Nine Lives

[projekktor id=’24974′]

Nine Lives is a family friendly comedy directed by Barry Sonnenfeld (the Men in Black series, The Addams Family). The film stars Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Garner, Robbie Amell, Cheryl Hines, Mark Consuelos, Malina Weissman, and Christopher Walken.

Tom Brand (Kevin Spacey) is undeniably successful, impossibly wealthy, and an unapologetic jerk. Tom’s workaholic lifestyle has alienated his long-suffering family, including his devoted wife Lara (Jennifer Garner), neglected adult son David (Robbie Amell) and starved-for-attention young daughter Rebecca (Malina Weissman). When Rebecca’s 11th birthday arrives, the girl begs her father for the same present she asks for every year: a cat. After suffering a fateful accident on the way to Rebecca’s birthday party, a horrified Tom discovers that while his human form is lying comatose in a hospital bed, he is watching events unfold from inside the body of the cat. Trapped inside Mr. Fuzzypants and trying desperately to make his loved ones aware of his situation, he soon realizes that if he is ever to earn back his human existence, he must reconnect with his family and become the husband and father they deserve.

“For me, this is a great opportunity because I love doing comedy,” says two-time Oscar winner Spacey. “People often think of me in a darker, more evil kind of part. But it’s a great joy for me to be able to come to work every day and do something that’s really funny, really fast and very clever.”

Nine Lives is rated PG.
