THE NINE LIVES OF FRITZ THE CAT Directed by Robert Taylor (American International) My friend Marya has a cat named Irwin who spends most of his spare time masturbating in the hallway. Fritz and his offspring do much of the same thing, except they do it on the movie screen.

S*P*Y*S:: There's not too much that's funny about the CIA, which may be why S*P*Y*S is not the funniest movie of the year. However, the further adventures of Earnest & Seymour might just make another excellent time slot for some lucky television network. The timely team of Elliot Gould & Donald Sutherland encounters yet another phase of warped reality as it finds itself poised somewhere between the CIA, which is out to get them, and the wacky world of three French anarchists. Although a bit predictable, Sutherland and Gould carry off an otherwise weak script with their usual aplomb.
