Dale R Starring Hayley Mills again as the female lead. This is her last film, and Dean Jones’ first for Disney. The plot focuses on a cat that the FBI uses to solve a kidnapping and burglary. It started a little slow, but picked up in the second act and ended up being an entertaining movie. If you like drama/comedy or cats, I would suggest this movie. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Margaret G This rating is from the 10 year old me who saw the movie in 1965. Remember more extended scenes from that movie than most. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review Audience Member That Darn Cat is a film I likely wouldn't have heard of if it weren't for internet reviewers Nostalgia Critic and Cinema Snob, who covered both the 1965 original and the 1997 remake, a film that, having heard what they said about it, I have no interest in seeing. The original, on the other hand, is a fun little romp that never takes itself too seriously. It's got a pretty intense plotline line featuring a kidnapped woman whose life always hangs in the balance, considering how trigger-happy her kidnappers are. But this never gets too dark, and is always counterbalanced by the light-hearted, zany antics that make up the central story. The cat that plays DC has such presence and leaves a definite impact because they always look invested in what they're doing. I didn't know it was possible to train a cat so well. The story is unabashedly silly, but that's what make it fun. Some of the conversations go on longer than they need to, and the film could do with having about 10 minutes cut out of it. But if you plan on watching it I reckon you'll know what you're getting yourself in to. It's just a shame that Disney can't make live action films as enjoyable as this anymore. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review christopher c. m Other than some really annoying characters, mainly in the form of a nosey "Gladys Cravitz" neighbor, it's pretty good. It is mostly movie and the villains are scary. It's a Disney classic for a reason.
