With its neon backdrops and constantly dancing and prancing cast, Cats often resembles a child-friendly companion to Gaspar Noe's Climax. Both movies are light on story and heavy on garish disco era inspired spectacle and funky footwork, and they're arguably the best screen musicals the modern era has produced. Read more

It’s a generous and carefully crafted musical that does not need to be a cliché to be accepted by the majority. It simply does not work that way and it would not. Read more

Cats brings Webber's Broadway sensation to life as an audaciously bizarre spectacle sure to delight and divide as much as the original musical does. Read more

As in Les Mis, Hooper has his cast sing live, and it is Hudson’s performance of the signature song Memory that far outshines every other musical number here. It’s likely what you’ll be humming as you walk out of the theatre, and the one thing you’ll most remember about these Cats. Read more

Although, it is not merely the case that Hooper’s Cats is a visual effects experiment gone wrong in what would otherwise be an acceptable musical adaptation. It is not particularly pleasant to listen to, either. Read more

Existence is futile, and nothing makes sense, in a world where this movie exists. Book your therapist now; you’re going to need a LOT of emotional work to get rid of the trauma of watching Tom Hooper’s latest. Read more

R is iets fundamenteel mis met Cats. De keuze om de acteurs via digitale trucage in hun kattenkostuum te hijsen levert zo'n onprettige beelden op dat zelfs de beste muziek je aandacht niet kan opeisen. Hierdoor kan deze plotloze musicalverfilming zelfs de meest overtuigde kattenliefhebber niet bekoren. Read more

De start is te weinig overtuigend en de zang door bepaalde castleden te flauw waardoor de magie van de musical al snel verloren gaat in de film. Tot slot is de algemene cinematografie & enscenering opnieuw een minpunt in de film. Read more

Cats is een aaneenschakeling van losse flodders waarin totaal geen verhaal te bespeuren valt. Nou goldt dat ook al voor de gelijknamige musical waar de film op gebaseerd is, maar die kwam daar nog mee weg door het live ten gehore brengen van de zang in combinatie met een strakke choreografie.

Een wanvertoning waarbij elk lichtpuntje teniet wordt gedaan door de slechte vormgeving. Eigenlijk klopt al het slechte wat er al over geschreven is. Read more

De decors zijn prachtig in elkaar gezet en adembenemend mooi, maar dat is vrijwel het enige dat goed is aan Cats.
