Treadaway may be sympathetic and charming as the struggling musician, but this is Bob's show, all the way.

Screen Zealots
This dramatization... plays like a Hallmark Hall of Fame TV movie, touching lightly on serious social issues before turning into a Cinderella story.

Rating: 1/5 --
Nothing other than a 'woe is me' tale of a drug addict who happened to be offered a second chance - with a few cat puns thrown in.

One Room With A View
Rating: 3/5 --
A warm if formulaic film. Treadaway offers a measured and thoughtful performance opposite Bob in a role that was probably trickier than it looks. How do you act with a cat? Is it like green screen work where you give your all to an emotional vacuum?

Caution Spoilers
Rating: 3/5 --
Yes, the picture is too cute for its own good - who thought shooting some scenes from the cat's point of view was a good idea? - and the dialogue is not up to much, but its heart is in the right place and it doesn't shy away from tougher subject matter.

The Herald (Scotland)
Rating: 5/5 --
The film is as incredible as the real-life journey that inspired it. Spottiswoode manages to balance the right amount of grit and saccharine.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Based on the International Best Selling Book, A STREET CAT NAMED BOB is a moving and uplifting feel-good true story. When James Bowen found an injured, ginger street cat curled up in the hallway of his sheltered accommodation, he had no idea just how much his life was about to change. James was living hand to mouth on the streets of London and the last thing he needed was a pet. Yet James couldn't resist helping the strikingly intelligent tom cat, whom he quickly christened Bob. He slowly nursed Bob back to health and then sent the cat on his way, imagining he would never see him again. But Bob had other ideas. Soon the two were inseparable and their diverse, comic and occasionally dangerous adventures would transform both their lives, slowly healing the scars of each other's troubled pasts.
