There is something magical about the simple fact that the CatsMovie exists, in all its obscene, absurd wonder, its terrible filmmaking choices and bursts of jaw-dropping talent
Photo: Courtesy of Universal Pictures Tom Hooper said something at the premiere of Cats that I have not been able to get out of my head. It was after the cast, a truly eclectic ensemble that includes dancers like Les Twins, acting legends like Judi Dench, and pop stars like Taylor Swift, had been introduced.
Cats is not a metaphor. It is not an allegory. The whole point of Cats is that it is entirely, improbably on the level. It is a musical about cats who sing songs about themselves, competing for the grand prize of being chosen to go to the Heaviside layer, where they’ll be reborn into the life they’ve always wanted .
Not everyone can sing, not everyone can dance, and not everyone can, well, be famous. The film attempts to work around different cast members’ strengths with varying results. Ian McKellen, as Gus The Theatre Cat, does wonderful things with a lesser song. Rebel Wilson, as Jennyanydots, performs a number that mostly involves falling down, but that’s saved by the late arrival of a cockroach chorus line.
