Why so much hype?

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

So this was for real made in 2013? When I was in my early teens in the 90's I was able to produce more realistic visual effects with no skills whatsoever.I mean, really, in this day and age it takes literally zero skill to buy CrazyTalk or similar software to easily make your cat "talk" and not embarrass yourself and all the people involved in this... uh... movie...Why in the world do people with no movie knowledge and skills whatsoever chose to do movies? Find something you're GOOD at, and do that.And no, I don't recommend watching this because only just a few scenes are joyfully laughable, because they're utterly ridiculous, the rest is boring and makes no sense. Just watch the JonTron review of the movie for the highlights or something.The fact that "movies" like this actually exist is fascinating. It shows that we failed as a species.

Where oh where to begin? How about with the director's credits of TEN films a year for the past five years!!! Is it any surprise they're all horrible? Maybe he's just trying to outdo Godfrey Ho's record of five films a year. He should learn from Ho and use unreleased Hong Kong romantic comedy footage redubbed to pad out his films instead of just the opening credits.Just to clarify, this movie is NOT about a "talking" cat and is NOT about "a family" and the characters do NOT have "problems" (other than being boring) and the cat shown in IMDb's images is NOT the cat in the movie. So as usual IMDb can't get basic facts about the film right.So anyway, this film is about two neighboring families, a widower and his son, and a middle aged single mother. What's going on in their lives? NOTHING!!! There no conflict or narrative hook at all!!! The characters just sit around texting or playing video games. Even the characters are bored with their own movie.The only thing happening is a cat wanders in and out of their California homes. Wow, a cat, narrated by Eric Roberts. So an actor who's built his whole career playing stalkers, rapists, slimeballs, and other criminals is cast to voice a female cat in a children's film? By "narrated" I mean he's (or she's since the cat's female) "talking" to the audience NOT the people actually in the movie!!!The cat doesn't actually do ANYTHING!!! That's why cats make such poor subject matter for films. Think about how many films come to mind based around cats. Disney's 'That Darn Cat' and a Hammer Horror B&W film about a murder victim coming back as a cat to avenge his death. No, Stephen King's 'Cat's Eye' really isn't about a cat. It just had a cat in it!Let's face it, house cats don't do anything but lounge around. So why should we be surprised by the results of film based around a cat.I didn't even recognize the fat middle aged blonde as Kristine DeBell the cutie from 'Meatballs' and 'Battle Creek Brawl' who previously worked as a hardcore porn actress. And when I say "hardcore" I mean "HARDCORE" quadruple penetration! (not kidding)This movie is gouge your eyes out bad.

Human ignorance and sin are no match for the feline prophet, Duffy. As the one true God's semi-feral cat offspring, Duffy breaks the mold traveling freely dropping gems of wisdom on two families and teaching them to help themselves. As the clawed sage sorts out social drama and becomes emotionally invested in these individuals, he puts his life on the line in a dangerous traffic incident and faces a near death experience. Breaking from the traditional martyr archetype, Duffy pulls through with help from the two appreciative families in retrieving a magical artifact that spurs on his pseudo resurrection. Eric Roberts break-out role as Duffy will replace the Bible for millennia to come.

I recently watched this "film" for my podcast, where we solely review awful movies. I painstakingly sat through it twice with a stopwatch and timed all of the runtime of the movie spent on establishing shots (there are FIFTY-SEVEN OF THEM), credits, and shots of the cat lying or waddling around. This sums up the movie better than anything:Between the credits, establishing shots, and shots of the cat, those all take up THIRTY PERCENT OF THE 83-MINUTE RUNTIME. I have never seen a movie that so blatantly pads its runtime with scenery. And what's scarier than that is that there are literally dozens of instances (that I didn't time with the stopwatch) where the human characters are shown doing nothing but sitting and looking at things for several minutes at a time, or walking up stairs, or standing and looking at random objects. It is pathetic how poorly edited and shot this movie is.Literally nothing happens in this movie. If you don't believe me, go see it. You'll go cross-eyed before you ever find anything resembling a plot. If this thing was competently made just from a sheer editing standpoint, it would be 4 minutes long...if that.
