roei_avril An exciting movie. About love and succeeding in getting up that everything seems to be lost

SnoopyStyle James (Luke Treadaway) is a homeless addict busking on the streets of London. He is estranged from his father Jack Bowen who has a young family. After his OD, overworked social worker Val takes a chance on him and sets him up in temporary housing in a rundown apartment block. He finds a cat in his new home and names him Bob. He is befriended by animal lover Betty. Bob becomes his constant companion and his savior.It's all straight forward and heart-warming. It's not pushing that hard. The drug issue is handled gently despite the death. The cat is cute enough although I can do without the cat's POV. The only thing missing is a great catchy song. The busking songs are fine but nothing exceptional. The performances are solid. This is gentle heart-felt movie that hits the right notes.

krocheav After reading a brief synopsis of this movie figured it could be interesting – then followed a strong recommendation from friends. It certainly proved worth the time and money (if sadly not quite so for the producers). This is the sort of project I imagine several directors may have taken a look at the script then run screaming from the room. There's actually not much more the producers could have achieved with the material - other than the treatment they've ended up with. The initial story is a grim battle to overcome drug addiction and death among the homeless. Add to this, the heavy participation of a cat - which meant the final product then, had to please two totally opposite audiences. The outcome is a decent balance between a deathly harrowing real life situation and a rising-above-the-rot victory. Among other things, the movie shows us it's a bit of a worry that people don't seem to want to give to street dwellers and beggars but, add a cat to your situation and the money comes rolling in. Yes, most everyone has a different attraction to Animals – rightly or wrongly.This is relatively easy to understand, to a degree. I suppose many people have become cynical through being 'taken-for-ride' by the con artists - who spoil it for those genuinely doing it tough. What lifts this one above being an overly sugary mix is the fact this partnership, is built on the unique need to survive on the mean streets and simultaneously overcome the devil on the skids. The Cat (played by the real Bob) is an undeniable trooper and these hapless lost souls find strength to go that extra mile from each other. Performances are neat enough and the production manages to look impressive - even while trundling out some grim London situations. Some songs seem manufactured for the movie but they work well, so this is not a drawback. It's a delicate balancing act but the message is delivered in such a manner - that most audiences should come away with something to feel positive about and, regard it all as well worth the time.

areatw If ever there was a true story that was just destined to be turned into a movie, then this is surely it. 'A Street Cat Named Bob' is the story of the unlikely friendship between a recovering drug addict, James Bowen, and a stray ginger cat, who he named Bob. It's a heartwarming story and a film that can be enjoyed by everyone, not just cat lovers.The film deserves a lot of credit for ensuring that James' battle with addiction always remains at the forefront of what happens on screen. They could have easily got carried away with Bob the cat and neglected to include the harsh realities of James' situation, but thankfully they didn't make that mistake and the film is a lot better for it.'A Street Cat Named Bob' is the perfect feel good film, despite some depressing themes. It's the type of story that just has to be heard, and now it's been turned into a movie, even more people can enjoy this amazing friendship.
