Oh Jesus. Is there nothing good about this film? It's an excuse to see Halle Berry walking around in a skimpy outfit (and why would you really need to? You saw her topless in Swordfish already by now) and the outfit is really poorly designed. It looks like something you could buy at a crappy sex-store. Go rent the old Batman flick with Michelle Pfeiffer instead.

This is the movie i was hoping the butterfly effect would be... so goshdarn BAD i didn't want to leave the theatre, to see how it trumped itself next. only a two out of ten; one for berry's ass shaking all the hell over the place for 90 minutes, the other for Ms. Cheeze, Sharon Stone, who, it turns out, seems to have really liked Al Pacino in the Recruit. If you have no shame, see this movie, and if you do, stay across the hall with Spidey.… Expand

Wow! I mean, I expected this film to be good, with Halle Berry, one of the best young actresses out there, and Sharon Stone, a true tried and true screen beauty vet, as top billing. But truly this all blew me away! Incredible fight scenes, great humour, and a touching love story all come together to make the movie event of the summer so far. Move out of the way, Spiderman, a new movie has come to sit atop the top webs of superhero movies, and her name is Catwoman!… Expand

This has got to be the most depressing, nauseating film I have ever watched. There's no spark to it whatsoever that says this will be a fun movie like Spider-man 2. You could barely discern anything happening in action scenes because Pitof decided to blurr and fadt cut them to hide the fact a male stunt double was used in place of Halle Berry.

I Liked the movie very very much the only part that I do not like about the movie is that she has a really dorky costume.

Could this movie be worse? If you see Hale Berry, tell her she owes me $6.50.

A mediocre action film, and not really something to waste one's 'critical energy' upon, i.e. "horrible", "despicable", "a stinker", and the like. If one must go out of one's way to watch such stuff, why look at it through the same critical lens as though one were preparing to watch "Gandhi" or "The Best Years of Our Lives"? One SHOULD safely assume that a movie named "Catwoman", advertised with a poster of leather-clad dominatrix Halle Berry, is not exactly Oscar material, like her "Monster's Ball".… Expand

I can't believe Halle Berry decided to be in this. A disaster in every way possible. So over the top/overdone. What a joke.

By far the most horrible pile of junk every made. All copies of this movie should be burned.

Great movie! Fun, okay action, nice special affects, very well acted by the major's! This is catwoman its supposed to be over the top, LOL. Could have had a bit better directing, but over all very attractive and entertaining. Not for the non-comic fans however, it's not going to fit in anyone's box, gotta take it for what it is. Great movie, lighten up people for goodness sake! Sheesh!… Expand

!!Just a ...dissaster!!

See "Spider-Man 2" again. Rent DVD copies of "Batman" and "The Crow." Go see Halle Berry naked in either "Swordfish" or "Monster's Ball." I implore you NOT to see this movie, a slap in the face of the superhero genre with enough awful dialogue, awful performances, awful music and awful direction. Any director who only uses one name to be credited for a movie just has to have made an awful movie. Did I forget to mention that this is utterly AWFUL!… Expand

Yes, as all have prefaced, this movie is bad. Just nothing redeeming about it. Sharon Stone is her usual flat self and Bratt of course plays what else...a cop. The real flaw that I found (out of quite a handful) was the cinematography. And the obvious computer animations of Berry as she jumped buidings and other ridiculous things. Let's face it: this movie was a bad idea from the start. Perhaps you were like me and felt that it could be decent (well that is before I saw the trailer). But take it from me and the rest of those sorry enough to have sat through this: avoid this.… Expand

Halle Berry good, movie awful.

Suckeroo cat nip.

Halle swallowed a fur ball when she decided to make this crap.

great movie special effects need work and one thing since when does someone who works in the art department of a cosmetics giant live in the ghetto?

Too many things were wrong with this movie but here's a few: - This is not the Marvel Catwoman... the character name, city, persona where all changed. The writers never read the comic book or saw Batman Returns - The plot was so ridiculous I could have sworn that the whole movie was made to test the patience of the movie goer - The cat suit - Worst villian ever developed - The stupid c.g. Cats ....I could go on forever people.… Expand

Let me start of by saying this movie is not for everybody i would say unless you are a hardcore comic book fan or super hero movie fan then dont bother watching it but if like me you simply want a good fast paced and witty superheroin movie this is the one. True as it maybe cat woman does not even come close to sam raimi's masterpiece that is spiderman catwoman is worth goin to see.Halle Berry gives it her all in this film sadly it is let down by the villian Sharon stone is pathetic and lifeless i suspect she would prefer to be the one wearing the tight leather cat outfit. Summery Worth a chance.… Expand

That large quantities of money are spent on making stuff like this, instead of feeding starving children in obscure regions of the world, shows just how weird our culture is. That I spent $10 to see it shows just how stupid I've become due to movies like this.

I left this one alone for awhile because the bashing the critic's gave it, I don't usually agree with these sub-humans. BUT I WAS AN IDIOT for taking their advice, i've just seen this on dvd and it's no where near as bad as they made it out to be. Berry is hot! the story didn't quite gel, but who cares! we have halle in torn leather pants and bikini top and a whip to boot,kick ass and that ass...what an ass! what more do you want? ...oh and halle berry's acting was above board as usual.… Expand

Lighten up, people. This movie is great fun and a totally unique take on the Catwoman myth.

I wish it was at least hilariously bad. It's just bad.

Oh my! I saw this movie BEFORE seeing the MetaCritic scores, and couldn't believe how savagely it's been treated! Of course it's not a great picture, but it's really not that bad. The special effects of Halle Berry's "super powers" are unique and fun. How could most of these same critics rate this worse than last year's "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle". Now THAT was a bad movie!… Expand

Pure fan. more honest than Spider-man 2 which I way found overrated!

Oh my God, I never thought I would say this... but The Cat In The Hat with all its apparent fur balls was better than this crap. Avoid at all costs as it is an unmitigated disasster. The audience was walking out during the showing.

Not the worst movie out in theaters now (that honor goes to Ms. Hilary Duff's "movie"), but this is definitely the worst comic book/superhero movie yet. After last year's awful "Gothika", Halle Berry has effectively wiped the memory of "Monster's Ball" from our minds and is either purposely trying to make only bad movies from now on or trying to acquire another mansion. I can think of no other reason as to why she would sign up for this turkey. The plot itself (which is too stupid to get into) is really lame, the visual effects are cheesy and unconvincing, the romance sub-plot with Benjamin Bratt is cliched riddled, another sub-plot involving Frances Conroy as some sort of cat mystic is laughably unoriginal, and Sharon Stone is absolutely awful hamming it up as the villian and she's not even bad in a campy way but just really boring and proves that "Casino" was just a one-off. The script relies on all lazy cliches and genre expectations with little of the highly stylized action mega-force of "X2" or the emotional human element so beautifully portrayed in "Spiderman 2". A huge misfire that is on par with "Lost in Space", "The Avengers" & "Adventures of Pluto Nash" as a big budget turkey that deserves its "un-success".… Expand

This movie just plain sucked. we laughed at it for a while, but couldn't take it for long and left after about an hour. i can't begin to imagine what halle berry or her agent were thinking when she signed on for this one.

So the dialogue was laughable, but i thought the overall look of the film was pretty awesome. Despite the bad reviews, this movie was lots of fun, and much bettter than Spiderman 2.

Wow, and I thought Hilary Duff's films were bad.

What in the h-e-c-k was Halle Berry thinking? Y-U-C-K.

If you're going to use a skin-care corporation as the bad guys, in a movie where cats are involved, how the hell do you avoid the issue of animal testing? Instead of the stupefying idea about a skin cream that turns your face into granite, how about a smaller scale and more humanistic narrative, in which, Catwoman (Halle Berry) saves her friends and other members of the lab menagerie from imminent death. It makes no sense that a company would set itself up for future lawsuits. Halle Berry is miscast because she's no Uma. All that heavy editing can't hide the fact that she lacks the physicality and coordination to perform action scenes convincingly. In a film like "Catwoman", the question isn't if Berry can act, it's can she fight, and somehow look cool in a ridiculous costume. That's no, on both accounts. We can accept the secret identity being kept intact by an accesory (Clark Kent had his glasses, and Patience has her black mask), but in "Catwoman", Patience becomes Catwoman, sans costume, in the same vicinity as Tom, during the ode to "Rollercoaster". Pitof shows us Patience's POV in rescuing a child, as if trying to protect her identity...from the audience? Patience must look cat-like on that ferris wheel, and if we saw her perform the act of heroism, director Pitof would have a harder time in explaining how Tom is oblivious to Patience's secret identity. To salvage some semblance of plausibility, Tom should've asked, "Are you a gymnast?" "Catwoman" is Eukanuba-nal. … Expand

Even before the movie came out, people said it was going to be bad. When I saw the preview, I thought it was going to be bad. I got in with a free ticket, thinking I would get a free laugh ... and I watched it ... and I LOVED it! Action, thrills, laughs. I enjoyed every minutes. You have to watch it knowing this is NOT the Batman catwoman we all know. It's a whole new ballgame.

Guilty-pleasure time: every movie buff needs at least one movie a year to try to defend, Quixote-like, against the masses; last year for me it was the instantly-notorious Gigli, and this year, it's this! A superhero movie whose villain's motivation replicates that of Susan Cabot's in Roger Corman's unwatchable 1959 cheaporama The Wasp Woman, but with a lot more wit and style isn't exactly a major cinematic achievement (and yes, a certain webslinger's return engagement DOES put it to shame)...but after sitting through such pretentious, offensively self-important summer schlock as I, Robot, King Arthur, The Day After Tomorrow and Troy, director Pitof's brand of pure, gleeful trashiness left me purring a lot more often than I was hissing. He's trying too hard to be this week's Michael Bay/McG clone (get a first name, guy!) but at least he seems to respect and enjoy his stars' faces as much as his special effects. And what faces: Sharon Stone looks better than she has in years, while Halle Berry, though admittedly not defining the role the way Michelle Pfeiffer did, appealingly blends sensuality, vulnerability and mystery. (And let's keep things in perspective, by the way. If Olivier, Gibson AND Branagh can all be believable and credible Hamlets, why can't there be more than one viable Catwoman...including , of course, Julie Newmar, Lee Merriwether and Eartha Kitt?) If some folks believe honestly that Berry should give back her Monster's Ball Oscar for her appearances in James Bond and X-Men movies, as well as this, I'll consider it...provided Nicolas Cage also rescinds HIS Oscar for all the Jerry Bruckheimer-produced junk he did after Leaving Las Vegas! One final note, Bat-geeks...quit carping about how inaccurate Berry's cat-costume is; I mean, GEEZ, guys, it's HALLE BERRY, for God's sake...and she's wearing a body-hugging Spandex outfit that shows off lots of her flesh! Maybe you boys really DO need to get out more often!… Expand

Catwoman is average until Halle Berry becomes Catwoman. After that, the movie reaches new depths of badness. Terrible acting, cheesy writing, and bad direction top it all off. Avoid at all costs.

I gave points for halle. Her acting was good, but the movie suked. At least its not the worst movie of the summer....yet.

At first, I was hesitant about seeing Catwoman since everybody was saying how rotten it was. I thought I would try it out. I really liked it. The special effects were great, and Halle did an excellent job at playing the role. I think people are waaay to picky!! I certainly kept my attention. It was more exciting than the Bourne Supremacy!

Trash. Ghettoized Catwoman VS blonde model type.

The trick is to see it on a plane! Really, everyone has pooped so royally on this movie - it wasn't that bad. It's got a firm sense of style that I think makes it watchable. Halle Berry is likeable as both cat and non-cat, and really kind of exciting in her cat swagger. The villains are aptly over-cooked. Alex Borstein is a satisfying sidekick. What was everyone expecting exactly?!

The WORST movie I've ever seen. Shallow, empty, bad spectacle with nothing behind. Pitof keeps moving the camera with no sense in this stupid an-hou-an-a-half videoclip.

Despite what some people say, I thought this movie had pretty decent action, and an ok story. H.B. is hot!

Halle Berry's worst carnival - "z class" junk movie party of the century.

Halle Berry is nice is leather, but....that's really the only plus. Even the people who gave this a 9 only seem able to cite that as a positive. i found myself cracking up at the sheer stupidity and absurdity of the movie...which I don't think it was going for. I'd give this a one, were it not for the unintentional laughs scored. Oh, and despite all its absurdity, it is extremely cliche. If you like kitties, leather, an Berry, then give this a glimpse. If not--stay far far away.… Expand

Pretty bad movie. This is probably one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. The only reason I gave it a 3 is that I thought Halle Berry and Benjamin Bratt were pretty good in the movie. Sharon Stone is REALLY BAD in the movie and the music that plays a long with the action scenes is awful!! This would have been a fun movie if it had a director we even have heard of!

Mihalis, "Pure fan" of what, garbage? Comic fans are going to revile this completely unfaithful crap. This thing is only likeable by the wow-I-hope-they make-a-Gigli2 crowd.

Ha once again marvel seems to outshine Dc comics spider man 2 is amazing and just real every one can't relate to him, cat woman was okay becos Ms berry can do no wrong, marvel has proven why they are number one in comics and movies with two words being real.

To use the most famous actors and actresses of the time for the "comic book" roles is the dumbest idea that some folks in hollywood are making. spiderman was great, because it stars toby mcquire and not tom cruise. these comic book characters are precious for many fans and to the people who identify their childhood with them. they are not just action film subjects to be mingled with. the difference between michael keaton as batman and george clooney as a batman should be obvious to hollywood, if it's not then they should just look at how well the films were received and compare the two...on one hand you have keaton as a perfect batman and on the other hand you have that E.R idiot "acting" as if he is batman. now, who in their correct mind decided that halle was a cat woman?...the fact that she is doing well as an actress doesnt mean she is "cat woman"!!!!...how idiotic is it to offer such a role to an oscar winner and how equally amazingly stupid for halle to accept this film? well....cats have nine lives they say but halle has scratched off at least seven lives by being involved in this dissaster. ay caramba!....the only way to save this film from the bottom of the kitty liter is to turn it into a porn flick...after all halle won her oscar by faking an orgasm.… Expand

Very silly. Sharon Stone gave a good performance as a villian, but was clearly wasted in this flick.

Best hallie berry movie she is the queen of all catwomen people don't listen to all the jerks cause critics are stuck up. this movie had greath eveything can't wait to get this movie on dvd!!! can't wait for a sequel because it well be even better al the people who gave this movie a good review knows good movies GO BUY THIS ON DVD NOW!!! see it for your self.

Oh my, where do I begin? Well Ii could tell you that this is a well made action movie, but obviously I would be lying my head off. So instead, I want to tell you the truth. Are you ready? Here it comes........"DONT SEE THIS MOVIE" Let me tell you why. If you see this movie and are over the age of 16, you will end up hating yourself for letting yourself rot for 104 minutes without getting back, except an increased feeling of wanting to get revenge on Hollywood. They say that it is very hard to get your script into a movie. Well, after seing this movie, I think a one legged monkey could write a better script without either pen or paper. The fact that Halle Berry even uses a male stunt double, makes me lose all respect for both her and this movie. Besides the stunt double, the movie still sucks. The dialog sucks, the acting is not even present and the action looks sloppy and poorly thought through. This movie actually made me like The Core better, which is pretty much impossible.… Expand

Halle Berry looks fantastic as always, but the movie itself is HORRID. The CGI and special effects look cheap, the acting is robot-like, the plot is ludicrous and the execution is even worse. Don't bother with this piece of trash people. AVOID IT unless you wanna laugh your butt off at Berry's ridiculous costume.

One star for Halle Berry's body, and that'll do it for this dud.

So overall, Catwoman is pretty bad. It is far removed from the comics, has a terrible story, a main character who makes emo Peter look decent. The choices made here are baffling. It is like the writers did not even read the comics and do not know what makes Catwoman Catwoman. Rather than getting an exciting action flick we get a sexy/club themed movie that sucks. Catwoman may arouse some people but if you look past that you’ll see the major problems with this movie. Catwoman is a mess due to the terrible choices made by the filmmakers and it can only be enjoyed as guilty pleasure. So unless you enjoy looking at Hal Berry in her sexy cat suit then I would say this is a definite skip.… Expand

I found this film great. It is a very good origin film. It shows how she got her power, how her life changed, and what happens when someone messes with her. I thought that the costume kept with catwoman's personality and that Halle Berry played her role very good. I don't know why a lot of people did not like this film.

Catwoman isn't even really a movie. It's a music video that somebody expanded out under two hours, by padding out shots of Halle Berry pinup fodder.

I couldnt watch more than 30 minutes without getting bored.
The Plot isnt catchy, hate the catwoman outfit, a really bad movie

When Michelle Pfeiffer is depressed she watch this movie.

Imma be honest, as much as Catwoman is may favorite Superhero /Antihero of all time, this film was just B.A.D, I originally saw this when i was 12 and didn't know a bad movie from a good one. BUT, seeing it today makes me want to jump in a time machine just to get my $7.25 back. Like how do directors screw up source material? Anybody coulda went to wikipedia, look up Catwoman, and write a better script than this "movie". I give this a two because Halle Berry would made a believable Catwoman if the script wasnt trash, and the i absoulutly love the music in this movie.… Expand

This movie is horrible. The only reason it gets a 3 is because at sometimes its unintentionally hilarious. Halle Berry is horrible in the role and the costume looks ridiculous. The dialogue is poorly written, the music is strange, and the battle scenes are just plain awkward. If you're looking for a Catwoman movie, see Batman Returns.
