10 Upcoming Movies With TERRIBLE CGI

10. Argylle

Kingsman director Matthew Vaughn's new spy romp Argylle looks like a ton of fun, if you can forgive the absolute eyesore that is that digital feline.

The meta espionage caper sees spy novelist Elly Conway (Bryce Dallas Howard) dragged into a real spy plot along with her cat Alfie.

Though a real cat was used for some shots, the bulk of its appearances in the movie's trailer are of the digital variety, and hoo boy, they don't look good at all.

There's an overwhelming cartoonishness to the cat's digital likeness which evokes the vibe of a dozen terrible talking animal movies, culminating in that climactic trailer shot of the kitty being flung into the air towards the camera.

Now, nobody is going to lobby for a real cat being thrown around like that, but even movies released over a decade ago have pulled off more convincingly photoreal CGI animals than this.

That the cat's based on the real-life pet of Vaughn's wife, Claudia Schiffer, makes its lack of verisimilitude that much more peculiar.

For a film that clearly cost a pretty penny, it's bizarre that this single VFX element looks so rough.
