Not gonna lie, I didn't really know how to feel about this movie when it first got announced, I was just kind of happy that Catwoman will finally get a new solo movie, Like seriously, when was the last we got a GOOD solo Catwoman movie for crying out loud, Firstly, we got the hilariously awful 2004 live-action Catwoman movie and then we got a 2D animated Catwoman showcase a couple of years ago, and that was kind of it..
So I was pretty excited for the movie and thankfully it didn't disappoint, This movie was so much fun, Even though the was basically 80% action and 20% Catwoman messing with Batwoman, I still had a lot of fun with it!
Catwoman attends a Masquerade party with Black Mask, Of course, Catwoman being Catwoman, she wandered on her own to go and steal the green priceless diamond that is locked behind a giant bank safe, As I said, this movie doesn't really have that much of a story, It's more an action movie more than anything and thankfully, the action is great!
The animation is pretty great too, except some animation looking a bit goofy here and there and CGI cars looking a bit outdated, I think this art style really fits Catwoman's character, The producers said that the biggest inspiration for this movie was "Lupin III" and I could totally see that!
The jazzy smooth score is really good too, The voice cast is really good too, and the fact that Batwoman is voiced by the same chick who voiced Mirabel in Disney's Encanto is just incredible!
Of course I have some complaints like how the movie introduces like 8 characters and doesn't really do that much with them, I guess I shouldn't blame the movie is only 1 hour and 18 minutes, so I guess they didn't really had that much to work with, but still even with that, I still think that Catwoman: Hunted is really fun, charming colorful action flick!
And I already know a lot of Batman fans won't like this movie because it's not dark and gritty and suspenseful like other animated DC movies, but hey, having a little bit of fun won't kill anyone right, Not every Batwoman related thing has to be The Dark Knight trilogy, Live a little :)
