Puss in Boots

I'm not sure who thought of the idea of taking a character from Shrek and making a movie around him. The guy (or gal) deserves a medal. You would figure if you're taking a character out of Shrek that the movie would be something akin to Shrek or Shrek Junior. Nope. Puss in Boots is what happens when you take multiple fairytales and jumble them all up together. You have Humpty Dumpty, the goose that laid the golden egg, Jack and Jill and Mother Goose. They're probably a few others that I missed. The story is pretty good. There is actually a plot. Animation is outstanding. I'm sorry, I did not see it in 3-D so I can't talk about the use of 3-D. I can say that this is an extremely enjoyable movie which can entertain the very young (I took my eight-year-old grandson), pre-teenagers and adults alike (teenagers are hard to please, enough said). This movie is well worth the money (if you don't buy popcorn and a drink). I give the movie a solid B. (Oh, watch for the Jedi mind trick. It is hilarious.)

Nice review Erri!  I took Ava, who is four.  She was thoroughly impressed.  I kind of had been hoping for more, but I agree- A solid B is fair review.  

Thanks, I'm glad I wasn't too far off. It was nice and enjoyable. Not great. I thought the flashback was way too long.  thanks again.
