That was an excellent one.
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
This is a low budget Lifetime film based on the internet meme of the Grumpy cat stretched out to full length film with product placements and the like, some wisecracks and a plot that rips off Paul Blart:Mall Cop.An introverted 12 year old girl, Chrystal can understand the sarcastic thoughts of Grumpy Cat, a cat in a pet store in a mall that is constantly returned by its new owners because of her sour looks.Grumpy and Chrystal thwart the kidnapping of a valuable dog from bumbling thieves but there is a mastermind who is now after them.There are a few Home Alone type shenanigans, some off beat humour which the kids will enjoy but you get the feeling it is a mediocre movie to promote Grumpy Cat merchandise who I felt was awfully voiced.
Sharp-eared viewers who catch Aubrey Plaza (as Grumpy Cat) introduce Meghan Charpentier's white-trash-named and spelled "Chrystal" as "part of the last generation on a dying planet" understand they are in for a seditious battering of all things bright and beautiful. Grumpy Cat's venom spews equally over Chrystal, Christmas, modern American mall culture, parenting, and all the tenants of Lifetime movies. How this thing finagled a "G" rating is a thing of mystery if no other reason than a fantasy sequence when Grumpy is tied down and gassed to death. The movie doesn't break as much as just ignores the fourth wall with Grumpy returning from commercial breaks expressing disbelief that the audience is still watching and wonder why you don't do something more productive with your limited lifespan. When the plot slows, bubbles with Grumpy in them appear to lampoon the current action or to just talk about something more interesting. Evan Todd and Isaac Haig as the baddies (although everyone comes across as fairly useless) trade quips worth of a Tarantino film with out the sickening pretense. Daniel Roebuck as super creepy mall guard "George" brings a discomforting weirdness particularly when he hits on young, female mall workers. If it all sounds like the satire of the standard Lifetime Christmas movie went a little overboard then you got that right. In short, if you like your chocolate Santa's and your comedies dark, this is a must see (keep the kids away from it).
My daughter loved it. She wants to watch it again on Christmas Eve. It's a very kid friendly movie with a sarcastic talking cat who helps a young girl foil a robbery and find a friend at the same time.Lots of visual jokes, lots of subtle sarcastic comments that a little kid might be making to themselves about their classmates. It will be very easy for your child to make a connection to the brainy but unpopular cat.Highly recommended if you have young children.. and love talking animal movies.Similar to the Cat from Outer Space
"Grumpy Cat" became a social media star well before this "Lifetime" movie aired. The cat has coloring and features which give it a perpetually grumpy look. Like celebrities who presently become famous for looking sexy (and bad behavior), Grumpy became famous for looking grumpy. Grumpy is more popular than "Toonces" (the cat who could drive a car), but probably won't overtake "Felix". By the time "Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever" premiered, the frequently photographed cat had already run her course. Facebook hardly noticed the movie. Twitter flickered. Herein, we find Grumpy lives in a mall pet store. Great setting. The cat is much cuter in live action. She's one smart kitty, but never picked for adoption due to her grumpiness...You would pick golden blonde-haired Megan Charpentier (as Crystal) as easily the cutest and most popular 12-year-old in her class. As a bonus, she's smart and friendly. Yet, inexplicably, Miss Charpentier doesn't have any friends. Thanks to Russell Peters and the spirit of Christmas, she wishes for a friend and is given the ability to understand Grumpy's language. They become comrades and help solve a dog-napping mall crime. The wise-cracking cat isn't very helpful, leaving Charpentier to do most of the heavy lifting. "SpongeBob" writer Tim Hill works well with the cast, allowing Isaac Haig and Evan Todd to get the most out of their characters. The feline star is voiced by Aubrey Plaza, who has a playfulness that's memorable while the movie isn't.Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever (11/29/14) Tim Hill ~ Megan Charpentier, Aubrey Plaza, Isaac Haig, Evan Todd
