My review for this Tuesday’s issue

Hathaway nailed quite a few things about modern Catwoman that had been sorely lacking from Pfeiffer’s take on the character - she was actually a genuine thief, she had the flirtatiously self-serving aspect down, the quiet and hidden righteous streak, and could be the “downtown girl in uptown girl clothing.”
Really, my only problem was with her costume. Considering they allowed her to express a restrained degree of fangirl-ism for Batman, it would have worked to give her a cowl and explain it away as a personal affectation.
Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?
I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP
I felt like she was play-acting. She is not sexy and she was trying really hard to pretend to be. It felt like she was posing and preening. Fake and forced.
