Movie Reviews

• what you may remember best aren't story-driving images and editorially massaged segments, but the quick, found moments

  by Tom Russo [Boston Globe ]

• this is another Disneynature triumph not to be missed, especially if you are a fan of these very cool cats

  by Pete Hammond [Boxoffice Magazine ]

• the visuals here are so breathtaking that a corny turn of phrase can be overlooked

  by Claudia Puig [USA Today ]

• the mercilessness of the animal kingdom is more than brought home without too much terror for youngsters

  by Kirk Honeycutt [Hollywood Reporter ]

• it's deeply involving and primally moving

  by Carrie Rickey [Philadelphia Inquirer ]

• for all its familiarizing storytelling and G rating, the movie has a few red-in-tooth-and-claw moments

  by Rachel Saltz [NY Times ]

• both educational and terrific, kid-friendly entertainment

  by Roger Moore [Orlando Sentinel ]

• astounding wildlife footage is given a kid-friendly narrative hook, but never overly cuddlified

  by Andrew Barker [Variety ]

• "Cats" is largely serious stuff; deliberately paced, thematically dark and often wistfully told, with enough moments of survival-oriented tension and dread to question its G rating

  by Gary Goldstein [LA Times ]
