Chris Miller’s Puss in Boots is a wholesome pack for funny moments to cherish reminding the old rhyme character humpty dumpty and also bringing back the best character missed from Shrek. Always when Dream works bring a movie on to the big screen it is the time to celebrate. Puss in boots delivers the goods.

Let me start off this review by pointing out two very important background notes: First, although I enjoyed the Shrek franchise in general ---and more particularly the first film, since the sequels seemed to lose their charm, as sequels almost always tend to do---one of my least favorite characters in the mix was Puss in Boots. Dress him in any costume you’d like, Antonio Banderas is pretty unlikely to sweep me off my feet. And second, I am, in no uncertain terms, NOT a fan of cats in general. The ones in my neighborhood clearly have an unwritten understanding that my landscaping is the perfect community liter box, and don’t get me started on how aloof they are—give me a slobbering, eager to please dog any day over a cat. How’s that for endearing myself to the cat lover’s …
