Catwoman (DVD)

...a decoy duck. The computer-generated Catwoman is equally bad. She has no sense of weight and moves more like a cartoon character than a real person and is obviously not really there. When I heard that Catwoman was going to be practising the Brazilian martial art of capoeira, I was excited. Fool that I was, I though we’d see some really inventive fight scenes. Of course we get nothing of the sort, what bouts of fisticuffs there are clumsily choreographed ...
...Halle Berry can save this Catwoman from being a dog’s dinner. And until he learns how to use the tools of his trade, I suggest that Mr Pitof p***** off. If you have the choice between seeing this and having root canal work without anaesthetic then go for the demon dentistry. And I’m only giving this one star because I don’t have the option to give it none. ...

Review of Catwoman (DVD)

Mention the film Catwoman and you'll be met with a groan, followed by the inevitable question "is it as bad as it sounds?" Well, it's not that bad at all... Actually, I think it's a brilliant fun watch and it did not deserve all the bad press it had! ► The Cast ◄ Patience Phillips/Catwoman - Halle Berry. (Gothika, X-Men) Detective Tom Lone - Benjamin Bratt. (Miss Congeniality, The Woodsman) George Hedare - Lambert Wilson. (Sahara, ...
...learns that she has become Catwoman - an unafraid, powerful and fierce version of herself. Inexplicably dressed in a sexy black leather outfit, Patience stalks the rooftops in the dead of night, determined to bring her killers to justice and prevent the launch of their dangerous new beauty cream. But Catwoman walks a think line between good and evil, and is easily misrepresented as a villain herself. Soon enough, she has Tom Lone on her tail, the ...

...and bring them down. Will Catwoman be able to bring her murder to justice? Acting Now to my surprise the critics didn’t think that the acting was very good in this movie, but I couldn’t disagree more, Halle Berry was brilliant as was Sharon Stone, as the super sexy vixen, who may or my not get what she deserves. • Halle Berry is brilliant; I don’t think I have seen her in a movie, where her performance hasn’t absorbed me in. As Patience she portrays ...
...as Catwoman her transformation is remarkable, her posture, the way she speaks, the clothes she wears all change to suit her new interesting and confident personality. Patience does go through a transformation to, it’s not just shallow. When people feel oppressed for that long, they feel that they are to blame, or that they deserve to be mistreated. But when they realize that there is something unique about them and they have something to offer then ...

Its all over the place at times and i dont know if the director was going for a gothic feel but he didnt achieved it anyhow. Visually this looked like a much lighter version of Daredevil. The action sequences are insulting to say the least. Lacking an ounce of originality some seem like Daredevil with a whip. And ...

Review of Catwoman (DVD)

Catwoman has been royally bashed, by reviewers, for not being Spiderman with a woman. The reviewers have been so stubborn about this, because after Spider Man 2, super hero movies, were supposed to be serious and were suppose to say something about our times. Catwoman doesn’t, and for that I am very grateful. It’s a fun, exciting romp, with enough action scenes to keep the film going. Contains Many Spoilers The Story. Patience Philips is a timid ...
...is drawn to the two. Catwoman is forced to run away, and the only way that she can do that, is from the stage! As you can imagine, she causes a lot of upset, as she ruins the fantastic play! On the top of the stage, she balances through the set pieces. Where she is met by her Tom, but this time he is full cop mode. The sexual tension between these times is electrifying. She kicks him in the crouch about 40 times. As they roll all over each other ...

...are succesful. So surely Catwoman was going to be a success too with this tried and tested formula right? Wrong! It turns out Catwoman was one of the blunders of 2004. So what went wrong I hear you ask? Well for one, the timing of the release was horrible. You can't really expect a 'super-hero' film to be successful in the same year as Spiderman 2 and a year after Daredevil can you? Another thing that went wrong with Catwoman was the script. I think, ...
...but give her super powers...hence Catwoman was born. From now on, the storyline develops into a plot for Catwoman to get her revenge and finally stop the release of Beaut Line's new product. Also, as in every other super-hero movie, there is a love story included as a sub-plot. Surprise suprise, what a joke. If there was something as bad as the plot it was the visual effects (if that's the correct phrase). Certain scenes got me reminecing certain ...

Review of Catwoman (DVD)

Catwoman is the 2004 film based on the character associated with Batman. In the 1992 film Batman Returns, Michelle Pfeiffer played Catwoman. In this 2004 film, the role is taken on by Halle Berry. The Plot Patience Phillips works for a large cosmetics company. She stumbles on the dangerous secret behind a new anti-ageing cream, and the company attempts to murder her, but she is revived by cats and with feline abilities. Takeing on the alterego ...
...from it. The idea of Catwoman actually having feline abilities is a good one, but the camera seems determined to focus more on how skimpy Halle Berry's costume is rather than anything else. Sharon Stone just looks like she's lost it and has had no direction from anyone, and the special effects are below standard. Scenes involving superhuman stunts look fake and contrived, which spoiled a lot of it for me. Behind the bad there is some good. The film ...

...Halle Berry plays the catwoman beautifully. As soon as she turns into a cat she begins to act like a cat does like spitting and hissing when frightened, she can climb up places and sit on the ledge like a cat can. One of the best parts is where she kicks the door down where a party is going on across the hall. They have been keeping her awake for nights at a time and she's had enough. She soon demolishes the music centre and squirts water over everyone. ...
...has tightfitting trousers and a small bra like top finished off with a cat mask. She looks very authentic and sleek together with the whip she uses with the grace and skill you'd expect. Halle's acting skills are great. I think she is a very good actress and she is able to change her personality exceptionally well to change into the cat. So if you want to see Halle Berry in tightfitting clothes, pouncing around and crawling up walls, then this is ...

Amazingly Warner Brothers saw fit to spend an estimated $85 million on what can only be described as something you'd find in the litter tray. Halle Berry is Patience Phillips (yes that really is her name!), a timid graphic designer who works for a cosmetics company. The company in question is on the verge of releasing a ...

The script is full of calamities from the outset and you can believe they probably wrote it as they went along. The strangely named Pitof directs the film, he loves his fast cuts and MTV style editing. His film looks jazzy but it's incredibly annoying. If ...

...Stone is plotting and framin Catwoman for murder. While all this is going on though Catwoman does have time for a little romance with a policeman. The film has a poor storyline and the computer generated graphics in the film are poor at the best of times. Halle Berry looks great but her moves and some of the fight scenes are rather far fetched. Her walk gives a great rear view but is very much over-exaggerated. Having said all of that the kids ...
