You'll think I'm dead, I'll sail away on a cat of mutilation
Today' film review - Catwoman. Yes, indeed. Halle Berry leaping around in tight leather. But no - put such base thoughts from your mind, as we examine the artistic merits of this piece.
The story is a bit pointless, but it does have some splendid cats in it. And a positive representation of cats in popular media is always to be applauded.
On the downside, however, the movements of Catwoman herself were often too fast. Cats just aren't normally that quick - they can be, but most of the time, they can't be bothered. They're too languid, too cool. They don't rush when it can be helped. The graphics of the frenetically hyperactive Ms Berry resembled more Gollum from Lord Of The Rings (Peter Jackson's 4th best film, after Brain Dead, Bad Taste and Meet the Feebles...) than any cats of my acquaintance. She should purr more and sleep more.
However, the cats were great. And Halle Berry leaping around in tight leather was.... no, we weren't going to mention it, were we?
