Cats, the feline fantasy based on the 1981 Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, was never going to please everyone. It touts an impressive cast of singers and actors, including Idris Elba, Judi Dench, Jennifer Hudson, Ian McKellen and Taylor Swift.

At the New York Times, Manohla Dargis wondered if the movie wasn't bad enough to reach "so bad it's good" territory.
