          Painful

          I'm not quite sure why this movie was made. Even a mediocre film student would have hung his head in shame with this effort. This was apparently two different movies shot at two different times with two different casts, which neither was strong enough to prop itself into a corner to support itself alone.

          It wasn't even entertaining which, at the end of the day, is about the only reason that an action/adventure movie is made.

          Kudos to the director and editor for having the guts to slap these pieces of film together, although they had no storyline, acting, visual appeal, or even anything in common with each other. Also credit must be given to the company which made the blender into which the film must have been thrown for editing.

          Not even worth a laugh.

          I bought this at a K-Mart for two dollars, and that was money wasted. This film makes little to no sense, and despite the way it was packaged, it is not a superhero film, but in fact a poorly made Chinese martial arts movie. The hero, US Catman, does not make an appearance until a good 45 minutes in, when the only American in the movie is scratched by a radioactive cat and acquires the power to fly and shoot lasers out of his eyes with special effects that border on nonexistence. These powers came from a cat mind you. (best line, his friend says, "What are your powers, can you knock down brick walls, or like matches with your mind?") Otherwise they're appears to be some sort of criminal cartel in the mountains, and a female martial artist who wants to bring them down. I wish I could say more, but I honestly don't understand the rest of the film.

          I love bad movies (I own "Backyard Dogs"), but this one is almost uncomfortable to watch.

          the most hilarious movie that wasn't supposed to be funny.

          ah yes, catman.

          its an awful dub with stiff voice actors and poor acting in general. basically we have a middle aged guy who gets scratched by a radioactive cat. all of a sudden he can turn his tv ON AND OFF without a remote, thats right fellas, no remote, no buttons, CRAZY SPECIAL EFFECTS EH?

          after that, he decided it would be a good idea if he punched a hole in his apartment, so he does.

          in the night he magically aquires a black jumpsuit with a sticker of a cat on it, some visor with a plastic dongle in the middle and a cat computer. we dont' see the cat computer, but we can only assume it must be awesome.

          this movie is really like two stories in one, you get to watch a bunch of angry asian guys talk with each other, kill people, and swear for no apparent reason. 2 stories in one indeed. catman and the angry asians never really meet.

          the ending is simply FANTASTIC

          i'd say this film is well worth the purchase price, i found it in the 1 dollar bin at a used bookstore. the cover alone is hilarious.

          just buy it if you see it, it'll make you laugh when you watch it, and it'll make you cry when its over...once you realize it wasn't supposed to be funny.

          i can't tell you what happens in the end, but i can say that the plastic dongle on his glasses ends up being the most important dongle the world has EVER seen.

          Catman is one of the best movie ever.

          My friend bought Catman at a local store and ever since Catman has become The Greatest Movie ever made in the history of all that exists. The man who wrote the script for this movie was a genius. The actors were also geniuses in their own way.This movie had me and my friends laughing for months. I mean, this movie never gets old. No matter how many times you watch it, you will crack up every time at one of the characters witty remarks. To finish my review, if you want to see a movie that will make you laugh until you throw up, see Catman in Lethal Track.

          Crap in the Best Way

          I HOPE you are kidding by saying that this movie is great. I mean, don't get me wrong, it is fun in an MST3K sort of way... but to actually say this is a good movie in print, well, that could get you sued for libel. I mean, this movie SUCKED in every sense of the word and to make matters worse, it told two completely separate stories that didn't even connect! What was with Catman's secret weapon? It looked like concentrated cat urine! I don't even know what this movie was supposed to be about. Davis Lynch couldn't follow this crap plot. On the other hand, it is enjoyable to watch because of all the bad lines, horrible acting, lame special effects, and the overall guano story. Bottomline: Pick this up if you want a good, cheap laugh. In the words of the great Tom Servo, "Still, it's a better movie than Batman and Robin."
