This movie is about what happens when a four dimensioned reality (our world) interacts with a five dimensioned reality (The Cat's world). It is the same interaction we have with, for example, comic books.
I thought the meanig was "Never allow a six-foot cat with a retarded looking hat come in your house without blowing off his head with a machine gun"....
The true meaning of the movie is "Learn to stay away from Mike Myers' 90-minute product placements". Sheesh--- why does that creep think he can get paid by the marketing jerks, and then charge us to watch his commercials ?
I was deeply insulted-- especially when he stopped the movie action to 1) plug the soundtrack album, and 2) stopped the action to push a frikkin' theme park.
I will not recommend nor attend another Mike Myers film until this creep learns that abusing an audience's patience with blatant product plugs is downright rude.
Also on the Mike Myers "Blatant Product Plug" hate list: Shrek II and all Austin Powers films. Other films on the "blatant product plug" hate list: Blade III, I Robot.
The meaning of this movie?? are you guys kidding.. this movie's extremely obvious meaning is: "Blow up Dr. Seuss' kiddy little rhymes in a 90-minute budgetfest and exemplify why Hollywood always sets its ass on every good source"
