'To call Cats a cinematic experience unlike any other does not do justice to precisely how mind-meltingly bizarre Cats is' wrote ajhan
While there was scattered praise for the commitment of Hooper and cast to their vision, the reviews took issue with the CGI technology, the thin plot, the overuse of the unexplained word "jellicle," the cockroaches with children's faces imposed on them, the strangely sexual energy of the cat-humans and even the original Broadway show underlying the movie.
Some critics claimed they had to "resist the urge to remove a shoe to throw at the screen" or wanted to pray "for the sweet release of death" after tiring of "cats singing about what kind of cat they are."is terrible, but it's also kind of great," wroteHere are excerpts from some of the more memorable reviews.
Reader, none of those questions get answered, including the most pressing - where are their bumholes? Why? Well, because absolutely jack all happens in this film.Sometimes, you watch a movie just feeling your brow furrow. If I look older this week, you can thankthe movie, which I watched in what can only be described as shell-shocked puzzlement, as questions rose up around me.
undermines itself in both editing and musical arrangement, barely has a plot to hang its hat on, and is CGI-ed into oblivion. Yet there's something weirdly wonderful about just how committed Hooper is to his vision, which feels like it should have been audience-tested into something less phantasmagorical. also serves as a fitting end to 2019, as a death knell to irony.
Tom Hooper's direction to his actors for this semblance of a plot was to act it super horny. That doesn't givea raw sexual energy as much as it makes everything incredibly uncomfortable like when Rum Tum Tugger is dumping milk into cats' faces or Macavity just seems more nude than other cats even though technically all the cats are nude.
