Catwoman: Hunted Film Review

 


Batman fans we are just a few short months away before we see the release of the newest live action Batman film and well one of that films many cast of characters has just gotten her very first solo animated film. I will admit that i've straight up forgotten that this film was coming but my oh my am I so glad that i've seen this film and so join me as I review the film that is actually the very first solo Catwoman animated film with the film in question being  freaking called simply just "Catwoman: Hunted" enjoy.

The plot of this film is Catwoman is forced is to team up with Batwoman in order to take down the leader of an evil organisation called simply just Lethiathan. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was all in honesty the weakest aspect of this film simply because this films main plot line was very freaking weak indeed at best in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.



Starring in this film is Elizabeth Gillies as Selina Kyle / Catwoman and Stephanie Beatriz as Kate Kane / Batwoman. Also starring in this film is Jonathan Banks as Roman Sionis / Black Mask , Steve Blum as Solomon Grundy , Lauren Cohan as Julia Pennyworth , Keith David as Tobias Whale , Zehra Fazal as Talia al Ghul and Nosferata , Jonathan Frakes as King Faraday and Boss Moxie , Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Barbara Minerva / Cheetah and Kelly Hu as Jade Nguyen/Cheshire.

Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty alot better then what I personally thought that it would be. Simply because when you see whom is starring in this film you don't usually think of good performances and so then the very fact that this cast turned in some really freaking performances in this film is in all honesty a really freaking good thing in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



Doing the actual animation for this film is the little known animation studio that is called simply OLM Team Inque. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this film was all honesty really freaking good which considering that i've never even heard of this animation is a very freaking good thing indeed in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Now then believe it or not we are actually getting to filmed appearences by Catwoman this year in vastly different mediums. Which is something that I in all honesty think is really freaking cool since there's alot that you could do with the Catwoman character outside of her just being the love interest to Bruce Wayne / Batman all of which do make her a pretty freaking cool as all heck character to watch on either the big screen or the freaking small screen in my freaking opinions anyways  at least.

So now then for some strange the makers of this film chose to add in alot of comedy into this film which works well enough with a straight man type of character like Batwoman but it doesn't work when you have Catwoman literally quoting the Looney Tunes. Not every single movie needs to have jokes you could have played this movie straight with jokes and it would worked just fine but by adding this amount jokes into this film it makes this film feel alot more like a film that's set within the confides of the Marvel Cinematic Universe which is a shame because alot of this films freaking were really freaking funny as all freaking heck in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Now then the other thing that I really didn't like about this film was the fact that just the opening action sequence took twenty minuets of this films running time. Which isn't a good thing because of the fact that this film doesn't that very long of a running time and so it has to start of with the plot pretty much right away and not spend twenty minuets on an absolutely pointless action sequence in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this film has / had a grand total running time of exactly one hour and eighteen minuets and fifty three seconds. Which is a such a short running time for this kind of storyline to play out in a more organic way and it really doesn't help that like i've just the films opening action sequence takes up up to at the very leas twenty minuets of this films running time which means that the film has to go into overdrive to hit all of it's major plot points before the film finishes which isn't a good thing at all in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then since this film is an action film after all that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / resented to us in this very film and well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. Which was something that I really was expecting to be the case simply because there's alot of what you can do with Catwoman's whip which does indeed get used to great effect in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall while this film is indeed a rather fun freaking film to freaking watch it's also a really freaking flawed film as well and it's those exact same flaws that keep this film from being a perfect freaking film to watch for me personally in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that means that this very freaking film erns itself a freaking grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Batman fandom wiki page and Google Image. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.
