While not being the best film DreamWorks Animation has ever made, Puss in Boots is a good, warm-hearted animated feature that will easily entertain family audiences. This movie is a spin off film about one of the supporting characters in the final three Shrek movies, Puss in Boots. This film lacks the heart and bigness of those films, but still manages to get me entertained and I'm always happy to see any characters from the Shrek films.
Chris Miller's film is about the lovely cat, Puss in Boots. In this storyline, which is not devoid of fairy-tale references, Puss joins up with Humpty-Dumpty and Kitty Soft-Paws to go after the evil Jack and Jill who are on the quest for magical beans.
The voice acting is solid. Antonio Banderas is the only one who can play Puss in Boots. Salma Hayek, Zack Galifinakis, and Billy Bob Thornton are all nice additions to the cast and they voice their characters well.
Overall, this is a good animated feature which is bound to receive much love from the younger children. Anyone else, especially those who are Shrek fans, should find this film pretty enjoyable. There's nothing new that was brought to the table, but it has enough wit and charm to make it an entertaining night out at the movies. I rate this film 8/10.
