Cool cat saves the kids is a bad movie, a very bad movie. I think everyone knows that by now. But not even the movie itself can be compared to how disgustingly hypocritical the creator turned out to truly be. Derek Savage. Enough with the joke reviews. Cool Cat Saves The Kids really is a joke, and not the funny type. Its a movie that makes you cringe in fear of what was going through people's heads while filming it and why the hell they thought this movie would be right, or even appropriate for children. And even though movies can be bad, i rarely ever have anything against the director for making it, like it's not offending me in anyway. It's their vision, their movie. I really don't have anything in me that wants me to hate them for it. But that was before Mr Savage decided to blackmail an amazing YouTuber called I Hate Everything for attempting to have a stab at the movie just for a bit of entertainment. What followed was Derek, a 50 year old man, deliberately trying to frighten, intimidate and threaten a young adult for simply trying to review a movie. Sure IHE might have said some nasty things, but any normal director would have just moved on and try to learn from their mistakes. But that was nothing compared to what IHE got in return. Threatening a young man to go to court for simply reviewing a movie. If your reading this Derek Savage, all I'm trying to tell you is..... Just grow up. You're a 50 something year old man, you've spent a lot more time on this world than IHE has, so why are you acting like a child, and even more so... and ironically a bully. Act like a mature person and stop bullying people that are smaller than you. Everything Cool Cat stands for.
Cool Cat Saves The Kids is a symbolic masterpiece directed by Derek Savage that is not only satirical in the way it makes fun of the media and politics, but in the way in questions as how we humans live life and how society tells us to live life.
Before I get into those details, I wanna talk about the special effects in this film. They are ASTONISHING, and it shocks me that Cool Cat Saves The Kids got snubbed by the Oscars for Best Special Effects. This film makes 2001 look like garbage, and the directing in this film makes Stanley Kubrick look like the worst director ever. You know what other film did that? Birdemic: Shock and Terror. Both of these films are masterpieces, but if I had to choose my favorite out of the 2, I would have to go with Cool Cat Saves The Kids. It is now my 10th favorite film of all time.
Now, lets get into the symbolism: So you might be asking yourself, Why is Cool Cat Orange? Well, I can easily explain. Orange is a color. Orange is also a fruit, and its a very good fruit. You know what else is good? Good behavior. What behavior does Cool Cat have? He has good behavior. This cannot be a coincidence, since cool cat has good behavior in the film.
Now, why is Butch The Bully fat? Well, fat means your wide. You wanna know who was wide? Hitler. Nuff said this cannot be a coincidence.
Why does Erik Estrada suspect Butch The Bully to be a bully? Well look at it this way. What color of a shirt was Butchy wearing when he walks into the area? I don't know, its looks like dark purple/dark blue. Why rhymes with dark? Mark. Mark is that guy from the Room. The Room is the best movie of all time. What is the opposite of best? Worst. This is how Erik knew Butch was a bully.
and finally, how come Vivica A. Fox isn't having a successful career after making Kill Bill.
I actually can't answer that question.
Well thanks for reading my review.

This film is an abomination. There is no movie making know-how - it's a badly made home-made movie. Apart from the awful acting, lack of discernible plot, terrible lighting, and clichéd dialogue, it's got terrible advice on bullying.
I advise any parents whose children are being bullied to read Sticks and Stones by Emily Bazelon (this isn't a book to read with your children, it's quite heavy) rather than get their kids to watch this trite garbage, which is frankly a dangerous approach to handling bullying!
A good review by "I Hate Everything" among others on YouTube is under heavy attack by the creator of this film, despite having kept within Fair Use licensing... so much for free speech and the right to criticize. There is currently a petition on change.org if you'd like to support IHE.

When this movie's creator pulls down criticism from YouTube such as IHE's video and who knows what else, you know it's bad. He uses copyright strikes through YouTube's incredibly broken copyright system as well as calling people who dislike the movie "haters" and "bullies" like some 13-year-old making Minecraft let's plays. Removing any reviews which don't praise the work does not suddenly make it good, and shouldn't fool anyone. The expectations this sets up are entirely justified - besides the terrible acting, shaky camera-work, and cringeworthy dialogue, this is probably the only movie that somehow still thinks large yellow Comic Sans is an acceptable font.
Thought "The Godfather", "Star Wars", "Goodfellas" and "Fight Club" are amazing masterpieces that simply cannot be topped by any other filmmaker of this generation? Think again! With "Cool Cat Saves the Kids", directed by the always impressive Derek Savage, it tackles difficult issues such as disability, bullying, pedophilia, schizophrenia, and the urge to dress as a cat that loves babies with such deft and well-crafted hand that comparing this to any other film out there would be nothing but shameful. This film is layered with complex and fully-realized characters (where else will you see a child skipping on the sidewalk? It's amazing!), multi-layered story lines that aren't always easy to follow but are engrossing nonetheless, terrific performances, top-notch editing, witty humor, and the much-discussed ending that allows audiences to ponder about Cool Cat's motivations and what would become of his future. It even has some clever social-commentary about the dangers of deleting YouTube movie reviews for "copyright issues" even though you're doing it just to hide your deepest emotions. Don't miss this!
It is, as Cool Cat says, "GROOOOVY!"
