Cat Person (I) (2023)
7/10
Raises lots of important issues and questions without really addressing any - but well worth watching

This was interesting. It touched on many issues in modern dating (consent, age differences, power dynamics, trust, 'game playing', when the same behaviour can be seen as creepy or attractive depending on who it is,lll from and the disposable nature of relationships) and wider issues too (feminism, friendships) and did this without really delving deeply into or really addressing them. It was also told from the point of view of one character and it would have been interesting to have had the views of the other main character shared directly and more explicitly. However, I found it well made and quite gripping - I was completely immersed in the story and couldn't wait to find out what happened next (which is pretty rare for me). There was lots of well aimed humour in it too. I found the ending a little dissatisfying and a bit of an anti climax - but it was well worth a watch - I enjoyed it.
