Movie Night: Catwoman.



Review #216: Catwoman.

Cast
Halle Berry (Patience Phillips / Catwoman), Benjamin Bratt (Detective Tom Lone), Lambert Wilson (George Hedare), Frances Conroy (Ophelia Powers), Alex Borstein (Sally), Sharon Stone (Laurel Hedare), Michael Massee (Armando), Byron Mann (Wesley), Kim Smith (Drina), and Peter Wingfield (Dr. Ivan Slavicky) Directed by Pitof.

Review
Catwoman has been one of Batman's long running adversaries, and she has been adapted to film before, being played by Julie Newmar, Lee Meriwether, Eartha Kitt, Michelle Pfeiffer, and most recently Anne Hathaway, so it shouldn't be hard to make a good Catwoman film. Shouldn't be. The first flaw is that it is severely dull at times, such as the beginning, where it trudges along slowly. Then the action comes in and it is...pretty boring. It isn't memorable by any means. The acting is meh, not really interesting, the only one who tries is Halle Berry, but not even she can save this film. The film is boring, undeveloped, and unsuccessful in its approach. After 8 years, it still is a big flop. One more question: Who names their kid Patience?

Overall, I give it 2 out of 10 stars.
