Pros good animation and I love cats and the cons plot is poor and charcthers aren't memorable

Rating: 6/10 (25 June 2013)

I seen this two years ago in the cinemas with my mom and my little brother. It was my 2nd movie to see that year in 2011 my first was to see Tangled which was brilliant. Puss in Boots is a spin off from the Shrek Franchise that we grew to love and to cherish when it first came out back in 2001 and finished in 2010. So when I found out that the cat from Shrek 2 got his own spin-off I was excited because I loved Antonio Banderas performance in that movie so was this movie worth every penny and the long anticipated wait??...........well let's find out.
Puss is an outlaw who was best friends with Humpedity Dumpy(voiced by Zach Galifankis from The Hangover you know the big built guy with the dark beard and the curly hair looks like he could be related to John Goodman yeah him)who he betrayals years ago as Dumpy stole money from the bank but before that Puss explains his background and judging by him his a very smooth talking charming charismatic cat who's a bit of a heartthrob except his a cat that looks like Zorro(yeah I spotted the Zorro homage as Antonio Banderas played him in 1997 with Catherine Zeta Jones). Meanwhile another cat thief named Kitty Soft paws(voiced by Salma Hayek)is out to steal the magic beans(that are belonging to Jack and Jill voiced by Billy Bob Thornton and Amy Seadris) and to find the golden eggs belonging to the golden goose and Puss lost to her but he decides to team up with her and finds out that his former buddy(who I mentioned before) go off in search of the golden eggs.
So after this set up you think that this is the best movie of all time and is in my top 5 or 10 right?? well there are some problems with this movie.
#1 Is the story yes I know I loved Puss in the sequel to Shrek back in 2004 and I'm a lover for cats but is it just me or did the story drag on and on and on to any of you people.
#2 The charcthers were good but not as memorable as they were in Shrek or the brilliant 2010 Dream works flick How To Train Your Dragon.They were all boring and dull and if I had to pick a favorite I would go with Puss and Kitty. Humpedity wasn't my cup of tea,he was So annoying and so irritating I didn't like him AT ALL.
#3 The pacing was so quick and it didn't give me a chance to look at the scenes right. Yeah like in Tangled was the same but still that was A lot more memorable than this film.
Overall did I like Puss in Boots sure it was a good flick but to be honest i'd rather watch some other cartoon than this. Like its nothing to write home about.
SO overall I'm giving it a 6 out of 10
A 3 out of 5 stars for me.
