1.5/5
"Los fans del personaje se tendrán que enfrentar (duramente) al hecho de que se trata de una versión –muy- libre que la aleja del todo de Batman."
Cinenganos
Alex Ramirez
"the cosmetics at the plot's centre do at least serve as a convenient metaphor for everything which is wrong with this shallow, superficial film."
Movie Gazette
Anton Bitel
"Oops! A costume catastrophe."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
"Silly but not-nearly-campy-enough."
PopMatters
Cynthia Fuchs
1/5
"It’s not nearly as awful as
Batman & Robin
, but it’s worse off than, say,
Steel
. So you can see we’re in a fairly terrible area here."
eFilmCritic.com

"Halle just hacked a hairball all over the summer boxoffice. And it ain’t pretty."
EDGE Boston
David Foucher
1.5/4
"...a repeat viewing of
Spider-Man 2
would undoubtedly be a better idea..."
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
1.5/4
"Overtly bad (and unintentionally funny) enough to become a camp classic."
TheMovieBoy.com
Dustin Putman
2/4
"Feels as if it’s been pieced together from a dozen or so
Ally McBeal
parodies posing as hip-hop videos."
Slant Magazine

"Those looking for anything approximating a storyline along with their jigglefest will just have to keep dreaming."

"I've never cared much for cats anyway, but this clinches it. Next time I see one, I'm going to kick it into the river."

D-
"There isn't an original bone in its body, but that isn't even the problem: no one in the production had any idea how to rip off better films with any degree of competence."
Film Blather
Eugene Novikov
1.5/4
"...doesn’t quite cut it as the escapist comic caper...this tepid and tired movie has all the appeal of a box of stale Tender Vittles"
Movie Eye
Frank Ochieng
D-
"Less like a comic-book movie than a feature-length S&M video...Let's just hope Warner Bros. gets this feline spayed to prevent a sequel."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
.5/5
"Catwoman is not destined to have nine lives."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
1/4
"Despite its feline pretensions,
Catwoman
belongs to another animal family -- it's either a dog or a turkey. Take your pick."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
3/4
"What’s not to love about a gal with a whip, stilettos, and sharp rhinestone claws? Guilty pleasure be thy name!"
Palo Alto Weekly
Jeanne Aufmuth
4/10
"No other Catwoman has looked so good in a cat suit. Beyond that, the whole affair is pretty dumb, even by the goofy standards of superhero flicks."
DVDTown.com
John J. Puccio
"I thought Mr. Kitty would have a hard time keeping up with the plot, but he's coughed up hair- balls that were more complex."
Light Views
John Larsen
1/4
"'Claro ejemplo de la forma en que no se debe gastar el dinero en caprichos de productores a los que les importa un comino la inteligencia de la audiencia'"
Moviola
Jorge Avila Andrade
3/5
"As I said, I know most people don't like this flick, but I think it is worth at least catching the matinee."
3BlackChicks Review
Kamal 'The Diva' Larsuel
1.0/4.0
"Watching claws being scraped against a chalkboard apparently isn’t any more enjoyable than listening to it."
MovieCrypt.com
Kevin A. Ranson
2/5
"So much emphasis is put on style and coolness that good, honest storytelling goes down the drain."
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr

"Swordfish; Gothika; this howler. Best Actress winner Halle Berry is getting dangerously close to exhausting her nine Hollywood lives."
FilmStew.com
Larry Carroll
2/5
"The film drags at 91 minutes, filled with dead air that should be crackling with pulp energy."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
"Eww, it smells like cats in here. Not that I don't love cats, but I don't want my supposed-to-be sleek and stylish comic-book movies reeking like that."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
1/5
"A profusion of typical comic book storyline clichés we have all seen a thousand times before in other films."
Film Threat
Michael Ferraro
1.5/4
"The complete absence of a distinct visual style robs
Catwoman
of its imagination and wonder. It looks and feels utterly flat, which is the kiss of death in this genre"
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
D
""Catwoman" is kitty litter."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
D
"An avalanche of de-clawed idiocy."
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
2/5
"Halle Berry parece estar numa daquelas aulas de teatro em que o professor insiste para que os alunos finjam ser árvores, nuvens ou bicicletas ergométricas."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
"It is just, for the most part, another run-of-the-mill craptacular destined to be forgotten in a couple of weeks..."
Critic Doctor
Peter Sobczynski
2.5/5
"Gratuitous action, ill-defined characters, goofy plot. And moments when it's great fun."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
D-
"This is one of the strangest and most fearsome of big-budget summer movie blockbuster wannabes: a film without an audience. "
TheFilmJournal.com (Ohio)
Rick Curnutte
4/5
"Much better than it had to be and a lot better than many Internet critics, eager to hate it, wanted it to be."
eFilmCritic.com
Rob Gonsalves
D+
"Not beautifully bad so much as just plain terrible."
Flipside Movie Emporium
Rob Vaux
C-
"Cheesy special effects, under drawn characters, simplistic writing (by a committee of scribes) and music video direction will likely draw the attention-deficit crowd"
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
2/5
"Touches on feminist ideals that are all but contradicted by a pair of skimpy leather pants."
Movie Views
Ryan Cracknell
1/5
"
Catwoman
looks and feels like something culled together by a committee of greedy and inexperienced first-time producers. And horny 14-year-olds."
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
"Instead of basking in the considerable charms Berry has to offer, the director, Pitof ... treats them like accessories to the picture's flashy, senseless cutting and overused special effects."
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
" An almost unmitigated disaster, this major studio production with a major star in the lead (the Oscar-winning Halle Berry) comes across like a direct-to-video production, complete with ultra lame computer-generated effects and clueless direction ..."
ESplatter
Steve Biodrowski
0/4
"It's bad enough that not only are careers over, but somebody should be slapped."
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
1/4
"And what would the film be without its performances? Better."
