This is a truly inspiring and engaging movie especially regarding the interaction between Luke Treadaway as James Bowen and Bob the ginger cat - Luke is a natural in his dealings with Bob and there is an obvious affection on both sides, coupled with a healthy respect. I have owned, or been owned perhaps, by a ginger cat called Pancho, who was very similar to Bob in that he would follow me on my walks too and reminded me in so many ways of Bob. Bob is a very unique cat that is obvious, and his devotion to Luke aka James shines through in each scene. James Bowen's struggle with his drug addiction and the fact that he overcame his addiction should be a lesson in courage and determination to more fortunate people, who may have judged him as someone of not much value because of his addiction. I congratulate James Bowen and salute him as a worthwhile and caring human being. I recommend this movie to any one for its honesty and candid treatment of a sad fact of life in this modern society, both from the story line and the portrayal by all the characters.Read full review

I had been wanting to watch this movie for ages, so when I was browsing other listings of DVDs & spotted it, I snapped it up immediately & I thoroughly enjoyed watching this film because I'd seen something on TV about this young man's story. What a Beautiful story of a human's life being changed for the better, due in a BIG way to this ginger cat entering his world & becoming his constant companion & friend. I would recommend this to anyone who's a cat lover for starters! I think this movie gives HOPE to all who see it.

If you buy this DVD, you'll watch it over and over again. It is based on the novel that sold millions of copies. Not just for cat lovers. Hope is the theme of this contemporary story set in London.

Having read the book I wasn't sure how it would translate to film. A good real story - if you're a cat lover like me, you will love the message of the importance of feline friendship. Bob plays himself, what a cool cat .

It was good & very true to life, Bob makes the story, BUT it misses quite a lot of the story that was in the book, which was made it more interesting..
