If we’re being honest, we can probably count on one hand the number of viewers who went to see Tom Hooper’s ill-advised movie version of Cats for the music. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s music has never really been the appeal of Cats it’s always been the visuals and the brand more than anything that allowed it to become an iconic piece of theatre pop culture. As you probably expect, the soundtrack for the movie does very little new, but dutifully recreates the score with a talented all-star cast.
