Looking at reviews and opinion pieces, I assumed this was just a terrible
film. The worst film of 2019 some might say. I've never seen the musical
in full, but I did know some songs. Still, my assumption would be that the
film is actually a solid piece of work. If you want to see top actors sing
and dance in digital cat costumes, this is your film. However, the plot is
rather thin and so are most of the songs. This does not seem to be a
musical that needed a film, nor does the film improve on the musical. It's
not even bad really, it's just very mediocre, and that might be because of
the source material.
