I'm intrigued at the difference between IMDB and Tomatoes' user score. IMDB 2.7 with > 30,000 votes. OK. Tomatoes: 20% (296) with User vote 53% (almost 7000) A full 60 critics rate it fresh and > 50% of users "liked" it? Oh Shit. I might have to watch this. I repeat. Oh Shit.
If I could get ketamine I would watch and enjoy this movie and people who can get ketamine have watched and enjoyed this movie. There's your disparity Wanna see cat Rebel Wilson eat cockroaches with human faces? Then... Get her cat skin ripped off... To reveal some kind of sequin swim suit? Fucking sober!?
There are movies that are good, there are movies that are bad, and there are movies where you better be imbibing. I'd have a hard time taking on a well-executed Andrew Lloyd Weber sober, and my understanding is that Tom Hooper's Cats is not well-executed.
Absolutely, it would be like non-Swedes trying Surströmming.
