In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Rio Hayward
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Sabah Hensley
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Here's a film that to my knowledge never made a blip on the radar. This is the type of movie a lot of folks are looking for. Here we have THE sexiest woman around, Rebecca Pidgeon doing what she does best, acting. She lights up every scene. The dry heat setting and razor sharp dialog lured me in from the beginning. This is that curious style of thriller-mystery that really hits the mark. If you like a basically 5 or 6 character film that runs the gamut of emotions, this is right up your alley. Top notch acting by all. Brian Denehey looks like hes doing just about his last role, but lets hope not. The ending is a little messy but don't forget to check the DVD extras to see the original ending. You have to get lucky to stumble upon an engrossing quirky little movie like this. Should be a blu-ray candidate.

I saw Cat City at a film festival. I love noir thrillers but Cat City fell quite a bit short. The plot is predictable. The dialog isn't sharp at all. And the acting in a couple of the major roles is wooden. Dennehy is fine as a retired police officer now doing PI work but he doesn't get a lot of screen time. Julian Sands was also good as a real estate guy up to no good. The two major roles that were poorly acted were Rebecca Pidgeon as Sands wife -- she's very wooden -- and William Shockey as a dot com millionaire. Shockey got screenplay credit too.It's the kind of movie you'd kick yourself over paying to see at a cinema because it's simply not that good. Tellingly, it appears to be going straight to cable. If you catch it on cable you might pass a pleasant enough hour or two, but it won't stand up well against any good film noir movie.

A throw back film noir thriller with great performances and a lot of style. Rebecca Pidgeon as the femme fatale and Brian Dennehy playing the gum shoe detective. If you like Ms. Pidgeon you won't be disappointed. She's fabulous in the role and has never looked better. Dennehy is solid as ever. All the actors deliver with some fabulous dialogue.Dennehy, "What ever happened to pencils and paper?" Pidgeon, "They went the way of morals and values." Priceless. Director Huff does a great job unfolding this highly entertaining who-dun-it. You'll love the plot twist in the end. The beautiful Palm Springs locations only add to the cinematic experience. I highly recommend Cat City.

This movie is well written, directed and acted and if you like lots of suspense, intrigue and twists and turns in the plot then Cat City is for you. From the jolting opening scene all of the way to the end you'll be riveted to the screen waiting to see which direction this film will take you next. In a world where millions of dollars are on the line, you learn you can trust no one and to expect the unexpected. Not only is the storyline and cast terrific, but the film work, i.e. scenery, etc. is outstanding as well. I would highly recommend viewing this movie. It looks like Brent Huff (writer and director) has himself yet another winner with Cat City.
