EnemyPavement This movie is entertaining.A great selection for child audiences with stellar animation and coloring. The film has a creative story, told with likable characters. The animals have unique and interesting designs and are portrayed by a great voice cast. The animation also have a charming stylized look that would never be seen from studios such as Disney.Unfortunately, this film has it's faults.The pacing is just way too fast. This was definitely on purpose (going for a 'His Girl Friday' vibe appropriate for the time period), however, at times it makes the dialogue hard to follow. Everything is happening at once. The movie is just too chaotic. This pace that they move in shortens the picture to about an hour and a half, including opening and closing credits.The film definitely could have been longer if they took their time to tell the story. They also could have added more exposition to the movie, giving the characters more depth, which they greatly deserved.

Irishchatter It's odd that I never got to see this from childhood because it was just so sweet watching it for the first time recently. You have to love the main character Danny though, hes like the best cat friend you'll never get for real! However, we have to unfortunately put up with the self selfish cats in the real world. The 90s children's songs and the theme of the movie about old Hollywood would definitely give you nostalgia. It's too bad we have to deal with CGI films now and not 2-D they had in the 1990s. Natalie Cole (RIP) did a brilliant job at being featured in the movie as Sawyers singing voice. Honestly I can't believe they didn't give the woman credit even if she is Nat King Coles daughter. I thought she deserved better!Good film to watch for all ages!

FairlyAnonymous Cats Don't Dance is probably best remembered for being a box office bomb. However, I never see people bring up the movie as a movie? Was it a good movie? A bad movie? A mediocre movie? Well... it's actually good.However, I would not judge anyone who didn't see it because the advertising for it was awful. Watch the one and only trailer for it. It is bad. Look at the poster for it. It looks bad and uninteresting. Even the title sounds mediocre. This means that all forms of advertising for this movie were bad.I will start with the bad in this movie so that I can end on a high note:The Main Character: Danny is the main character and most problems people have with this movie is Danny. Most people see him as a one dimensional wooden character, and to a certain extent he is. He seems upbeat almost 24/7 and when he is down, he isn't down for awhile. The other issue he has is that he is incredibly naive. Now, I don't have an issue with this. Why? Because these are characteristics of real people I know. Danny is incredibly naive and upbeat, but that doesn't make him one- dimensional. It just means he doesn't have a super complex emotional journey. Imagine Tack from the unreleased "Thief and the Cobbler". Tack isn't a super complex character, yet you can tell that he is thinking and what his character is by his facial expressions. The same is with Danny. He may not say a lot, but you can tell he is definitely thinking.The Plot: The biggest issue I had with this movie was that the plot didn't seem to travel or go any real distance of time. It seemed over too quickly. The ending was actually the most generic aspect of this movie. The ending song wasn't very spectacular and it held the movie back a little bit. The romance was also a little forced.Those are the only issue I could find with the movie.The positives:The Cast: This movie has a really nice set of characters. All of them are entertaining, funny, unique...ish, and creative. I couldn't think of a character that actually annoyed me. The villain was easily one of the funniest aspects of the movie. The way Darla could express so much while saying very little.The Animation: For a movie running on a minimal budget, the animation is very nice. It is smooth, has a nice art style, and helps express the characters. Everything is very fluid in this movie, and it helps with the characters a lot. The First Half: The first half of the movie builds up the world and the characters very nicely. I initially thought this movie was going to be a lot better by its first half. Everything is quick, but the world is built up quite well.Summary: Cats Don't Dance is very well animated movie that is both incredibly funny and entertaining. Its biggest drawback is that it has some forced clichés thrown in here and there that don't seem as creative as the rest of the movie. All of the characters were likable. I was surprised that such a good movie could not be remembered by the general public.Also, did anyone feel like this movie could've been speaking about racism... ever so slightly.

kill-the-boxtrolls Anyone remember 'Singin' in the Rain'? Well, this is quite the little knockoff.. a great one. Musical actors take part in an animated feature almost as great as the old movie. But with a spoiled child actress and cats.Danny is a naive but friendly cat who is picked to star in Darla Dimples' "Lil' Ark Angel", quite similar to the Shirley Temple movies and star. This cat becomes baffled by his line of "Meow" while a child (who's name is Darla) comes in and wreaks havoc. Her main plot is the cause trouble and lies about liking animals.The script is superb, much like something Pixar would make. The animation is good. The acting was magnificent. Ashley Pendon's voice was great and I loved her singing voice... Lindsey did great. And the characters' voices to the animals sounded and reminded me much like the ones in 'All Dogs Go To Heaven'. Not to mention, the music was great and my favorite has to be the final song.This movie will bring an instant smile to faces of children and adults alike. It will reminisce childhood memories and will never be forgotten. Always remember that 'Cats Don't Dance' is a heartwarming and lighthearted movie that will be in your heart... young or old.
