Summary:
Oscar-winning director Tom Hooper transforms Andrew Lloyd Webber's record-shattering stage musical into a breakthrough cinematic event. The film reimagines the musical for a new generation with spectacular production design, state-of-the-art technology, and dance styles ranging from classical ballet to contemporary, hip-hop to jazz, street dance to tap. One of the longest-running shows in West End and Broadway history, it won seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and ran for eighteen years. "Does all this work? Well, it depends on how you feel about ... 'Cats.' Did you love the show? You'll find stuff to love here. Did you hate it? Ditto! Or maybe ... you'll have both reactions? That's possible too."--Associated Press. "The movie 'Cats' is-forgive the critical jargon-pretty good."--The New Yorker. "A bunch of well-known celebrities get turned into singing, scenery-chewing digital kitties in the utterly absurd yet oddly charming movie musical version of the Broadway hit."--USA Today.
