Movie Reviews of Cats Don't Dance
Movie Review: A wonderful movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful film that was unfortunately over shadowed by Disney. The movie is fast paced, up beat, and full of great songs. Cats Don't Dance is a great film for people of all ages with many caricatures of famous actors such as Clark Gables, and W.C. Fields just to name a few. Unfortunately it was doomed to obscurity from the start, due to both Disney and poor advertisement. Over all it is a great film that I would highly suggest to anyone.
Summary of Cats Don't Dance
Actually, cats do dance, and there are a lot of little cat feet tapping all over this odd animated film. Complaints about originality can't be leveled here; the film works within the confines of the musical genre, but there's never really been anything like this. Danny the cat is from Kokomo, and he's got a short list of things he has to do to become a big star in Hollywood. Unfortunately, he's unaware that animals, even talented ones, aren't even considered for showy parts in films. They're considered window dressing for humans, especially big stars such as Darla Dimple, the unlikely antagonist here. The music is by Randy Newman, and it's not really his best, but toe tapping may occur. The animation is reminiscent of an upgraded Animaniacs, and there's a frenetic, jittery sense to the scenes (mostly dealing with slapstick humor). Older fans of animation or bygone Hollywood will have much more to appreciate here than small children, but that's refreshing in itself. --Keith SimantonThe rags-to-riches story of Danny a talented cat whose lifelong goal of movie stardom is sidetracked when he discovers only humans get the good roles in Hollywood. On the big screen animals can bark meow or moo but cats don't dance. Danny vows to break through the "species barrier" and prove that dreams really can come true.Running Time: 120 min.System Requirements: Running Time 75 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY Rating: G UPC: 053939643022
