This is a low budget Lifetime film based on the internet meme of the Grumpy cat stretched out to full length film with product placements and the like, some wisecracks and a plot that rips off Paul Blart:Mall Cop.An introverted 12 year old girl, Chrystal can understand the sarcastic thoughts of Grumpy Cat, a cat in a pet store in a mall that is constantly returned by its new owners because of her sour looks.Grumpy and Chrystal thwart the kidnapping of a valuable dog from bumbling thieves but there is a mastermind who is now after them.There are a few Home Alone type shenanigans, some off beat humour which the kids will enjoy but you get the feeling it is a mediocre movie to promote Grumpy Cat merchandise who I felt was awfully voiced.

I didn't actually expect to enjoy this movie, but it was quite good. The story line, while at times jumbled, never felt strained because of Grumpy Cat's ability to joke around and make us laugh through the rough parts. The acting was superb, with the voice of Grumpy Cat doing a fantastic job of portraying the supposedly annoyed, annoying, and sarcastic cat on the planet. This is a wonderful family Christmas movie for anyone who loves cats, cats driving things, cats using paint ball guns, or just family and friend comedies. What are you waiting for? Go watch Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever and be ready for the grumpiest and most annoying cat tell you a heartwarming story.

-Grumpy Cat has his own (Lifetime) movie and pairs up with a little girl to save a store in the mall from being robbed and, along the way, learn values of having friends. -I'll be honest, for a Lifetime movie I actually didn't hate it. Yup.-I really could not care for the story they borrowed from Mall Cop. It's just silly.-The pace is not bad, but it does have some problems staying on track with some really irrelevant scene.-I'll go ahead and point out the best thing about it: Throughout the entire film, Grumpy Cat, still in character, talks about how horrible the film is. This includes cheesy product placements, meme references, other film references, breaking the fourth wall a lot, and slamming Lifetime movies hard. Well played Grumpy Cat. Well played
.-The acting is on-par with a Lifetime movie. Cheesy and over-the-top. The voice of Grumpy cat is annoying, but pretty fitting actually.-The music is like the worst Christmas music ever. Grumpy Cat pointed it out.-The moral lesson in it also doesn't really add up. But Grumpy Cat pointed that out to.-It is rated-G and has some jokes that should really make it PG.-So as a film it's not that good, but it points out all of its own flaws in a funny way. Still not great though. I would probably give it a very high 6.5, and if you are interested it's not a bad watch on Netflix/Redbox. But if you are like 'meh' like most people will be, Grumpy Cat's Worth Christmas Ever is not really worth watching.

I'm the grumpy sort when it comes to Lifetime holiday movies (and those of competing channels), so I was pleasantly surprised to find that this was the first Lifetime movie that I could actually stand to watch. Figuring it was just another sellout move by the cat's owners, I was ready to discard it, but after seeing that it's not the *worst*- rated movie on IMDb, I decided to see if it was worth the fuss. It's not bad. Well, it *is* bad, but you're warned from the start that it's all contrived to begin with. The movie pokes gentle fun at itself and Lifetime-type movies throughout, and did have a few moments that made me smile. I'd say it's worth watching, or streaming, if you can find it. I probably wouldn't watch it more than once, but it means that I have actually watched more than zero Lifetime movies without groaning or rolling my eyes out of my sockets. Good job, guys.
