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.
