Continuity mistake: During James and Bob's first meeting, in one early shot the box of cereals is on the counter next to the cat, while in the rest of the scene it's not there, nor it is supposed to since James gave his furry friend a lift but never picked the box up from the floor. (00:16:00)

D'awww. A cute cat! That's what the internet is for, right? And obviously it works also for busking. This movie is just like a cat: cute, cuddly, and makes you feel good even if it does not give a damn and is there solely for the meal!
The main character, the two-legged one at least, gives a pretty good performance in a role thoroughly sanitized (he's one of those heroin addicts any girl would happily bang after maybe a shampoo), and the cat is pretty boss. All the other characters are pretty one-note and cartoonishly mean - but those with more than 30 seconds of screentime will get a chance to redeem themselves anyway - minus the unattractive junkie, screw that guy!
No need to be mean with a movie like this, since I had a good time watching it and it managed to strike the right emotional chords. Just know that you are in for an hour and a half of shameless cat-style manipulation and you'll love it.
