Summary: Delightful Movie And A Must For Christina Ricci Fans
Review: A cat (in the literal sense of the word) "witnesses" a kidnapping, and one of his owners' (Christina Ricci) heads to FBI HQ to file a report. Naturally,(at least behind her back) they laugh at her information, but soon appoint one of their own to head the investigation. Kitty had some clues on him (literally), and the team decides to tail him (pardon the pun), hoping he would lead them to where the clues came from, which proves easier said than done. He ends up making the agents look like a bunch of bafoons. Will the agents catch the kidnappers? Will they even figure out there was a kidnapping? Will I ever get to arm wrestle Brooke Shields? To get the first two answered, you'll need to see the movie. The latter will depend on if her agent will let Brooke accept the challenge. If you want a movie the whole family can get a good laugh in, you will want to order this one. The film is a comedy and has good action with a brush of suspense. One of the cutest scenes is when the butcher and the security guard "run across the field" so to speak and kiss. If you're a Ricci fan, you'll see plenty of her charming self throughout the movie. Would make an ideal Birthday/Christmas gift for anyone especially a Christina Ricci fan.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Lamentable remake of Disney classic.
Review: A sad,sorry remake of the 1965 classic which contains none of its warmth and charm. Watching remakes such as this only highlights the superiority of the original and seems to elevate it even further in quality.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Ewwww
Review: As a cat lover, I was inclined to go see this movie. Instead of a funny cat flick, I found a movie with an unbelievable plot and WAY to much violence. My advice: Don't waste your time on this trashy film.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: average remake
Review: Disney's tepid remake of the Hayley Mills classic works somewhat, although the story has been shifted to modern times it creaks like it belongs in the 60's.

Patti Randall (Christina Ricci) discovers a wristwatch around her wily old cat's neck. "HEL" has been scratched into it. Patti realises that no-one will listen to her plea, so she completes the inscription with "HELP" and takes it to FBI agent Zeke Kelso (Doug E. Doug). The investigation begins....

The supporting players outshine the leads here. Among the actors of note are Bess Armstrong, Dyan Cannon, Peter Boyle, Michael McKean and George Dzundra.

****Interesting casting note....Dean Jones, who played Zeke Kelso in the original, plays Dyan Cannon's rich husband in this version.****

Fine, if a little inferior to the original.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: That Darn Cat
Review: I don't see how they could've made us wait this long for this great movie on DVD. There probably won't be any good special features, but it will still be great. I'm not gonna give any spoilers except that it's about a cat (DUH!). It's a great movie. Fun for the family. (One of my favorite movies...lol.)

PEACE OUT

Summary: Darn Remakes!
Review: I have always loved the older version staring Hayley Mills and was curious to see how the remake measured up. Need less to say, I was not impressed. More often than not, I find sequels and remakes to be worse than the originals. This is just another example and the only outstanding part I found really funny was Zeke trying to think and act like a cat.

It's likabe for kids because it's an "up-to-date" version. But in my opinion the older movie is much more entertaining, especially for adults. Besides it follows the book a lot closer than the newer production. I recommend seeing the old classic verses this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I liked this video because it involved a cat!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A good movie for all ages
Review: I never saw the original "That Darn Cat" but this version of it was great. Everything about this movie was good. Too bad there aren't more movies and TV shows like this one.
