Jeanna Fine has stated that this is one of her most favorite films she has made to date. That in itself is what led me to it. Jeanna plays a woman who gets off making obscene phone calls to men. In this case, Scott Irish is their victim after he receives one such phone call and it turns him on, so he listens. Because of this, both Jeanna and her girlfriend Brandy Alexander decided to stalk Scott and come over to his house uninvited.
What makes this movie good is suspense. You are kept guessing how the characters will react to both Jeanne and Brandy's advances. In most porn films the characters are usually half-undressed and willing to get it on with anyone and everyone. Not so here. Throughout the whole movie, until the last scene involving two married couples with Jeanne and Brandy, I wasn't sure how the characters would react to their advances. It makes the action even more arousing, when you aren't' sure who is a "sure thing" and who might say no. Plus, Jeanne is again at her best here with her talent for erotic, dirty talk that always gets me going.
The only critique I have is that it seemed to be a bit short. Maybe that's why they made the sequel?

Suffering from unconvincing psychology and a false "surprise" ending, "Cat and Mouse" is otherwise an effective femme fatale story, notable for the perfect acting by Jeanna Fine in the lead role. As often is the case, she's far better than the script.
Story begins with her as an unusual obscene phone caller, who works in tandem with Brandy Alexandre. Their first mark is Scott Irish, with the movie swiftly moving into standard homewrecker mode, as she maneuvers to sleep with both Scott and his wife Cassidy. Unfortunately, it's not believable how she accomplishes this, but a porn viewer is expected (and likely) to suspend disbelief in order to enjoy the sex.
Her partner Brandy is similarly successful in homewrecker approach with Mike Horner, resulting in a rather preposterous gathering of the cast together, not for the reading of a will or other "Knives Out" scene, but rather to stress voyeurism and kink as other sexual configurations are forced on the "innocent" victims.
The sinister nature of Jeanna's performance holds the thin movie together, and the attempted clever ending doesn't ring true. In a mainstream movie a few rewrites would have upped the credibility of each twist and turn, but instead director Michael Craig presents us with a take it or leave it attitude towards storytelling that is a letdown.
