One of many worst issues filmmakers can do when making a superhero film is to fully disregard the comics. That is what occurred with Halle Berry’s “Catwoman” (2004), which bears no resemblance to the comics exterior of the movie’s title. As an alternative of Selina Kyle, Catwoman is Persistence Phillips, and he or she has no connection to Batman or her comedian ebook counterpart.
Whereas some might be able to overlook that, comedian ebook followers did not, and, greater than that, it is only a dangerous film on each stage. The script is horrible, the CGI is dreadful, and the costume Berry wears as Catwoman would not make any sense. “Catwoman” price $100 million to supply and solely made $82 million on the field workplace.
The challenge being caught in growth hell for a very long time did not assist issues, costing the movie any continuity with the established “Batman” movies. The film was so dangerous that it gained 4 Razzies, together with one for Berry, who accepted the “award” in particular person whereas holding her finest actress Academy Award. Like Ryan Reynolds with “Inexperienced Lantern,” at the least she had a humorousness about her DC bomb.
