If you are a professional shit shoveling officer, then maybe you can't refuse this movie, because "Nine Lives", with the fantastic experience of a workaholic CEO trapped in a cat, has indeed created a lot of irony Regarding the cuteness of cats, as a movie, the mediocre plot seems to be difficult to achieve.
With the fact that it is possible to use fake and real movie special effects today, it is not so difficult to anthropomorphize a cat into a cute spot, and the movie "Nine Lives" is so cute and touching. The workaholic's CEO father was accidentally The soul and the cat are integrated into one, and the excellent capture of facial expressions creates a real "cat star", which unfolds such as drinking and hangover, wanting to leave a distress message with a pen, daily life with his wife and daughter, etc. , If you look at this work from the perspective of cuteness, then at least it can be regarded as unsatisfactory.
It is obviously not enough for a movie to rely on cats to sell cuteness, so we can also see that the director put the return of home in this movie to create warmth, busy with work, neglecting family children and the company of the soul trapped behind the cat with family members, It builds its emotional context, but it is the warmth of this family that has not only failed to become the highlight of "Nine Lives", but has been burdened by it, because the emotional development of the movie is only a perfunctory thing. The hasty, routine template and the whims of the first incarnation of the cat are faulty.
In addition to being cute, the biggest feeling of "Nine Lives" is that it is rushed. Many characters or emotional deposits that could have been more in-depth are often only taken by one stroke. In the only 87 minutes, except for the plot foreshadowing and selling cute and funny, so There is almost no time left for family love to brew. The movie doesn't seem to know that the proposition of home is the core of this movie that can impress people, but it only focuses on the coldness and cuteness of a cat. The embarrassment of taking the lead finally makes it difficult to say how sincere the film's emotional creation is, and some are just full of routines.
Using cat fairy tales to describe this movie is far more apt than the seemingly ups and downs title of "Nine Lives", because although this is a family comedy with its own cuteness and cat as the cut, it is not. Not a laudable movie masterpiece.
