Catwoman
CatwomanQuote: Catwoman is a 2004 American superhero film and quasi-spinoff of the Batman film series directed by Pitof and released by Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow Pictures on July 23, 2004.
The film was inspired by the DC Comics character of the same name, who is traditionally a supervillain and love interest of the superhero Batman. This story features a completely new character, Patience Phillips, donning the Catwoman costume.
The film stars Halle Berry, Sharon Stone, Benjamin Bratt, Lambert Wilson, Frances Conroy, and Alex Borstein. It was poorly received by critics and audiences. Utter garbage. :razz: D+

The costume is ridiculous to start with, the acting is bizarre at best (Berry and Stone deliver a one-two punch that is too bad to even be considered campy) and Pitof is maybe the most untalented director ever. His Vidocq was already a shame but this one is even worse. It doesn't play like a movie but a collage of endless MTV videos one after another. The basketball scene was the worst scene I have seen in years. And what about these ridiculous visual effects? Those endless cgi camera moves through the skycrapers of Lake City were so annoying. And there is not one well made action scene in it. What a catastrophy (pun intended) F

Catwoman - B-
Good fun. Halle is damn sexy. The story is silly. The costume is fine. The script isnt too good, but who cares.

A train wreck of a film. Terrible from start to finish. One of the worst of 2004.

What do you mean? Shall I list how terrible it was? It was a disaster. A mess from the beginning. And it got worse. By the end, one had to marvel at the sheer audacity of a studio to release this Cataclyismic disaster (pun intened). With a visual style that was more like a music video cum video game it was easily one of the worst of 2004. Rates as a 3.4/10 or a D+

It's garbage. It's not the worst film I've ever seen. If it was, it would be an F.

If a movie fails on every level it wants to achieve, then it is an F. But I've seen worse too in 2004 and it's called Van Helsing...

Even if I lost all will to live and took drug after drug after drug and got drunk out of my freakin' mind, and lost 98% of my brain, I STILL wouldn't give Catwoman an "A". You'll rue the day you crossed me, Artur.

Well im suprised you liked it also Arthur, but, i am not complaining :wink: I lowered mine to a 'B+' from an 'A', but i still love this film, its becasue of the cheesiness and leather and easy storylike that its brilliant!
I wonder how many bandwagon junkies will "all of a sudden" like it because Arthur does :wink:

You know, upon second viewing. This movie ain't all that bad! I'd give it a B+ on second viewing. Maybe an A-.
The bABA has spoken!

But I become confused because I love AvP so much, which is why I think everything else has only grossed 80 million domestically, thus the reasoning behind a sequel for AvP because every movie did that much!!!! WHy can't you understand that???????????????????????????????????????
