What can I say, the movie is really silly, but that cat is so beautiful that it's almost a shame being upset because of a dumb screenplay. Surely, Barry Sonnenfeld is no newbie; he knows how to make a family movie. And I have to admit, he succeeded. Don’t go looking for any cinematic qualities, but cat-lovers will surely be satisfied. Christopher Walken is one of them. It is just a pity that Kevin Spacey got to play such an annoying character. After the absurdity of #metoo, it doesn’t add to his reputation.

Considering that this is a family film, which is primarily aimed at children, I was not that excited by it. I watched it mainly for the enticing cast. A rather foolish script and the digital cat gave me the creeps at times. The whole thing felt a bit cold and calculated, yet I had a good time at times. (50%)

The film probably has a deservedly low rating for the fact that you basically already know what this is going to be about because of the title. Once Christopher Walken appears in a role similar to his character in the movie Click, you already know what to expect. It's clichéd, it's straightforward, but I still had a good time, and Kevin Spacey really got me even just with his voice. Plus, Jennifer Garner...

Nine Lives is a quirky film that presents the viewer with one of the most tactless themes ever – the main, severely egotistical character undergoes a predictable plot twist after a sudden intervention from "above" – while also offering an at times dodgy digital cat. So why three stars? Because Barry Sonnenfeld's film is so cringe-worthy in places that it's actually quite funny – but it's certainly not repeat viewing material. Anyway, if you want to see a cat indulging in ninja jumps and skydiving without a parachute is welcome to the screen.
