“Nine Lives,” Kevin Spacey’s new family comedy about a stuffy businessman who finds himself trapped inside the body of his family’s cat, is now in theaters. The movie is directed by Barry Sonnenfeld and also co-stars Jennifer Garner, Christopher Walken and Robbie Amell. The first reviews are in, and it’s not looking like critics are wild about this feline flick.
IndieWire’s David Ehrlich gave the film a D, writing in his review: “Cats may have nine lives, but you only get one, and it’s too precious to waste on this drivel. You’re better off watching a gif of a cat whose face is stuck in a slice of bread. It will save you $20 and a few hours of your time.”
