For Friday night this will do just fine. It's definitely a good matchup -- Stone's cynical bravado versus Berry's resilient spunkiness in a world-class cat fight.Read the full review

Los Angeles Times | Kevin ThomasAdd Critic to Favorites

Not everybody will be able to swallow its heady romanticism, yet its French director, Pitof, has brought sophistication to a comic book sensibility, which helps some purple patches of dialogue along with other absurdities. Read the full review

Entertainment Weekly | Owen GleibermanAdd Critic to Favorites

I wouldn't call Catwoman incompetent, yet it has no visual grandeur, and very little surprise; you can tick off the story beats as if they'd been graphed.Read the full review

Washington Post | Ann HornadayAdd Critic to Favorites

Dragged down by a paper-thin story, the predictable number of fight scenes executed at equally predictable intervals and stock, unmemorable characters.Read the full review

The New York Times | Dana StevensAdd Critic to Favorites

A howlingly silly, moderately diverting exercise in high, pointless style. Read the full review
