyanydots, via a costume change, frees herself and the other cats kidnapped by Macavity. Macavity apparates away, leaving his lackey to walk the plank at the mercy of the emancipated cats. Grizabella returns to the Egyptian. Victoria vouches for her and urges her to sing her true feelings. Grizabella proceeds to sing a passionate ballad about her mistakes, her former glory, and her beauty, sentiments that touch the hearts of the Jellicles. Old Deuteronomy names Grizabella the Jellicle Choice and sends her off to the Heaviside Layer in a chandelier (repaired by Mr. Mistoffelees' magic to float like a hot air balloon). Macavity, in one last attempt to reach the Heaviside Layer, leaps onto a rope from the chandelier but falls onto Nelson's Column. The Jellicles, reunited with their kidnapped brethren, and perched on a lion statue, watch Grizabella ascend as the morning sun appears above the horizon. After the congregation disperses, Old Deuteronomy welcomes Victoria to the tribe. Cast Production Development An animated film adaptation based on the musical was initially planned by Amblimation in the 1990s, but was abandoned with the studio's closure. [27] In December 2013, Andrew Lloyd Webber, creator and composer of the musical stage production Cats, teased that Universal Pictures, which had purchased the film rights to Cats many years earlier, was putting the project into active development. [28] In February 2016, it was reported that Tom Hooper was in negotiations to direct the film, and was considering actresses, including Suki Waterhouse, to star. [29] In May 2016, Hooper was confirmed as director. [30] In January 2018, Hooper and Working Title began officially casting for the film, while looking into the technical aspect of whether the film would be entirely live-action or computer generated or a mix of both, [ citation needed] with Lloyd Webber announcing he would be writing a new song for the film adaptation. [31] On 24 October 2019, it was announced that the new song is titled " Beautiful Ghosts ", written by Taylor Swift and Lloyd Webber. [32] The song will be sung by Francesca Hayward, followed later in a reprise by Judi Dench, with a credits version sung by Swift. [33] The version sung by Swift was released on 15 November 2019. [34] Casting In June 2018, there were reports Anne Hathaway was considered for a role in the film, but she passed due to scheduling conflict. [35] In July 2018, Jennifer Hudson, Taylor Swift, James Corden, and Ian McKellen joined the cast. [36] Swift had previously tested for the role of Éponine in Tom Hooper's Les Misérables but was given the part of Bombalurina without an audition. [37] In September 2018, Laurie Davidson and Mette Towley were cast, with Steven Spielberg announced to be executive producing. [38] [39] In October 2018, Idris Elba and Judi Dench joined the cast of the film. [40] [41] Dench was cast in the original stage musical, but was forced to pull out due to a torn Achilles tendon; Lloyd Webber and Hooper decided to make Old Deuteronomy a woman and offered her the role. [42] In November 2018, ballet dancers Francesca Hayward and Steven McRae as well as Rebel Wilson, Jason Derulo, and Robert Fairchild joined the cast of the film with rehearsals commencing at Leavesden Studios in Hertfordshire, England. [43] [44] [45] [46] Andy Blankenbuehler choreographed the film, after Wayne McGregor was forced to back out due to scheduling conflicts. [47] Blankenbuehler also choreographed the stage musical's 2016 Broadway revival. In December 2018, Les Twins and Eric Underwood joined the cast. [48] Filming Principal photography began on 12 December 2018, [48] and wrapped on 2 April 2019. [49] Swift said that the cast attended "cat school", in which "We would literally do hours on end of barefoot crawling on the floor, hissing at each other". [50] Hooper said at the 16 December world premiere that he had finished the film "at 8am the previous day after 36 hours in a row". [51] [52] Music Music for the film was composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber. A "highlights" edition of the soundtrack with a running time of 59 minutes was released on 20 December 2019, by Polydor Records and in the US by Republic Records. [53] The song " Beautiful Ghosts " by Taylor Swift, a single from the soundtrack album, was released on 15 November 2019.

Companies that worked on the film include Technicolor SA subsidiaries Mill Film and MPC. [55] To aid this, the actors performed in motion capture suits with tracking dots on their costumes and faces. [56] The bodies of the cat characters were rendered with digital fur which was blended with the actors' actual faces. [57] Substantial work on the VFX for Cats was performed at MPC Vancouver, which had previously worked on re-doing the visual effects for Sonic the Hedgehog. [58] The film's visuals were completed just hours before its premiere. [57] Marketing On 6 April 2019, Jennifer Hudson performed " Memory " at the Las Vegas CinemaCon, along with a behind-the-scenes look with the film's cast and crew. [59] On 17 July 2019, Universal released a behind-the-scenes featurette detailing the various aspects of the film's production and featuring interviews with the cast and crew. [60] The first trailer for the film was released on 18 July 2019, [61] and received overwhelmingly negative reactions from viewers. [62] Many viewers were unsettled by the mix of CGI and live-action used to portray the cats, and cited the effects as an example of the uncanny valley, with some comparing it unfavourably to the design of Sonic in the first trailer of the upcoming film Sonic the Hedgehog, which also sparked similar criticism that ultimately resulted in the character being redesigned and the film being delayed. [63] [64] The studio spent about $115 million on global promotions and advertisements for the film. [65] Release The film premiered at Alice Tully Hall at the Lincoln Center in New York City on 16 December 2019 [66] [67] and was theatrically released in the United States and United Kingdom on 20 December 2019. [68] CGI glitches and modified release The film's original release contained numerous CGI errors and glitches, such as one scene in which Judi Dench's human hand, complete with her wedding ring, appears instead of her character's cat paw. [69] After poor reviews, Universal notified cinemas on opening day that an updated Digital Cinema Package with "some improved visual effects" would be available for download on 22 December, urging them to replace the current print as soon as possible. Studio executives and cinema owners said that the decision to release a modified version of a film already in wide release was "unheard of". [70] Reception Box office As of 13 February 2020, Cats has grossed $27. 2 million in the United States and Canada, and $47. 4 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $74. 6 million, against a production budget of about $95 million. [5] [4] Estimates for how much the film would lose the studio range from $71–100 million. [65] [71] In the United States and Canada, Cats was initially projected to gross $15–20 million in its opening weekend. [72] Universal hoped that the film would appeal to young women as counterprogramming against Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, and emphasised Swift in marketing; the singer, who only appeared for one song, did not heavily promote the film to her fans. [51] After making $2. 6 million on its opening day (including $550, 000 from Thursday night previews), estimates for Cats were lowered to $7 million. [3] Even then, the film only debuted to $6. 5 million, finishing fourth at the box office. The underperformance was attributed to dislike of the trailers, poor reviews of the film itself, and competition from The Rise of Skywalker. [2] In its second weekend, Cats made $4. 8 million (a total of $8. 7 million over the five-day Christmas frame), falling to eighth. [73] It then made $2. 6 million in its third weekend, finishing tenth. [74] Critical response The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported that 20% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 294 reviews, with an average rating of 3. 75/10. The site's critics consensus reads: "Despite its fur-midable cast, this Cats adaptation is a clawful mistake that will leave most viewers begging to be put out of their mew-sery. " [75] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 32 out of 100 based on 51 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews". [76] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "C+" on an A+ to F scale, while those at PostTrak gave it an average 0. 5 out of 5 stars, with 30% saying they would definitely recommend it. [65] Peter Debruge of Variety called the film "one of those once-in-a-blue-moon embarrassments that mars the résumés of great actors (poor Idris Elba, already scarred enough as the villainous Macavity) and trips up the careers of promising newcomers (like ballerina Francesca Hayward, whose wide-eyed, mouth-agape Victoria displays one expression for the entire movie). " He criticised the direction and effects, and warned that the film would appeal to furries. [77] David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter felt that the film was "hobbled by a major misjudgment in its central visual concept" lamenting its execution (such as the poor proportions of the "cats" to their environments) and deeming the film "exhausting. " [78] Peter Travers of Rolling Stone rated the film 0 out of 5 stars, stating it was "bizarre, " had terrible special effects and made the audience "want to cry for mercy, " while Hooper "traps the actors in an airless, lifeless bubble of a film that scarcely gives them room to breathe, much less develop a character. " [79] In the Los Angeles Times, Justin Chang wrote that "With its grotesque design choices and busy, metronomic editing, Cats is as uneasy on the eyes as a Hollywood spectacle can be, tumbling into an uncanny valley between mangy realism and dystopian artifice". [80] Debruge said that the film should have used "face paint and Lycra" like the musical. [77] Simran Hans of The Observer agreed that "many of its uncanny images are sure to haunt viewers for generations. " Her one-star review described the film as "a clear career low" for most of the actors, wondering whether they "are aware of what they've gotten themselves into. " [52] Peter Bradshaw for The Guardian agreed with the one-star rating. In a review parodying " The Naming of Cats, " he criticized the visual style and particularly the character design, while lambasting the film as a "dreadful hairball of woe. " [81] Manohla Dargis of The New York Times felt that Hooper had made "a robust effort" to adapt the stage musical—which "was always going to be difficult, particularly once the decision was made to create a live-action version rather than an animated one"—and "enlisted some talented performers, " but that the film version suffered from a lack of the human connection that theatre involves, where performers and audience share a space, without which "all that's left are canned images of fit-looking people meowing and raising their rumps high in the air. " [82] The Hollywood Reporter named Cats one of the ten worst films of 2019, [83] Travers said it "easily scores as the bottom of the 2019 barrel—and arguably of the decade, " [79] and Adam Graham of The Detroit News said " Cats is the biggest disaster of the decade, and possibly thus far in the millennium. It's Battlefield Earth with whiskers. " [84] Alex Cranz of io9 warned "I have seen sights no human should see" but said others "must witness" Hooper's, the actors', and Hollywood's hubris, citing a human being appearing in a group of cats, a cat-coloured woman without fur, and other examples of how "the shit's just not finished. " [85] Ty Burr of The Boston Globe ' s one half-star review said "there are moments in 'Cats' I would gladly pay to unsee" and warned small children to not watch the film. He reported that the preview audience laughed like the reaction to Springtime for Hitler during Dench's "The Ad-dressing of Cats", because each pause in her lyrics seemed to be the end of the film ("at long last") before continuing. [86] Despite the negative critical reception, the performances of some of the cast received praise. Pete Hammond of Deadline complimented Taylor Swift, writing that she "acquits herself nicely as Bombalurina and her signature 'Macavity' number, as well as 'Beautiful Ghosts', written for the end credits by Swift and Lloyd Webber. " [87] Critic Guy Lodge called Swift "the best thing in the film" and "the one performer who completely hits their marks and pulls off the lone successful number, " [88] while critic Rebecca Lewis described Swift's performance as "one of the few genuinely good parts of the film. " [89] Patrick Ryan of USA Today stated that Swift "makes the most of her brief screen time, bringing her unabating charisma to the flirtatious feline... if there's one thing that's disappointing about Swift's performance, it's that there isn't more of it. " [90] Hans said that she was the only actor "who seems to be having fun, perhaps because she only appears in the film for approximately 10 minutes. " [52] Jennifer Hudson similarly received praise for her rendition of 'Memory, ' with some critics describing it as "the best part" of the film [91] and "the sole musical number in the new movie that summons real feeling. " [92] Rich Juzwiak of Jezebel predicted in early January 2020 that Cats might become a cult classic like Rocky Horror Picture Show and The Room, noting that sing-along screenings of the film were already taking place in Toronto and Los Angeles and were selling out. [93] [94] As of February 2020 Milwaukee's Oriental Theatre, Coolidge Corner Theatre near Boston, and FilmScene in Iowa City are among notable small theaters showing Cats. Coolidge Corner gives Rocky Horror -like viewing instructions to audiences at its monthly showings. [95] Accolades Variety reported on 26 December 2019 that Universal had removed Cats from its For Your Consideration Web page. The film is not available on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences 's private streaming media platform for award contenders.

Cats Videos Photos Movie Info Universal Pictures and Working Title's Cats is a most-unexpected film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's beloved smash musical "Cats" and the poems from "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, " by T. S. Eliot. Oscar (R)-winning director Tom Hooper (The King's Speech, Les Misérables, The Danish Girl) brings astonishing new technology to transform his cast members. Acclaimed casting director Lucy Bevan is casting the film adaptation. The epic will be produced by Hooper and Working Title's Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner, as well as fellow Les Misérables producer Debra Hayward-who brought the idea to Working Title. CATS will be produced by Working Title Films in association with Monumental Pictures and The Really Useful Group and executive produced by three-time Oscar (R) winner Steven Spielberg, Lloyd Webber and Angela Morrison. Hooper and Lee Hall (Billy Elliott, War Horse) have adapted the story for the screen. One of the longest-running shows in West End and Broadway history, "Cats" received its world premiere at the New London Theatre in 1981-where it played for 21 record-breaking years and almost 9, 000 performances. The groundbreaking production based on T. Eliot's "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats" was the winner of the Olivier and Evening Standard Awards for Best Musical.

Cats scene.

 

Cats and dogs movie. How good is God that He made these cute dudes for us to love. Cats bus schedule. Cats showtimes. Cats full movie. The fact these cats look like they came of the island of Dr. Monreau is bad enough. This film is really bad. Like awfully bad.
The film makes you want to claw your eyes out. There really is a lack of plot and never a sense of fun. It's exhausting and tedious to get through with so many awful and unmemorable songs. The cast can sing well but that's it. Everything is a song. There isn't really any dialogue in at all.
Performances are just not good. Everyone is laughable. From Heyward to Hudson to McKellen to Dench. I don't know why people like Corden and Wilson. They are mostly unfunny. Idris Elba is the best but he can't carry this film.
Its aesthetics are fine but it's just exhausting to watch everything happen with no substance.
This musical doesn't work as a film.
Just avoid it like the plague. There are a few saving graces, but for a man who did Les Miserables, The King's Speech, and The Danish Girl, this is a disaster.
