If it was made on a bigger budget and with more scenes (minus all that Thai stuff), it would have been better. I can imagine how awesome this movie would have been had it been directed by Wong Jing. The impetus behind making Catman was due to the success of the 1989 Batman film. Even Jing made a movie that somewhat capitalized on the success of Batman - Pantyhose Hero. It's about a geeky martial artist serial killer who is obsessed with Batman. It's a shame Pantyhose Hero never had a girls-with-guns sequel entitled Pantyhose Heroine. We could have seen Yukari Oshima and Moon Lee play cops who have to pretend to be a couple (Yukari being the butch and Moon being the bitch), complete with a showdown pitting the two of them against Karen Shepherd and Sophia Crawford. I think Jing could have capitalized on the success of Batman Returns by filming a sequel where there's a serial killer who's obsessed with Catwoman. Anyway, here's an interview with Jonathan Isgar: http://www.hkcinemagic.com/en/page.asp?aid=321&page=9 This film is hilarious.
