Ambitious, creative and tremendously violent

This certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea but I quite enjoyed the sheer nihilistic futility of it all. Catfight is certainly original and takes on a narrative that keeps you guessing right to the end. There are some great digs at the pretentiousness of modern art and some gloriously violent fight scenes. You may hate it but it's definitely worth a try if you enjoy black comedy.

Two cats with shiny claws...

"Catfight" had everything it needed to be a great comedy, but it managed to muster nothing more than rising up to mediocrity. And I believe that is was because of the script and because of director Onur Tukel.

I will say that the two lead performers Sandra Oh and Anne Heche did carry the movie quite well, but they just struggled with what turned out to be a mediocre movie overall.

There were some hilarious fight scenes in the movie, completely topped off with some over-the-top sound effects. The sounds were just too much, which added to the absurdity of the scenes themselves. And it was fun to see Anne Heche and Sandra Oh duke it out a couple of times throughout the movie.

Seeing Alicia Silverstone and Amy Hill in the movie was also nice, despite them only having minor roles. But they did add some flavor to the movie for sure.

It was the storyline in the movie that was the most troublesome aspect of the movie, as it turned out. Sure, it started out great enough, but it just became too weird and ended up as being a spoof on itself, and the movie suffered from that.

"Catfight" has a few good scenes, some funny fight scenes and some cheap laughs here and there, but overall not an impressive comedy. If you are looking for a good, wholesome comedy, then your time, money and effort is better spent elsewhere.

I did manage to see the movie to the end, although the twist of events towards the last third of the movie was just too much. I mean, what are the chances of that actually happening to revese the situation like that?

All in all, then "Catfight" is a movie that you will watch once, then it will fade into oblivion, because it just wasn't outstanding or overly memorable.

Definitely funny, but in a really disturbing and gloomy way.

'CATFIGHT': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five)

An action-comedy written and directed by veteran indie filmmaker Onur Tukel. It stars Sandra Oh and Anne Heche as two women involved in a very bitter, and sometimes extremely violent, lifelong rivalry. The movie costars Alicia Silverstone, Amy Hill, Giullian Yao Gioiello, Craig Bierko and Dylan Baker. It had a limited release in indie theaters, and on video on demand, and now it's available to rent on video. It's a crazy film, but surprisingly insightful (in a really dark and twisted way).

Veronica Salt (Oh) and Ashley Miller (Heche) were friends in college, but they drifted apart over the years. Veronica is now a wealthy housewife, with a teenage son (Gioiello). Ashley is now a struggling artist, that's trying to conceive a child with her girlfriend (Silverstone). When the two meet at a party, after not seeing each other for several years, they immediately start judging and offending each other. Then the insults turn into a violent (and very bloody) brawl, that leaves the two in a bitter grudge match for many years to come.

The film is definitely funny, but in a really disturbing and gloomy way. It's also very violent, in a very shocking and unsettling way as well. The script is pretty clever though, and the two lead performances are both great in it. It's a hard movie to watch at times, and it doesn't leave you feeling very positive about things when it's over, but it is a very interesting and insightful film too. I would definitely still recommend it.
