Despite her artistic ability -- she has a more than respectable career as a graphic designer for Hedare Beauty, a Goliath cosmetics company -- Patience is excruciatingly shy, quick to take blame, and, not surprisingly, more than a little depressed at the end of the day. This comes to somewhat of a screeching halt when Patience not only inadvertently lands herself in the middle of a corporate conspiracy of gargantuan proportions, but on the city police force's most wanted list. Newly quipped with a mysterious feline prowess, Patience is a different person come nighttime -- more accurately, a catwoman. Elusive, untamed, powerful, stealthy, and not necessarily prone to erring on the side of good, Patience has gone from doormat to vigilante. Police officer Tom Lone (Benjamin Bratt), who has fallen for shy Patience, is determined to apprehend Catwoman and figure out her role in a recent crime spree, though his fascination with her doesn't cease with the end of his shift and it threatens to lead to the downfall of himself, his investigation, and the woman who was once the timid Patience Philips. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Critic Reviews

, Time Out
You're left with flashes of mis-spent promise: the feline mysticism; the cosmetics-industry intrigue; the idea of electrocuting Lambert Wilson's unctious corporate cad.
-
Noah Berlatsky, Chicago Reader
Obviously, no one involved in this disaster cares anything at all about Catwoman.
-
Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine
When is a cat a dog? When it's Catwoman.
-
Rex Reed, New York Observer
The kind of movie that almost guarantees the loss of a few I.Q. points.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
This is barely a film -- it's more like a music video-slash- TV-commercial- slash-computer game.
