I think this article lacks enough information about WHY Catwoman is considered so terrible. It confused me. Is the only reason people don't like this movie because it's not really based off Batman's catwoman? Kevin 02:01, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
I've had the same problem. Everyone says the movie sucked, but I saw it and I don't think it sucked. As for her getting killed and coming back, the magic cat revives her, so apparently the people at the theater weren't paying attention. TheRaven7 23:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, that annoys me too. I mean, I liked it, and everyone else seems to be bashing it for no reason. -- 81.233.196.49 ( talk) 21:15, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
yeah and how much profit did the film make when released? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.193.25.242 ( talk) 23:19, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
(For the above comment) what do you expect when Press and critics batter the film before its cinema release, It put people off it. I think if the critics had shut up the film would of been up in the 150-200m range, it was a really good movie but the same goes for all movies, its critics that harm the box office totals of a lot of big budgeted movies when they slate the movies but each of them forget that it's an opinion and not fact what they say. 91.105.14.104 ( talk) 15:00, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
I think you misunderstood; he was saying that it made $80 million (a huge amount of money) regardless of critics' opinions, so that's pretty good. You think the studios somehow deserve to make money? No, they have to earn it. Critics help us avoid wasting our money and therefore supporting crappy films. Having such a big budget was their choice. 76.10.156.237 ( talk) 00:11, 30 April 2011 (UTC) Also, read your own post: "it was a really good movie", then "each of them forget that it's an opinion and not fact" - in that case, keep your opinions to yourself. 76.10.156.237 ( talk) 00:15, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
The movie studios have a schedule planned to release a major superhero-themed movie every summer, and due to problems with the production of the new Batman movie, Catwoman was greenlighted for production instead to fill its spot in the schedule at the last minute. - this is that the end of 'Response', and looks quite dated. Not only that, but I think this is an unattributed and unsourced quote. I think it should be removed or at least heavily edited. Luis Dantas 00:12, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
I suggest that Catwoman 2 be merged into this article, and the former be redirected here. An article about a movie that didn't make it seems superfluous to me, unless there is a significant amount of information on it. -- Chris (talk) 18:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Maybe rework the Razzie acceptance, Berry really took it on the chin - and went to collect the award, and did a self-mocking reprise of her tearful acceptance of the Oscar for Monsters Ball. She got a lot of credit and goodwill for doing so. Or did I remember it different to any one else? Gavin Bl 14:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Look, I can understand the rage of all the DC comics nerds who expected to see Selina Kyle but got Patience Phillips instead. Suggesting that the movie had anything whatsoever to do with anything ever previously done by DC Comics in any way whatsoever was obviously one of the worst advertising blunders of crappy superhero movie history.
With that said, I think people have expected way too much from this movie, expecting it to be something it wasn't intended by it's creators to be and if you try to separate it from anything DC-Comics related and watch it as an example of your typical mindless Hollywood action flick with just enough story to justify some fun Face Punching, then it's not a particularly bad example of that hopeless genre of Hollywood films. Surely someone somewhere has reviewed it positively?? Anyone? Anywhere? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.193.112.148 ( talk) 02:51, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
the movie was a success doesn't matter what critics say, despise taking 80mil out of a budget of 100mil the DVD sales took it over the budget in some distance making it a profit film, the film was get it 'LOOSELY' based on DC's comic, too many compared it to the comics (Aka the Razzies), gets up my nose because Catwoman was a brilliantly made movie and it should garner a sequel with Halle but because of bad press it won't get one. 91.105.14.104 ( talk) 14:55, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Brilliantly-made? Please give me some of what you're smoking, I would like to watch it again and enjoy it this time. 76.10.156.237 ( talk) 00:22, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
I actually thought it was a great film. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.6.134.41 ( talk) 18:52, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
What is that term supposed to mean? -- Mika1h ( talk) 20:22, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
Some of this section makes little sense. 86.136.170.58 ( talk) 12:53, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

One of the credited writers said the film was bad recently when conservative commentators mentioned Catwoman in discussions about Black Panther. It might be worth mentioning in the critical response section, or if the writing and production details are expanded. -- 109.79.163.79 ( talk) 16:16, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
I've removed the unsupported claim that this film was a box office bomb. Even though it made less than the production budget, that is not enough to call it a bomb or a flop, sources are still needed. (Found more than one edit where bomb was added by anonymous editors.) -- 109.79.124.184 ( talk) 03:33, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
