Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A VIEWER FROM PLAINFIELD,CT
Review: If you really like this movie, go with the original from 1965. Hayley Mills and Dean Jones are a better and enjoyable combo to watch instead of Christina Ricci and Doug E.Doug. If it wasn't for that cute gray tabby cat, I would have totally passed on this one. The acting and writing were lame.....At least the film ends within an hour and a half, so you won't make it a habit to look at your watch or wall clock while watching!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: funny movie
Review: me and my mom saw this movie at the movie theater i have to say i laughted though the intire film it is just that funny.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Cute, enjoyable fun!
Review: No, it's not worthy of an Oscar, but it was good for a little over an hour's worth of entertainment, especially if you're a cat lover.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not bad for a kids movie
Review: Ricci [Christina]is the main highlight of this wierd but funny movie.

The story is about a teenage girl with a pet cat.

One night the cat brings home a message on a watch. The message looks like "hell" but turns out to be "help". The message is from a kidnpped servant of a rich lady.

I won't tell you the whole story but i will say that it was pretty good. However, I think the age group it would fit woul be about 5-11 years.

Summary: Underrated and great
Review: The only movie I think that could be more underrated than this would be "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace". How could this not be easily liked? I mean, some reviewers critized Ricci's attitude. But this it what teens are like! The cat wasn't boring. The cat was great!(though I guess it was a bit an annoyance at times). I mean it has a great mystery. Is the lady really here? Where does DC go in the night? And why is meat being dropped off at the police station? That was a big thing that was largely solved. I wouldn't want to spoil that though. And the characters... they had such personalites. Like those two gas station guys that were rivaling and battling. And Ricci, the alienated teen who doesn't like living there. Can you blame her? That's what teens are like and thats what makes it...athentic. Doug is funny, too as he tries to think like DC. The mom who refuses to swear. And much more! Lots of action and a nice sense of humor. Watch it!

Summary: flaw entertainment
Review: There are only a few movies where the remake is as good as or better than the original. This one is the worst I ever have seen. I have bought this on DVD in a PAL country expecting a reissue of a former released NTSC Laserdisc containing the original movie of 1965. What I have got was a production (1997) with shallow entertainment not even amusing or funny, created loveless.
Although the original movie exists in a restored version I don't understand why it is not yet released on DVD in place of that nonsense of 1997. Therefore I share the same opinion with the reviewer who said: "buy That Darn Cat (VHS) in place of That Darn Cat (DVD)"!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awful!
Review: This is one remake that shouldn't have been made! The only thing it has in common with the original is that a cat came home wearing a wristwatch on his neck, everything else is a totally new story that doesn't make any sense. It appears that the current producers disliked the original plot so they added a bunch of silly subplots just to fill space. The lady butcher in love with a security guard leaving packages of meat on his doorstep, the "bloody twig" clue which turned out to be a maraschino cherry stem, the person who hasn't left their apartment for years, etc. were all distracting elements that nobody would have missed had they been left out.

My sons hadn't seen the original yet, and they thought this movie was stupid. They did enjoy the original when I rented it the following week.
