Movie Info
Patience Philips (Halle Berry) seems destined to spend her life apologizing for taking up space. Despite her artistic ability -- she has a more than respectable career as a graphic designer for Hedare Beauty, a Goliath cosmetics company -- Patience is excruciatingly shy, quick to take blame, and, not surprisingly, more than a little depressed at the end of the day. This comes to somewhat of a screeching halt when Patience not only inadvertently lands herself in the middle of a corporate

You're left with flashes of mis-spent promise: the feline mysticism; the cosmetics-industry intrigue; the idea of electrocuting Lambert Wilson's unctious corporate cad.
Top CriticObviously, no one involved in this disaster cares anything at all about Catwoman.
When is a cat a dog? When it's Catwoman.
The kind of movie that almost guarantees the loss of a few I.Q. points.
This is barely a film -- it's more like a music video-slash- TV-commercial- slash-computer game.
Instead of basking in the considerable charms Berry has to offer, the director, Pitof ... treats them like accessories to the picture's flashy, senseless cutting and overused special effects.
[Provides] a safety net for every person who ever directs a superhero movie for the rest of time: "Well, that completely sucked, but it was no Catwoman".
This movie is kitty litter.
From the looks of French director Pitof's poorly realized effort of bringing DC Comics' "Catwoman to the big screen, it seems unlikely that a sequel for the feline superhero/villain.
Widely considered a terrible movie, but if you enjoy the camp genre, it's a must-see. It is, in fact, camp on a catnip high.
There is NOTHING redeeming about this film.
Hide this Catwoman on a hot tin roof -- or anywhere else no one is likely to see it.
Rated NFD (Not For the Discerning).
Where is Batman when you really need him?
An almost unmitigated disaster, this major studio production with a major star in the lead (the Oscar-winning Halle Berry) comes across like a direct-to-video production, complete with ultra lame computer-generated effects and clueless direction ...
I'm pretty sure an actual cat could have made a better film.
Much better than it had to be and a lot better than many Internet critics, eager to hate it, wanted it to be.
One life down, eight to go.
An avalanche of de-clawed idiocy.
'Claro ejemplo de la forma en que no se debe gastar el dinero en caprichos de productores a los que les importa un comino la inteligencia de la audiencia'
The main question to ask is why did we need this project?
No other Catwoman has looked so good in a cat suit. Beyond that, the whole affair is pretty dumb, even by the goofy standards of superhero flicks.
Silly but not-nearly-campy-enough.
Tries to be funny, tries to be S&M. Directed by a guy called Pitof. Me-owwww!
If 'The star has a great rack!' is the best one can say for a movie, it better be a porno.

- Laurel Hedare: No. My advice to you, George, quit the self-tanning. Stop eating Viagra like they're vitamins. Resist the urge to date children born the same day they invented the cell phone. For once, in you miserable like, George, [kicks him] be a man!

Catwoman doesn't deserve all the interrogation and outmost hate that it gets. Yes it's a film that you can look down your nose and laugh at, and there are reasonable flaws that can be use as reasons to dislike it. I dont know why I enjoyed this movie myself. I just did. As a critic, its my duty to say "i'm always right". This is the ONLY movie where I might have to criticise my own opinion. I dont know what made me enjoy it, or how it achieved it, but it entertained me.
