Catwoman

Me-OW! Remember in 2004 when a comic-book adaptation starring a woman was still a novel concept? Oh wait: It still is, even in 2025, because we’re in a patriarchal nightmare world. Anyway, Oscar winner Halle Berry takes on the night – and shoots a few hoops – after she nearly drowns due to the evil overlords of a makeup company. A mysterious kitty saved her life, you see, and granted her feline abilities like übersharp reflexes. Although this prowler doesn’t write Selina Kyle on her government docs (they went instead with the alliterative Patience Phillips), Berry still brings the kicks, flips, and gray morality common to the Catwoman character. Is that enough to save a flaccid and vaguely misogynist script? I’m not paw-sitive. – James Scott
