I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Let me start off by saying that I'm not a fan of felines. However, I'd heard so much about the musical that I finally decided to see the film.Visually, the movie is quite nice. The makeup, choreography, costuming, the cast and the set were all done very well. The singing was great and the movement of the actors, both as dancers and as "cats" was a sight to see. The special effects are also of note. All of that being said, I had a bit of a time deciphering what was being sung - I had to find the lyrics to follow along. And the cast did lip sync.The main problem is that there is really no plot. The viewer is introduced to different types of cats by their personality and, in some cases, where they generally could be found (the theater, a train, etc.) I find a movie without a plot quite tedious; I stuck around to the end only because of the visuals.Would I recommend it? Maybe if you have seen the play or if you already know the story has no plot. Maybe if you are a fan of felines in general or a fan of musicals. I can't say I would watch it again - It wasn't my cup of cream.

Sure, it's beautiful. Music, costumes, and make-up are incredible. But you might as well watch a painting for two hours because there is no story to hold onto. Apparently reading T.S. Eliot's book on which it's based will fill things out, but art needs to stand on its own, and this just falls down. It's hard to believe that Cats is the second longest- running Broadway musical of all time. (Phantom is still going.) Perhaps repeat audiences kept watching Cats, hoping they would eventually understand the point some day.Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat was better. Sure, it also had the silly genre collections such as country western and calypso, but they worked to tell a story and were funny. For example, in Cats, Rum Tum Tugger tries to employ an Elvis Presley style, but it's just kind of gross. Whereas the Pharaoh in Joseph is built up as "The King," an allusion to Presley that makes sense and delivers humor.I suspect there was a good story that could have been told, but it fell short because there was no real context presented.

I just discovered this video and I'm totally addicted. Some people complain on the lack of plot... well, what could they expect seeing it is based on a book of poems, and written for a child at that.Cats is utterly enjoyable for the beauty of the songs and choreography, for the costumes and colours, for its energy, fun and gaiety. But if you're seeking intellectual stimulation, this is obviously not the show to watch, which is just fine as it is nice to watch undemanding shows like this from time to time.The funny songs, Skimbleshanks, Mungojerry and Rumpleteazer are really great fun to watch and contrast with the sad nostalgic songs. John Mill's performance is very moving and as for Elaine Paige, she is just unforgettable. The DVD is worth buying if only to just watch and re watch her singing Memory. The only performance that did not enthuse me was that of Rum Tum Tugger and his slithering hip moves.All in all, a great show I'd have loved to have seen on stage! This is great family entertainment.

I know that most others will strongly disagree with my comments, and I have waited quite some time to to express them.Very poor camera work. (Always a problem with musicals on film.) I expected far more from this cast. Despite the most welcome presence of Elaine Paige and John Mills, there are some truly disappointing performances.The intentional omission of some pieces was a deplorable decision. (As was re-working the score.)Having seen other staging and casts I am shocked at this presentation by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
