The script is stupid and debasing, subjecting the tycoon to numerous cat-piss and emasculation jokes after he turns into "Mister Fuzzypants."

Leah Pickett, Chicago Reader
Rotten

It's not that Nine Lives is terrible. It's just that it's not terrible enough.

A Frankenstein's monster of Hollywood's worst instincts, a movie made with a math formula where its vision should have been. The fact of the matter is that you're going to need nine wines to endure "Nine Lives."

Katie Walsh, Los Angeles Times

The cast member you really feel bad for is the cat.

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Rotten

Family audiences should not be fooled. This witless talking cat movie needs to go out with the kitty litter.

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
