-Grumpy Cat has his own (Lifetime) movie and pairs up with a little girl to save a store in the mall from being robbed and, along the way, learn values of having friends.
-I'll be honest, for a Lifetime movie I actually didn't hate it. Yup.
-I really could not care for the story they borrowed from Mall Cop. It's just silly.
-The pace is not bad, but it does have some problems staying on track with some really irrelevant scene.
-I'll go ahead and point out the best thing about it: Throughout the entire film, Grumpy Cat, still in character, talks about how horrible the film is. This includes cheesy product placements, meme references, other film references, breaking the fourth wall a lot, and slamming Lifetime movies hard. Well played Grumpy Cat. Well played .
-The acting is on-par with a Lifetime movie. Cheesy and over-the-top. The voice of Grumpy cat is annoying, but pretty fitting actually.
-The music is like the worst Christmas music ever. Grumpy Cat pointed it out.
-The moral lesson in it also doesn't really add up. But Grumpy Cat pointed that out to.
-It is rated-G and has some jokes that should really make it PG.
-So as a film it's not that good, but it points out all of its own flaws in a funny way. Still not great though. I would probably give it a very high 6.5, and if you are interested it's not a bad watch on Netflix/Redbox. But if you are like 'meh' like most people will be, Grumpy Cat's Worth Christmas Ever is not really worth watching.

Grumpy Cat (voice Aubrey Plaza) is hopelessly unsellable in the shopping mall pet store. She's very grumpy. The pet store is close to being closed but then they get a million $ dog. Mall Santa gives little girl Chyrstal a wish and she asks for a friend. She helps out at the pet store and discovers that she can hear Grumpy. A couple of idiots try to dognap after the mall closes. Chyrstal goes back to the pet store after hours. Grumpy reluctantly helps Chyrstal thwart the dognapping.
Aubrey Plaza is the perfect sarcastic voice for Grumpy Cat. The movie works whenever she's doing Grumpy Cat. She gets to break down the fourth wall. She's great. The problem is the lame story surrounding Grumpy and the bad acting. The characters range from bland to annoying. Zack and Donny are really important comic characters like the Wet Bandits in Home Alone. But the actors are pretty bad. It's a Grumpy Cat movie that needs more Grumpy Cat, anything to keep the movie away from all the bad acting.

When all hope seemed lost for both a lonely cat and a little girl. They suddenly find themselves finding each other. Grumpy Cat (voiced by Aubrey Plaza) a lonely, very cynical and just down right grumpy teams up with Chrystal (played by Megan Charpentier). Along with other animals at the local mall pet shop they all come together to catch three men Donny (played by Isaac Haig), Zack (played by Evan Todd) and George (played by Roebuck) from stealing a very valuable dog that will set the pet shop owner for life. All in a course of Christmas Eve night. This Lifetime channel and Grumpy Cat Limited movie took what was a very popular internet meme that pictured Grumpy Cat (aka Tardar Sauce) in different pictures pretending to say some funny but what would be taken as a cynical way of life. This, however, was made into a made for TV movie. This movie, while seriously lacking in story was filled with lots of one liners, funny little quips, breaking the fourth wall and making fun of Lifetime itself. The movie didn't take itself seriously. It knew it was a comedy and it showed. This movie was a fluff movie. It was made for entertaining at least children if not a whole family that doesn't mind stuff like this. The production value wasn't really there. It all took place at a mall and in several parts Grumpy Cat actually told you about how tight the budget was. It was funny. The acting was OK. You got a sense of what they were trying to accomplish (which by the way wasn't much). The writing at least when it came to the funny parts was actually funny. However, comedies that take a more of a deep feeling route don't always work and in this movie it bombed. You get what they were trying to say, but it didn't mesh as well as you would have hoped. When the script was being written, the writers should have not put deep feelings into this movie. At least not when you get to some sort of philosophy on life. Overall, the movie wasn't bad. It wasn't that great either. It was entertaining and not a bad way to spend a couple of hours. Especially if it is a couple of hours you need to kill. It is mindless popcorn TV movie entertainment. Don't take more out of it. It is what it is. If you have children they may want to watch it more than once. If you are an adult, you may not care too much to see it again. At least for me. Once was enough and I can appreciate attempt on the entertainment value. I give it 2 Grumpy Cats out of 5..
I stumbled upon the 2014 movie "Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever" and were surprised that they even made a movie with this cat. My son wanted to watch the movie, so I ended up sitting down with my son to watch this 2014 movie.
Oddly enough, I will say that the movie was actually entertaining enough. Sure, this was by no means an award-winning movie in any way, but the movie was just strangle entertaining in a way; mostly because of the cat, of course. I must say, at the same time though, that the storyline was fairly simplistic, so you shouldn't be expecting a grand cinematic masterpiece from "Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever".
It was a shame that they had opted for Aubrey Plaza to voice the Grumpy Cat, because her performance was just bland and monotonous. It just felt like the cat had zero energy and spunk. If Aubrey Plaza had gone for a more varied voice performance, the movie would have been all the more enjoyable.
"Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever" is a movie that is aimed for the younger audience, no doubt about it. And yeah, you can sit down as a family and enjoy this movie.
But if you look at the movie objectively and get past the movie being made for the sole purpose of the Grumpy Cat, then this movie was bland. I am rating it a mediocre five out of ten stars.

It's clearly a stupid laugh that shouldn't be taken seriously, but it made my kids and I laugh actually-out-loud more times than expected. Audrey Plaza is the highlight of this film she's having total fun with the script and it shows. Watch with your kids and laugh! 😆🎄🤶
