Once upon a time, a bright star fell to earth with a last wish.
Becoming a legend, the Puss in Boots has a blast with the locals. On the eve of saving the town, he loses his penultimate life. He teams up with his lost love, Kisa, and a strange dog to find the star of his last wish.
Actors: Terrified for Antonio. Hotly anticipated Cat in Boots, played by him. After 11 years (I can’t believe it) he’s back! His character realizes the value of every moment until it’s too late. One thing that was disconcerting about the image of the cat was the huge hat that grew with his hubris.
Hayek and Banderas’ duet is reminiscent of ‘Desperate’ in which the lovebirds were also preparing for an important event. Loneliness is what one of the characters is used to. We are revealed in parts the reason why Kisa and Cat parted ways after the first part, but they get a chance to look at the world through different eyes. Literally, Cat’s fascination reaches a peak. But Puss got a beard, so it’s triple hilarious! Glad to see Salma Hayek returning to her role as the adorable Softypants.
Death herself deserves special attention as well, presented in wolfish guise, following on her heels.
Everything else: The spin-off sequel was better than the first. While there was little magic in the first part (even from the magic beans), in the second, the creators make full use of it. It’s a shame, of course, that the sequel made it 11 years later. Antonio Banderas survived the attack, and Salma Hayek (it seems) weaned off the image of Pussycat – both still returned to the beloved cartoon. What’s more, Puss – in the new storyline – is on the brink of life and death when he has to choose which side he’s on. He has a tough choice to make. Escape and live happily ever after, as if nothing had happened. The main thing is not to let his new friends. Among them is a new and amusing dog. The hero Harvey Guillen doesn’t give a damn. He is a naive and simple-minded psychologist dog.
I don’t want to skimp on the Easter eggs, which fit in very nicely with Cat’s story. The prequel Cat in Boots was a nifty prequel and spin-off. It’s already a sequel that flows seamlessly into the Shrek universe.
Kudos to the creators for bringing back the Cat saying ‘Oh! Let the hero appear briefly. Now it’s clear where he ran off to after the cat bar Glitter box.
Deserved the attention of the antagonists. The heart rejoices at the appearance of Goldilocks and the three bears (the girl and Baby are clearly not on good terms). The day the lonely orphan girl invaded their home, the world around the bears began to feel right.
Only the chubby hero Jack Horner (I can’t recall which fairy tale) doesn’t stand out as anything special. Every fairy tale should have a ruthless villain. Here he comes off as faceless and unconscionable.
Speaking of conscience, if Pinocchio was shown in the flashback, it would have been more logical to show the identical image of Jimminy the cricket from the short film ‘Shrek’s Halloween’. The artists drew the cricket to look like a frog.
Many of the characters regret the missed opportunities. The cat (with nine lives) should have valued friendship and self-sacrifice, for the sake of those he loves. For Goldilocks, it is finding happiness, though she forgets it is near.
Liked the musical theme, which vividly reflects the adventures of the Cat.
Enjoyed the drawing. Not without the animation that the new creators have applied (graphics reminiscent of ‘Spider-Man: Through the universes’).
Impressions: Appreciate your own life, fight for it. We have only one. There won’t be another.
