### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ True and moving story
*by B***S on February 15, 2025*

This is a true and very moving story. I also have the book!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When a Cat's Eyes are the Light at the End of the Tunnel.
*by J***A on July 9, 2018*

Sometimes I like a book better than the movie adaptation. (Stephen King's Needful Things) Other times, I like the movie better than the book (Steven Spielberg's Jaws). On other occasions, I'm happy with both. The chronicles of Narnia series (books and movies) was one such time. And now, A Street Cat Named Bob.Adaptations are funny things. I know of people who just about wanted to crucify a screenwriter for changing aspects of a Poirot novel for the television film ( Appointment with Death) . For me, as long as the over-all spirit of the story is in tact for the film, I can cope with the changes. If I could make ONE change in the movie, it's that I wish Bob had scratched that BITCH of a step-mother of James right across her smarmy, stuck-up face!Some people had issues about the lack of GRIT in the movie, re: James' drug issues. Then again, this isn't meant to be TOO dark as other movies about a descension into drug abuse. James (Luke Treadaway) is finding his way OUT of that dark tunnel. While that wasn't easy, by any stretch, he did have help of a social worker (Joanne Froggart) who got James his council flat. Just having a roof over his head was enough of a boost. Then came Bob; the injured Ginger/ Tabby James helps get medical care for. If nothing else gave James the incentive to turn his life around, it was this lonely Tabby, who needed a friend as much as he wanted to be one.The payback James received for his sacrificial expenditure, on Bob's behalf, was the stuff of novel and film. Cheesy, I know, but I don't want to give anything else away. Enjoy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SIXTEEN CANDLES OR A STREET CAT NAMED BOB? A review for parents with a few spoilers...
*by A***I on February 1, 2017*

I love cats (all animals) and I have a young daughter who always wants to watch movies with me. I decided to watch this movie with her the other night because I wanted her to see something of consequence. Something with a valuable message. Something truly inspirational WITHOUT dopey sex starved teenagers, unnecessary explosions, gratuitous violence or space creatures wielding ridiculous looking weapons.This movie was a brilliant choice. THERE ARE SOME SPOILERS BELOW.A Street Cat Named Bob is a gorgeous and extraordinarily uplifting film that stresses how powerful and life-changing a relationship with an animal can be. The film does paint a realistic portrait of life on the streets and drug abuse, however there are no overly graphic scenes. There is a scene where one drug addict is found unconscious from an overdose and another scene where the main character is struggling to get through detox. The detox is not pleasant but the director handled it well and didn't film anything unnecessary. You can clearly see recovering from drug addiction is painful and arduous and that drugs are not 'cool' or desirable. The main character is a compassionate and altruistic man who reiterates many times how much he wants to "Stop using drugs and get his life back." This is not a movie lauding drunken and high teenagers. There is no nudity and there are no sex scenes. My daughter witnessed a man struggling to get off the streets and stay clean and she witnessed him do it with the help of a cat who loved, needed and adored him. The movie was absolutely beautiful and I am thrilled we watched it together. Also, the cat does not die. This is something I was quite concerned about since we are such fierce animal lovers and get very distressed if there are tragic scenes that involve animal violence or death. My daughter is especially sensitive and would never have been able to enjoy this movie if Bob was badly hurt or came to a tragic end. Thankfully James and Bob walk away unscathed We cried -- but they were tears of happiness and relief for this lovely man and his remarkable little companion.I would highly recommend this movie to all adults and children 12 and up.
