Flipping through DC's anthology, Catwoman: Nine Lives of a Feline Fatale, you can tell what's wrong about the new Catwoman movie without even seeing it: The slinky, sexy, morally ambiguous character is at her best when playing off nemesis/love interest Batman, but the caped crusader is nowhere in the film. The book is helpful to chart the evolution of the classic comics character, but most of the stories are valuable more for historical reference than actual entertainment.
