It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

I recently purchased this emotional journey on DVD. It arrived in the post a couple of days ago, and tonight I sat down with my family to watch what wonders dreams are made of. I was not disappointed. Within five minutes my mother turned to me, and said calmly, "Don't buy anymore DVDs". My sister was quite emphatic throughout about her feelings. She begged me to turn it off, but I did not. She soon changed her tune when the two young men began to develop a special bond in the swimming pool. We watched on in awe. Emotions ran high. We laughed, we cried. By the end, I was sure something felt familar. The location, the level of quality, the Eric Roberts. It turns out this was made by the same people as 2014's biggest blockbuster Bigfoot Versus D.B.Cooper. Well done guys, lightning does strike twice!

At my age I just wanna grab a beer and sit down to a good movie, not much to ask! A Talking Cat, seemed like a good idea at the time so I chucked it into the DVD player, let me tell you, I was unprepared for such an exciting roller-coaster of emotion. The great Eric Roberts voice's Duffy (A talking cat) in an audio style which (from my submarine days)reminds me of the underwater telephone! The gist of the story is about 2 Brady bunch type families who are brought together by Duffy's Mary Poppins-like magical powers. Duffy has a near fatal accident near the end, but survives with the help of a badly fitted bandage wrapped around his head. I can recommend this film to anyone, its almost perfect, beautiful photography, faultless performances by an A-list cast, a plot that makes 'The usual suspects' seem like an episode of Teletubbies, special effects that would give George Lucas a few sleepless nights and Eric Roberts proving that he is up there with Olivier, Gielgud and Heston.

No, the title is not a joke. I literally fell asleep. I wish I was joking here. It has never happened to me before, not even when I was a little kid, but it happened; I fell asleep. This movie is so boring, it has absolutely nothing going for it. The mouth animation that shows us the cat is speaking is dumb, because it only shows us... a moving mouth that is black inside with no tongue, teeth or anything. I'm serious here. I could literally do better than that and I am very bad in movie editing.The constant reuse of scenes and music is horrendous We see some exact same scenes be used a dozen times throughout the story, even the movements of characters like the cat! And the pacing is awful. A third of the entire screen time is just the movie setting up a scene. There is even a scene where the fat guy drives with his car which takes a minute for him to get to his destination with nothing happening! (That's the part where I fell asleep by the way) The long scenes with very little development also really don't help here. The movie could've been 15 minutes and still have the exact same story.And the constant noise of the same cheery music, even while that doesn't fit the tone most of the time doesn't work either.And the story? It is all based around one gimmick; a cat that can talk once to a person and that cat uses that to help those around him. Now this can be amazing, but we got absolutely nothing. We don't even see the cat do things, like poking people to get them to do something. The only thing he did was hanging around here and there and then give a few half-assed hints. Some didn't even make sense, like the girl having to look on her computer that suddenly showed an article that would help her out, even though the cat remarked he doesn't understand anything of computers and we didn't see him open that page. What?And other than that, the story got nothing going for it. The characters are one-dimensional, they almost only use clichéd lines, there are no jokes and even entire plot threads get forgotten; for instance, in one plot thread there is this girl who wants to go to college because she is smart and good at programming but her mother is too poor. But then the mother gets something that potentially would make them rich enough to move to a bigger house... but not to spend it on her daughter's college. The daughter doesn't even remark it. She never even tell about it anymore. It was just dropped and forgotten, even after the rich guy offered her a job and thus could potentially pay for her studies. On a side note, even the programming stuff didn't make any sense. First she said she made a source engine. Okay, cool. But later the rich guy said that the girl made an application. Uh... there is a difference between a source engine and an application, they're not entirely the same... at all. Great. And programming is normally done through iteration. She could probably only test on her own wardrobe, so it is very unlikely that it would work anywhere else so iteration by testing with dozens if not hundreds of wardrobes is necessary. But nope, not even the genius programmers cannot think of that.And the conclusion of the story? Don't worry kids, your parents remarrying isn't a big deal. O, and that cat without owners is staying and not leaving... because. Heh, maybe those Abrams-flares really did manipulate him.In short; stay away from this thing. It will only hurt you and damage your brain.

Wow, this movie is truly an exceptional work of art - it's heartwarming and heart-breaking in equal measure.How incredible to see the world through a cat's eyes - and not just any cat! Duffy is a cat of unusual depth and wisdom.The special effects are unmatched in excellence, except by the acting. And the soundtrack? If Mozart played the synthesizer, he would write this! Truly, this is the film of the year.Quote: "Is that a cat? I wonder what it wanted!""You know, I've spent a lifetime working in office buildings, drinking coffee. I'm no Humphrey Bogart.""I am too good sometimes." -Cat
