Sounds good,,did not see it the first time but will this time when it comes around

People seem to have either a love or a hate relationship with "Cats." I'm sort of "eh" about it; it's one of my least-favorite ALW scores, and the only song from the show that has any legs is "Memory." That being said, it's an odd-enough concept that it works as a theater piece, but even after watching the trailer, I'm not sure how it would work as a movie.

Yeah, "Memory" is about the only thing I really like from the show. Here are my two favorite renditions: Elaine Paige, who originated the role of Grizabella in the West End production in London, and Betty Buckley, who originated it on Broadway (and took home a Tony Award). What I like is there's a lot of subtlety in their performances, which makes the simple melody haunting.

Actually, the song you are referring to, the only hit song from the show, is called Memory and yes, it is simple and repetitive, but when performed well it is really touching and beautiful, even if the song has become a cliche with all the times it's performed at talent shows and elementary school music concerts.

Has classic great songs

I have never seen it

I have been enslaved by cats for a number of years. I have given-up long ago trying to escape...there is no hope. They own me.

I am by no means a hater of Cats, but I will pass on seeing this movie version. I am fine with holding to my own memory of seeing it here in Iowa a long time ago with a national tour of it and my dvd recording of it from PBS of a Broadway production of it. I can only assume the film version will not hold up to the older stage versions of it.
