Last night I was able to catch “Catwoman” with a friend/client of mine Elle. I thought it was nice to treat her out since she has been very helpful in giving me projects to fill in my portfolio. And most importantly, getting my paychecks. Hehehe.

First off, this Catwoman is not Selina Kyle of the Batman Universe. So don’t expect to see appearances from Bruce Wayne here. And I don’t know the setting, I think it’s not Gotham City either. So you are introduced to a new character here, Patience Philips, a sensetive artist who works at a Bad Ad Agency.

Well to sum it up. She stumbles to a secret of how a line of beauty product from the company she worked on is causing more ugly side effects to it’s users. She got flushed out and died, while a rare egyptian cat breaths life back into her. Having an epiphany from a catnip. She sought to find out who really killed her and in between have romance with a police officer. She was manipulated by the real killer. But eventually she found the truth.

It was really simple if you look at it. I like some parts of it, like her transformation to being Catwoman and the characterization momments. But there is something in the story that doesn’t have the “Punch” spiderman had as a superhero movie. I kinda like her as being an artist (because I can relate to her. Hehehe) but she’s not as smart as Selina Kyle, as she was easily manipulated.

Now the costume, I can’t deny that Halle Berry is such a babe and has all the right curves, but there is something not right with the costume here. she looked more of a dominatrix ready to give any bad boy a spanking. Kinda liked it if she was more of a Cat-burglar than what she is now.

All in all, Catwoman isn’t really that spectacular and doesn’t raise the bar in superhero movies. But it’s not at all bad either as there are some parts that you may like, and there is still a lot more potential to explore here. So you can either watch it right now or just wait for the Video come out, it would be just fine.
