Movies that feel like Catwoman (2004)

If you loved Catwoman, the closest films we have are Batman Forever (1995), Batman (1989) and Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008). All three share Catwoman's kinetic and dreamlike feel, which is what we rank on before quality. 10 of the 12 picks below are included with a subscription right now on Netflix, HBO Max and Amazon Prime Video and others, checked against today's data.

Liquidated after discovering a corporate conspiracy, mild-mannered graphic artist Patience Phillips washes up on an island, where she's resurrected and endowed with the prowess of a cat — and she's eager to use her new skills... as a vigilante. Before you can say "cat and mouse", handsome gumshoe Tom Lone is on her tail, fascinated by both of her personas.
