Cat Person Movie Reviews

Narratively simple. Purposefully ambiguous

Cat Person. I don’t understand the poor reviews for this film. I watched it on the recommendation of Mark Kermode (potentially pretentious film critic) who loved it and suggested his side kick Simon (Everyman) Mayo would love it too. So why the poor scores on rotten tomatoes and IMDB? I was intrigued. And after watching the film, Kermode was spot on. Margot, who works at her local cinema meets Robert, a regular cinema-goer at her place of work. She thinks he’s a little strange. He’s a little awkward but likes her and asks for her number. She acquiesces. There then follows a series of text message exchanges. They form a ‘relationship’ without having properly met. Margot gets images of how it’s going to play out when they finally meet. And most are not good ones. Robert thinks that this might be the start of something special. And they eventually meet and it doesn’t go according to plan. But how much of this is real and how much is imagined from their text history? No spoilers here but the interpretation of this film may not be as clear cut as either Margot or Robert might think. It is narratively simple yet its interpretation is, for me at least, purposefully ambiguous. And its all the better for it. An intriguing 8 out of ten.

Third act spoils it.

Who are we supposed to side with here?

The man who’s biggest “crime” was calling a girl, who completely ghosted him without providing any reason or closure, a “whore”… or the girl who fabricated situations and stories, broke into someone’s house, assaulted them, made false accusations, then set fire to his house?

Seriously, I was on HER side until that final act, then she just went stupidly crazy and threw all the reason to support her away.

The dude was clearly autistic, although never said in this film; it was pretty obvious by the way he both talks and has some insane obsession with Harrison Ford.

Also…. THERE’S ONLY ONE CAT AND WE SEE IT FOR 0.3 SECONDS.

A punchy and engaging film

Cat Person is a very sharply observed, darkly funny, and insightful dissection of modern dating and the complications and fears it can lead to for women.

The story is told from the perspective of college student Margot, as she embarks on a relationship with the seemingly decent Robert. For the most part the story isn’t overly original, but it’s more the perspective and creativity in telling the story that stands out, really allowing you to get into the mind of the character.

It achieves this through a solid script that balances dark comedy with serious drama and social commentary, as well as engaging lead performances from Emilia Jones and Nicholas Braun.

My only real complaint is that the pacing is far too slow throughout the film. It easily could have been twenty minutes shorter and had even more impact as a result.

Despite this I thought this film was great. Good concept with brilliant execution and a couple of solid lead performances to boot.
