	Metaphilm - Josie and the Pussycats
		Josie is so bold as to state plainly that Fiona is not a lone madwoman but a mere agent of the U.S. government, which is the driving force behind her schemes.
		Josie recognizes this fact by presenting the business/media conspiracy as the work not simply of a cabal of sinister gray suits (as in the similar film Zoolander), but as a policy of the United States government to keep the economy going—and, by implication, to perpetuate the consumer culture that is accepted and expected by Americans.
		Josie and the Pussycats says to America and a world facing the triumph of consumer capitalism that the future depends on human wisdom, not on political or economic revolution.

	JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS
		The good news is that Josie and the Pussycats isn't nearly as bad as fellow comic-book-to-film duds Dudley Do-right or The Flintstones.
		Although Valerie wasn't in the original comic book Pussycat lineup, she was a trendsetter - a strong, smart fl character added to the white mix some 25 years before prime-time network shows started doing the same.
		Enter The Pussycats, a struggling band from Riverdale (it was Midvale in the comic, but who's counting) who perform to unenthusiastic bowlers at the local alley.

	Josie & The Pussycats
		Josie (Rachael Leigh Cook) is the lead singer and guitarist; Melody (Tara Reid) plays the drums and Valerie (Rosario Dawson) strums the bass guitar.
		Josie likes her newfound fame and success, but is even more suspicious than Valerie about why so many wonderful things are going well so quickly, after being totally ignored for so long.
		The best thing about Josie and the Pussycats is that it has the irony of satirizing advertising in the general society by using a movie jammed with product placements to make the point.

	Josie and the Pussycats - Don Markstein's Toonopedia
		In 1970, Hanna-Barbera did an animated version for CBS that tweaked the concept a little — Josie and her friends formed a rock'n'roll band and went on tour, having adventures and solving mysteries wherever they stopped.
		Josie and the Pussycats ran two seasons on CBS, then was tweaked again.
		Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space was basically the same show, but with a slight change of venue.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| "Josie and the Pussycats"
		"Josie and the Pussycats," a live-action riff on the "Archie"-spinoff comic book and TV show, manages to straddle the middle, like a rock chick who has just gotten her first guitar and hasn't yet figured out the natural way to stand.
		"Josie and the Pussycats" has a magnificent opening: A gaggle of screaming preteen girls has shown up at the airport to greet their idols, a white-boy singing sensation deliciously named DuJour, who proceed to lip-sync their way through their No. 1 hit (the intriguingly named "Backdoor Lover") right there on the tarmac.
		The frustrating thing about "Josie and the Pussycats" is that even though the girls finally realize they don't want to be pawns in the big-business music game, they never return to their garage roots, and that was the time they looked their best, in their ripped T-shirts, chain belts and messy mascara.

	The Mediadrome - Film - Reviews
		Josie and the Pussycats are finally ready for their close-up, but the big question is, what the heck took so long?
		That changes when they come across Wyatt (Alan Cumming), a sleazy music producer who is looking for "the next big thing." He signs the Pussycats to his record label, and instead of clawing their way to the top, they literally become an overnight sensation.
		That success creates some competitive tension within the band, but even worse, the Pussycats don't realize that Wyatt is tampering with their music to corrupt the kids of America.

	SPLICEDwire \| "Josie & the Pussycats" review (2001)
		Now they apply their uncreative methods to spin a hackneyed yarn about a struggling suburban band of alt-pop hotties who are "discovered" by Wyatt Frame (soon after parachuting out of Dejour's doomed jet) and put on the very, very fast track to be the latest musical flash in the pan.
		The one-dimensional stock character bandmates that make up Josie and the Pussycats are played by Rachel Leigh Cook (Josie, no personality) Tara Reid (Melody, the ditzy airhead distracted by anything shiny) and Rosario Dawson (Val, the loyal and dubious one).
		But their scoffing has no teeth since it's readily apparent that the product placement in "Josie" is genuinely meant to sell the brand names slapped all over every scene in the picture.

	Review: Josie and the Pussycats
		This time, the victim is "Josie and the Pussycats", whose characters began life in the pages of the "Archie" comic book before being given their own short-lived animated TV show three decades ago (it lasted only 16 episodes).
		Magoo prevents Josie and the Pussycats from claiming the dubious title of worst cartoon TV-to-live-action film translation of all time (and there are plenty of competitors, with more - such as Scooby Doo - to come).
		Josie and the Pussycats reminded me strongly of Spice World, but without the British accents and all the cameos to hold one's flagging interest (Alan Cumming has the dubious distinction of appearing in both pictures).

	'Josie and the Pussycats'
		Josie and the Pussycats are overnight sensations, one-hit wonders foisted on an unsuspecting public by a vast behind-the-scenes conspiracy of vested interests out to brainwash the youth of America into living life as mindless drones and, by association, good consumers.
		Together as the Pussycats, they've got a youthful energy that's perfect for the fuel-injected power-pop that is their stock in trade.
		There's plenty here for kids to love, from glamour shots of Josie and her Pussycats to celebrity cameos of Daly and the like to dirty jokes to a sweet and believable romance that blossoms between our hero, Josie, and the hometown boy she's always wanted.

	JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS - WIDESCREEN DVD
		Josie and the Pussycats' formulaic narrative settles on a girl group's internal rivalry that a scheming handler (Alan Cumming) puppeteers (for no good reason, when one stops to think about it), though keen, enthusiastic performances paint over lapses in ingenuity.
		The ideologically contradictory Josie and the Pussycats is based on an animated TV series and periodical from the hypocritical Archie Comics empire.
		Josie and the Pussycats sorely misses a department store autograph session in which a bystander uses a Valerie doll to kill a spider that's trespassing on Josie's space.

	JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS (2001): ChildCare Action Project (CAP) Media Analysis Report MAR21029
		Josie and the Pussycats is another movie which uses the apparently new technique of stuffing movies full of "lesser" issues of impropriety to get the same "fix" or "rush" of filth as in R-rated films but garnering a lesser rating.
		Josie McCoy (Rachel Leigh Cook), Melody Valentine (Tara Reid) and Valerie Brown (Rosario Dawson) are the Pussycats.
		But Josie, being the "brains" of the outfit figured out that the Fiona-Frame pair had been conditioning her with subliminal messaging under the CDs of her music she was forced to listen to for the trumped up purpose of evaluating them before release.

	Josie and the Pussycats
		"Josie and the Pussycats"' star Rachel Leigh Cook admits she was a fan of the comics on which the film is based.
		Josie is in love with mellow songwriter Alan M. (Gabriel Mann) who seems to think of her as buddy material and although snobby girls tease the trio, they valiantly wail on.
		On the whole, however, "Josie" is a cute, melodic adventure that should appeal to any of us who ever wanted to be "On the cover of the Rolling Stone".

	Josie and the Pussycats TV Show - Josie and the Pussycats Television Show - TV.com
		Josie and the Pussycats followed the adventures of an all-girl rock and roll group as they travelled the world playing gigs and along the way thwarted the weird diabolical plots of several megalomaniacs looking to rule the world.
		Singer/guitarist Josie was the level-headed leader, drummer Melody added zaniness with her half-witted remarks and effervescent charm, and tambourinist Valerie was the brains of the group, typically saving the day with her intellect and mechanical know-how.
		The Pussycats are invited by a Countess to perform for her on her island estate, only to learn that they're going to be the test subjects for her creation--a mist that can make them very old!

	Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space
		The band was called Josie and the Pussycats, as was the show, and it premiered on CBS on 9 September 1970.
		Josie was voiced by Janet Waldo for the speaking parts and Cathy Douglas for the singing.
		Alexandra is there mostly to drive the plots, such as they are, as both she and Josie have eyes for the hunky Alan M (who’s last name was later revealed by Archie Comics to be “Mayberry”) and it’s her scheming to get him away from Josie that usually gets them into trouble.

		Unbeknownst to the Pussycats, subliminal messages in their chart-topping hit "Pretend to Be Nice" are forcing kids to follow the latest prefab trends as if their lives depended on it.
		Josie's going to be the Next Big Thing, and to her manager (Alan Cumming) and Megarecords mogul Fiona (Parker Posey), the other Pussycats are expendable baggage in their scheme to dictate the cool quotient of teenagers everywhere.

	Josie and the Pussycats mistakes, goofs and bloopers
		Continuity: At the concert, when Alan M yells at Josie, she steps away from the mike, and yet she is still amplified.
		Continuity: In the scene where Josie is fixing Alan M's truck, she puts her hand on the side of the truck and knocks over the wrench.
		Continuity: At Fiona's party, after Fiona performs, from the front there is a shot of Josie and she is clapping and her arms are up; then there is a shot from behind and her arms are down.

		The Pussycats of now are a garage band with a fun line in grungy agit-pop, stuck playing gigs to those who couldn’t care less at the Riverdale Pin Palace.
		Josie and the Pussycats is one heck of a workout for any system, and the 5.1 mix on this disc (sorry, there's no 3DX Surround Sound as featured in the film) manages to do it the justice it deserves.
		The soundtrack consists mainly of songs by Josie and the Pussycats, all in a catchy girlie pop/rock sort of Veruca Salt meets No Doubt meets Elastica via The Go-Gos' kind of style, which in actuality were performed by a bunch of session musos.

	LA BUTACA - Josie y las Melódicas (Josie and the Pussycats)
		Supongo que hubiera sido muy fácil hacer una película que siguiera de cerca la caricatura original de "Josie and the Pussycats", mostrando un grupo de rock y las peripecias para llegar a la fama.
		Pero aunque su intención de denunciar y satirizar sea honorable, como comedia "Josie and the Pussycats" dista mucho de ser perfecta.
		"Josie and the Pussycats" es, finalmente, una comedia algo inestable, muy divertida e incisiva en algunas ocasiones, pero demasiado estridente y evidente en otras.

	Josie and the Pussycats DVD review on AudioRevolution.com
		Josie is kind of sweet on local acoustic-guitar singer Alan M (Gabriel Mann), but he regards her as just a friend (leading Josie to sigh a lot and work furiously on car engines).
		Josie is as true-blue as they come, but the renaming of the band gives Valerie pause to wonder if Josie might be getting a swelled head.
		Cook is spunky and cute as Josie; there's not much depth to the character, nor should there be, but Cook keeps her likable, specific and charming.
