Lucky Cat!
30 April 2004
Question: How many unlikeable people can you fit in one film?

Answer: As many as appear in P.S. Your Cat is Dead.

Rarely has a movie with such potential turned out so badly. The acting is atrocious. The usually adept Steve Guttenberg, who also directs this debacle, is, to put it kindly, horrid. The once magnificent Shirley Knight is reduced to a bad cartoon character. The rest of the cast should remain nameless.

This tale of a down-on-his luck actor/writer on New Year's Eve confronted with a gay burglar who's ripped him off many times before just ain't funny, and it's not even fun!

Even the direction is off-center. Filmed in closeups, with odd angles and missing body parts, this is a splash of color with no substance and nowhere to go.

I guess this is supposed to have a happy ending and we're supposed to end up wiser. I'm not. Just older. Oh, and P.S. - the cat is dead! P.P.S. The cat is lucky!
