Do not watch this film for quality or any semblance of cohesiveness. It's awful and horrible and will scare your kids. However, DO have a blast turning this into a drinking game with (legally aged) friends. Take a shot for every time you see a missing limb or feature on the cat. Worth it.

Seeing this for myself, I can honestly say the music and dance sequences in and of themselves weren't awful. But still, the CGI costumes were a bad idea, and whatever resembled a plot was ultimately predictable. My experience with Cats prior to the movie was only the commercials that aired each time the Broadway Series production came to town. I won't be on the hate train for this movie.

The film is so awful. It's so ugly. I can't endure after 5 minutes. Because of the film is very, very bad, I don't even want to give a star. But in order to rate it, I have to give a star at least. So, I had to give a star and I did. A piece of advice. No matter what you do, DO NOT watch this film. You'll regret it if you watch this one.
