Review of Top Cat: The Movie (2011) by Myron P — 17 Jan 2013

While the movie has its moments, it's by no means the cat's pajamas.

Top Cat: The Movie appears to be aimed at people who know each episode of the original series by heart, seeing as the movie makes several callbacks to characters and moments from the old episodes. While the familiarity does bring up a sense of nostalgia, the movie relies on these far too often, and seeing as no introduction or buildup to these characters is given within the movie itself, this makes certain plot points appear to come out of nowhere to people who aren't as familiar with the classic cartoon episodes. Still, even to the people that do recognize everything the movie throws at them, it remains fairly bland altogether.
