Puss n' Boots. Nuff Said.

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2004)

I love the fact that the people who made this movie were clearly in love with it and it's characters, that the same divine spark that created the first one seems to be behind the second one but, as I was sitting there in the theater watching the movie, I kept feeling like there was no movie. That is... until Puss n' Boots comes on screen and injects life into things. Antonio Banderas is hilarious as the Fairy Tale feline, but of course his performance wouldn't have been nearly as fantastic without the animators behind him. Every time Puss was on the screen I was laughing. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie just didn't do it for me. I just couldn't find the movie when Puss wasn't on screen. I couldn't care about Shrek or Fiona this time, a lot of the jokes seemed tacked on. Like in the second and third Austin Powers' film's. Jennifer Saunders as the Fairy godmother also failed to get me going. but man when that cat is licking itself... hoo weee... I was laughing.
