Words cannot describe the delight of Puss In Boots, the new Shrek hero given life by Antonio Banderas (in arguably his best role). The Dreamworks animators obviously not only love cats but have a sharp eye for every mood a cat possesses. Puss In Boots is mawkishly lovable, rapacious, aloof, demur, militant, curious, and above all arrogant, sometimes in the same scene. Every frame of the movie with Puss In Boots gives one the pure delight that the very best animated cartoons give, and without his addition this decent sequel to the wonderful “Shrek” would have been decidedly dull. Puss In Boots is unquestionably the finest animated cat ever put on celluloid. Dreamworks deserves a special Oscar for its fantastic feline alone. |
