Vincent Bal's film should appeal to kids, cat lovers and felines. I give it two stars, and my cat, Audrey, gives it three meows.

Yes, the film is silly and light as a feather, but who doesn't love gossiping cats?

"Miss Minoes" is a film I suspect would be adored by young girls who love cats. I am not that young woman.

As long as you can suspend your disbelief about a cat being turned into an impeccably adorable woman through a toxic waste spill, who then teams up with a down-on-his luck reporter to solve the crime (and shenanigans and romance ensue), this charming movie is fun for the whole family! I don't generally like kids' movies, but this one is cute and fun. Lead actress Carice van Houten is enchantingly darling.

Miss Minoes is a charming and albeit absurd tale of a cat who becomes a woman. Its hysterical at times, but thats about all it has going for it.

I'm an old lady and don't like violence, gore, and the typical American movies so I found this charming and entertaining all the way through.
