求猫女的英文台词与英文观后感
瑙傚悗鎰烖br/>Catwoman is not the all out disaster we were expecting,but it鈥檚 not a particularly good movie either.I actually started to enjoy the film,right up until Halle Berry鈥檚 mousey Patience Phillips turns into the titular hero.Her meek,artist character comes close to working on realistic level,while the film鈥檚 production design and soundtrack choices through these opening sequences are solid,if not exactly spectacular.But once Patience picks up her whip,the script unravels into a weird mess of kitschy clich茅鈥檚 and unforgivably bad dialogue.Is Catwomantrying to be campy or are we supposed to take all of this seriously?I still don鈥檛 know and what鈥檚 scary is that I don鈥檛 think the movie鈥檚 one-named director Pitof knows either.
Patience is a graphic designer murdered by a corrupt cosmetics company when she stumbles onto the terrible secret of their newest product.They鈥檙e shipping out a face cream that turns people into monsters and what鈥檚 strange is that they don鈥檛 seem to be afraid of retribution when the government eventually finds out.Rather,they only want to keep it quiet enough to turn a profit,somehow assuming that once people use it,no one will care that it disfigures.More unbelievable still is Patience鈥檚 resurrection at the paws of an Egyptian house cat named Midnight,who solely for the purposes of Patience鈥檚 revival is rendered in bad cgi and made to look like a gray,thinner version of the cat we saw eating lasagna in this summer鈥檚 Garfield.
When Patience awakens she鈥檚 given all sorts of strange cat abilities,including a typically feline attraction to catnip (only Halle Berry could manage to make rubbing catnip all over her face look vaguely sexy).Soon Patience is sleeping on shelves and strutting around town with unseemly confidence.Miss Phillips never really seems to be bothered or perplexed by any of this and instead inexplicably compartmentalizes it and just goes on with her life.Somewhere in the second act,shortly after she beats up some noisy heavy metal bikers,Patience decides it might be nice to go after her killers and does so with such determined vengeance that you鈥檇 think she would have thought of it earlier.
To find out who committed her murder,she must of course wear leather since that fabric is required in any tale of revenge.Spider-Man you鈥檒l note is driven by guilt,and thus wears only spandex.Once she cuts up some pants to make an appropriately cat-like costume she becomes Catwoman,a heroine who steals a few diamonds and foils a robbery just to prove it.Most importantly,she looks good doing it.But then this IS Halle Berry in that slinky costume,so looking hot is practically a given.When she doesn鈥檛 look good it鈥檚 because she鈥檚 being rendered in CGI,as she always is whenever Catwoman does anything more complicated than walking.You鈥檇 think Halle could manage to duck under a swing,but Pitof or perhaps CGI Halle鈥檚 manager decided that it was CGI Halle who was right for almost every non-speaking job.When she鈥檚 not generated by computers,Catwoman is played by a small Italian stunt man,a detail I mention just in case any of you have thoughts of getting high on Catwoman as good female empowerment.Not much kumbayah girl-power in that.
Somewhat as an aside,Catwoman has a nearly romantic relationship with a detective gifted with the too cinematic name of Tom Lone (Benjamin Bratt).For the purposes of this movie,Lone has been substituted in for Batman and whenever the two are playing cops and robbers games together,the film approaches something that might be called good.But then they stop for a game of basketball and soon it鈥檚 back to the plot,which has Catwoman battling a villain played by Sharon Stone.She鈥檚 got super-powers,the worst super-powers to appear on screen since Daredevil鈥檚 Kingpin (whose primary power is being fat).Sharon in fact is a total waste of time and gives one of the worst performances she鈥檚 ever given.That鈥檚 saying a lot for a woman whose career sports gems like Sliver and is primarily known for baring her bosoms.Had Halle not won an Oscar,that鈥檚 probably something they鈥檇 both have in common.
However,most of the movie鈥檚 problems are caused by a script so bad that it must have been intentionally written to stink.I mean come on,the plot revolves around naughty beauty products鈥 give me a break.The rest are caused by laziness on the part of Pitof,who can鈥檛 even bother to have Patience鈥檚 office co-workers wear different outfits from one day to the next.Weirdly enough,he has no problem changing the wardrobe of Patience鈥檚 best friend while she crosses the street.Black undershirts don鈥檛 normally appear to cover a woman鈥檚 bosoms just because the traffic light turns red.
What鈥檚 sad is that Halle honestly tries to give a pretty solid performance.That鈥檚 something she鈥檇 never be able to achieve,not when forced to utter laughable lines like,鈥淚t鈥檚 over time!鈥 But let鈥檚 give her credit for the effort.The movie ought to be a huge humiliation for her and having now seen it,I鈥檓 frankly shocked that she didn鈥檛 find a way to refuse to promote it.There鈥檚 nothing the least bit resonant,interesting,or even exciting in Catwoman and the best way to enjoy it is to watch only to pick out all of Pitof鈥檚 stupid mistakes.There鈥檚 not a single good action sequence in the film,most of them being simply awkward and slightly embarrassing.
So yes,this isn鈥檛 as bad as some of us thought since it isn鈥檛 the worst movie ever made.Maybe it isn鈥檛 even the worst movie made this year,but then this is the year which brought us Torque.It is however a total failure,from story to execution a colossal blunder that you鈥檇 think someone would have had the sense to sweep right under the rug rather than to hyper-promote it as Warner Bros.has done.Catwoman is not necessarily the year鈥檚 worst movie,but it is 2004鈥檚 most pathetic.

The day I died was the day I started to live.In my old life,I longed for someone to see what was special in me.You did,and for that,you'll always be in my heart.But what I really needed was for me to see it.And now I do.You're a good man,Tom.But you live in a world that has no place for someone like me.You see,sometimes I'm good.Oh,I'm very good.But sometimes I'm bad.But only as bad as I wanna be.Freedom is power.To live a life untamed and unafraid is the gift that I've been given,and so my journey begins.
Catwoman:You like bad girls?
Tom Lone:Only if they like me back.
Ophelia:You died,but you were reborn.Midnight knew your fate,that's why she tested you,to see if you were worthy of a gift she could give you,a gift that could change your life,and give you a new one.You are not alone child,she saved others before you,look.
Amateurs!You boys thought you could come in here and steal all these beautiful things?What a purrrfect idea!
If you have no identity,why keep it a secret?
Catwoman:Because you killed me.
Meow.
