Cat Person Ratings & Reviews
The Jewish Chronicle
Linda Marric
Not a perfect adaptation, but it still works.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Christy Lemire
A fascinating disaster.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
With all the quirky needle drops substituting for real mood, and the flippant dialogue spelling everything out for us, this "Cat Person" proves as susceptible to misreading the vibe as its crossed-wire characters
New York Magazine/Vulture
Jen Chaney
The movie, naturally, wants to tell us more than a roughly 7,000-word work of short fiction can. But this examination of the personalities and emotions we project onto others forgets to leave some space unfilled.

Sheila O'Malley
The film swerves into the totally unbelievable, pulling from a grab-bag of horror/erotic thriller tropes, all of which beggar belief.
New York Times
Claire Shaffer
It's true that dating in a misogynistic world is a scary prospect, and Fogel and Ashford certainly recognize all the subtle ways that fear can creep in through uncertainty. If only they trusted their audience to do the same.

Brian Tallerico
Jones and Braun kept me in the film to the end so that I was never bored, even if I kept thinking about how the movie around them doesn't quite live up to what they're delivering.
Polygon
Katie Rife
Cat Person gets it wrong so consistently, makes its points so inelegantly, and pads out the short story in such an ill-conceived way that it ends up invalidating the same concerns on which it's built.
Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack)
Ty Burr
"Cat Person" is a textbook reminder that literature "tells" and movies "show" and that translating one format to the other is too often a proposition for the foolish or the foolhardy.
Slant Magazine
Chris Barsanti
Starting out as a dark and somewhat unknowable comedy of manners about male toxicity, Cat Person turns into a domestic thriller so absurd that it feels like another of Margot's daydreams.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Playing as a romantic dramedy that frequently spills over into psychological horror, the warring ideas and genres result in a disjointed, bizarre, and often cringe-inducing exploration of the modern dating world.
TIME Magazine
Stephanie Zacharek
Takes everything that was admirable, or even just compelling, about Roupenian's story and spins it into a scrambled, overloaded mess.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Todd McCarthy
A disarmingly creepy film with a disturbing edge that will surely trigger further discussion about contemporary dating and romantic protocols.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
Toxic masculinity may be the beast within modern men, yet the attempt to give that a form in cinematic terms falls painfully flat.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
The acclaimed short story becomes a disjointed romantic thriller that seems to miss the entire point of its source material.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
Coarsens, flattens and torturously over-elaborates a story whose elegant concision was precisely what made it such rich and elastic interpretive fodder.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
A cinematic litter box.
TheWrap
Katie Walsh
A bold, stylish and dynamic adaptation that makes big choices. The moral of the story is left up to us, which is perhaps the most daring move of all.
The Playlist
Tomris Laffly
A fiendishly playful relationship-gone-bad quasi-thriller with a sense of humor about its own unknowability.
The Hollywood Reporter
Lovia Gyarkye
Will undoubtedly find a captive, devoted audience.
