Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains some spoilers for this film!
Synopsis: A womanizer named Damien (Vincent Elbaz) hits his head and wakes up in a world where gender roles have been switched.
Featured Feline: Damien owns a gray and white cat named Rocco who greets him when he comes home after first hitting his head.
Rocco joins Damien on the couch as Damien holds a package of peas on his sore head and brushes his teeth (something he is obsessed with).
Rocco also sleeps on Damien’s bed.
Rocco is there to join Damien again on the couch after the man tries to purposefully hit his head to reverse the strange world he’s in.
In one scene, Damien makes love with a woman but because the roles are reversed she comes sooner and then falls asleep, leaving him unsatisfied. In revenge he grabs Rocco and throws him at her.
In one cute scene Damien is looking at himself in the mirror. He asks Rocco what he thinks and on cue the cat meows. Damien agrees and removes the butt enhancers he is wearing.
Rocco is only seen a few times after this, such as when Damien is watching television with his parents and then in two more relaxed moments.
Final Mewsings: Don’t use your cat to get back at your bed partner!
