Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

If you have seen Paul Blart: Mall Cop, you have seen this film. If you haven't seen Paul Blart: Mall Cop, either watch that instead or avoid this film for all the same reasons you're avoiding Paul Blart: Mall Cop. This film is exactly what you'd get if The Asylum made a mockbuster of Paul Blart: Mall Cop called Paw Blard: Mall Cat, then someone else made an amateur review of it on YouTube by occasionally cutting away from the film to video of their cat with them making sarcastic comments about the film.

The film starts out a little slow for my liking, but it was really well involved by the 20 minute mark. Fascinating, punctual, and includes everyone's favorite cat. Need I say more? Take a look. As a side note: Grumpy cat is a female cat, making the protagonist a female. I'm sure most won't care about this little fact, but it is something to consider. Any bit of sexism removed in the world is a positive step to a better life for all.

It's only in the age of technology that society would praise a full-length movie based on an internet icon cat. People today are WAY too easily amused and really need to learn to pick up a book or go for a drive and experience the world in ways away from glowing screens.One thing that sets this movie apart from others in its genre though, is that the makers knew it was a terrible movie and it makes fun of itself. So if you're forced to watch it, at least you can get a kick out of it. It wasn't really the cat itself that made the movie so bad, it was more the actors chosen. They didn't really fit the characters they were playing, and they were all such generic cardboard cutouts that at first I thought it was intended. The soundtrack was terrible. The plot was just a rip-off of movies like Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009).It's an okay movie for really little kids though, they can laugh at the hideous cat and enjoy a Christmas adventure over the holidays. But if you're an adult, don't go into this expecting much. Just like that television program they made of that The Annoying Orange internet media sensation cr*p, this is just another sign that society as we know it is degrading to the point where even a movie about a cat that looks angry is considered funny and original.

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).
