    Catwoman: The best DC Showcase I've seen

    Warner Brothers deliver yet another DC Showcase, this time about Catwoman who is by far the most well known of the hero choices thus far.

    It tells the short story of Catwoman in pursuit of Rough Cut who appears to be smuggling more than just diamonds this time.

    Fluid, action packed and well paced this is everything a short should be.

    I'm a fan of Dushku but I question how much she was paid for this 14 minute short considering she speaks about 3 lines total!

    Good stuff.

    The Good:

    Very well animated

    Eliza Dushku

    The Bad:

    Very little dialogue yet has an expensive voice cast

    Things I Learnt From This Movie:

    Kevin Michael Richardson needs to learn some new voices

    DC Showcase: Catwoman

    A rather simple fifth DC Showcase, entertaining at times and with a decent reflective message. Now it's time to present the character of Catwoman in more depth, as a continuation of the movie "Batman: Year One," adding some quite interesting details about this version of the cat.

    Lauren Montgomery returns with her great potential, love, and affection for the characters of the publishing house. Honestly, the director knows what happened, leaving a quite memorable animated universe in high regard. Their presence in every production is admirable.

    The short film has an outstanding quality in animation, with a brutal fluidity of movement, a dark color palette that enhances the story being told, and a strong connection to the style that represents Catwoman. The lines drawn in my home speak for themselves. The action scenes are very well executed with a high level of detail in every movement. A simple yet decent soundtrack.

    The short emphasizes love, care, and protection for our loved ones, doing everything within our power to find them and save them from danger. Furthermore, it involves justice with extreme, bold, and not-so-common measures. The streets of Gotham are a representation of smuggling, danger, death, and complicity.

    I find the character design quite good. Selina Kyle has some enhancements compared to the aforementioned movie, being visually appealing, beautiful, and very sexy. Our villain Rough Cut is quite impressive, although it could have been executed better and had more combat moments.

    For now, it's the DC Showcase with the lowest rating, but that doesn't mean it's bad. He/She deserves a chance.

    Of course, I would also like a dance with Catwoman.

    Don't Listen to the Other Reviewer

    This DC showcase Catwoman short is dark, gritty and absolutely fantastic. Thank you Paul Dini once again, you are a master at your craft. I personally love this short and was totally impressed, I think I like it even more than the feature. I read a comment that this should be made into a Catwoman animated series and I for one would definitely watch that. I don't no how this is rated in the 6's on IMDb unless people are rating it a 1 because they expected something for little kids like Batman: Brave and the Bold. I actually think this is the best animated DC product since Batman: Under the Red Hood, and really hope they continue to make more in this style. Adult, Dark & Gritty, with some sweet action throughout (something Year One could've used a little bit more of in my opinion along with a new voice actor for Batman (sorry but Ben Mackensie from Dawson's Creek just doesn't cut it for me, personally if I couldn't get Kevin Conroy, I would look into getting someone like Crispin Freeman to voice Batman). OK back on topic, I'm going to comment on what the previous reviewer said about DC comics and the Catwoman short being sexist (LOL), OH No they showed Catwoman stripping partly (no nudity) in a strip club. It's rated PG-13, GET A LIFE. I swear you see a lot more degrading things watching Miley Cyrus or Lindsey Lohan.

    As good as it gets....

    One of the best comic book adaptations I've ever seen- simply because it was made before Hollywood turned every female lead into a dull mary-sue.

    And a mary-sue Catwoman ain't!

    Sure, she kicks ass, but more importantly, she also gets her ass kicked too.

    A great little self-contained story, filled with action, drama, humour, and the kind of writing that modern "writers" could- and SHOULD- learn a thing or two from.

    The animation is slick, with Catwoman showing some great moves in the fight scenes, the voice acting is spot on, and there's not a second of fat or padding to be found- something sorely lacking in this day and age.

    A well deserved 9/10.

      Catwoman: You're smuggling more than diamonds, aren't you, Roughcut? Something far more precious. A little kitty told me.

      Rough Cut: And you want a piece, is that it? Okay, keep your mouth shut and I'll cut you in for 10 percent.

      Catwoman: I'll do the cutting here.
