Catfight (I) (2016)
7/10
It's a hard to describe experience

I saw this at its TIFF World Premiere, with little knowledge of the director/writer. All I knew is that Sandra Oh and Anne Heche were in it and a catfight was promised. In that promise, it delivered. The catfights were brutal and visceral, although it did loose steam a bit in its third act. But beyond its slowing last act and catfights, through it's mix of political jabs, intense performances, dark humour and many "I seen that actor/actress" cameos, it still all came together in a strange hard to describe experience that needs to be viewed. As it is, for a film shot in 16 days, it's weird, it's clunky but also refreshing. This is a director with a distinct point of view and style which may not be for everyone but find out for yourself.
