Critics Consensus

Halle Berry is the lone bright spot, but even she can't save this laughable action thriller.

David Stratton

At the Movies (Australia)

Bereft of excitement and with action scenes similar to those we've seen a dozen times before, this is a very poor effort indeed.

Rated: 1/5

Chicago Reader

The screenplay's a hodgepodge of witchcraft, ancient Egyptian lore, pulp feminism, and a dash of S&M.

Wall Street Journal

Catwoman's director, a visual-effects specialist named Pitof, is not contained by the rules of filmmaking. Scenes that make sense? Nonsense. Characters with inner lives? Utterly passe.

I love(d) basketball more than anything in the world until I watched the basketball scene in Catwoman. Now I hate basketball.

If there was ever a movie capable of stopping years of progress in its tracks, this would be the one.

Typical of that era of movies, but not executed particularly well. Sort of fun? Better cgi than what we get these days ironically.

While I would argue its reputation is a bit worse than what it deserves, it doesn't have any redeeming qualities either. It's shot in a style-over-substance manner, the writing is messy, the soundtrack is very intrusive, and perhaps surprisingly, it contains what may very well be the worst basketball scene ever. Other than that, it's mostly watchable, and the fact that the first part feels like a rom-com is a welcome tonal choice that actually informs the rest of the film too, if only partially.

Saw this in the cinema 21 years ago and oh my god it is even worse today. How is this becoming a cult classic? Unfortunately the brilliant Halle Berry is absolutely terrible in this - so is the rest of the cast… just cringe the entire movie. What a total embarrassment for everyone involved 🙈😳
