good back-story, and good acting

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Where to begin, this movie is the worst thing
I have ever seen. First, this movie does not have an original bone in its body. The movie break the 4th wall more than Ferris Bueller's day off and Deadpool combined. Their 4th wall breaks and reference humor is never funny, it just drains your life essence with each crappy reference. Two of the villains in the "film" are just terrible recreations of Marv and Harry from Home alone. The plot is just a D list Paul Blart story with predictable twist. The acting and the cinematography are the same as any other lifetime movie, bland and boring. I hoped going in to the movie I could at least laugh at the movie for being so bad, but I could not even do that. I had one laugh throughout the whole experience, one fat joke at beginning of the movie, an admittedly low hanging fruit. I should have listen to the Grumpy Cat when it told me multiple times during the "film" to stop watching this garbage movie, something she stressed after each commercial break.

Sharp-eared viewers who catch Aubrey Plaza (as Grumpy Cat) introduce Meghan Charpentier's white-trash-named and spelled "Chrystal" as "part of the last generation on a dying planet" understand they are in for a seditious battering of all things bright and beautiful. Grumpy Cat's venom spews equally over Chrystal, Christmas, modern American mall culture, parenting, and all the tenants of Lifetime movies. How this thing finagled a "G" rating is a thing of mystery if no other reason than a fantasy sequence when Grumpy is tied down and gassed to death. The movie doesn't break as much as just ignores the fourth wall with Grumpy returning from commercial breaks expressing disbelief that the audience is still watching and wonder why you don't do something more productive with your limited lifespan. When the plot slows, bubbles with Grumpy in them appear to lampoon the current action or to just talk about something more interesting. Evan Todd and Isaac Haig as the baddies (although everyone comes across as fairly useless) trade quips worth of a Tarantino film with out the sickening pretense. Daniel Roebuck as super creepy mall guard "George" brings a discomforting weirdness particularly when he hits on young, female mall workers. If it all sounds like the satire of the standard Lifetime Christmas movie went a little overboard then you got that right. In short, if you like your chocolate Santa's and your comedies dark, this is a must see (keep the kids away from it).

Grumpy Cat (voice Aubrey Plaza) is hopelessly unsellable in the shopping mall pet store. She's very grumpy. The pet store is close to being closed but then they get a million $ dog. Mall Santa gives little girl Chyrstal a wish and she asks for a friend. She helps out at the pet store and discovers that she can hear Grumpy. A couple of idiots try to dognap after the mall closes. Chyrstal goes back to the pet store after hours. Grumpy reluctantly helps Chyrstal thwart the dognapping.Aubrey Plaza is the perfect sarcastic voice for Grumpy Cat. The movie works whenever she's doing Grumpy Cat. She gets to break down the fourth wall. She's great. The problem is the lame story surrounding Grumpy and the bad acting. The characters range from bland to annoying. Zack and Donny are really important comic characters like the Wet Bandits in Home Alone. But the actors are pretty bad. It's a Grumpy Cat movie that needs more Grumpy Cat, anything to keep the movie away from all the bad acting.

The one thing that redeems this movie pretty well is that they not only penetrate the fourth wall but they utterly demolish and incinerate it. Most of the movie is Grumpy Cat addressing the viewer directly.9/10 of the movie is references to the Grumpy Cat media and her tschotske empire of branded crap. So they even play with crass materialism. They reference "memes" in the movie. The hipster's darling Aubrey Plaza is totally in her element playing the voice of a sarcastic, dismissive cat. Pretty much April from Parks and Recreation channeled through a cat.This movie would actually be pretty good to put a recording of in a time capsule. In 100 years it would be a significant document of internet culture of the present day.
