      Audience Reviews for Tomcats

      • Aug 14, 2012
        Insulting "Tomcats" won't do much good since it solely exists as a way to gross out its audience. It's as depraved and grotesque an effort as you'd expect. The humor is vile and insultingly uninspired and virtually every character is annoying and/or unlikable. As well, the acting is mediocre and the production as a whole looks horrible, featuring subpar camerawork and laughable editing transitions. That being said, "Tomcats" isn't the lowest that the romantic comedy genre has had to offer, but it may be the most pathetic.

        It won't win any awards and I'm probably giving this a higher review than it deserves, but it wasn't the horrible film I remember. It's one of those out there films that gets progressively more insane until the cliché riddled conclusion. The cast are fun and they give everything to the one dimensional roles. The film outstays its welcome and it just overcome a clunky film script that's quite mean spirited. Jake Busey deserved a better film career and sadly films like this weren't the most ideal choices. Jerry O'Connell struggled with his film choices and with this and Buying the Cow he vanished from our screens. The teenage market deserved a better film and while I thought this was a funny film, it was also a mess. Filmmakers should watch more of these failed films to understand what works and what doesn't. 02/05/2020

        when I first saw this movie I found it great now witha more grown up taste I didn't like it as much but to have a nice movie night and have fun and still something to make the girlfriend happy!! But I still enjoy it and the music I still like it a lot!!! Seven years ago, a bunch of friends make a bet that'll give the last remaining bachelor a ton of money. Now, after losing a ton of money at a Vegas Casino, Michael Delaney has to quickly get his friend Kyle married so that he can collect the prize money to pay back his debt.
