Puss in Boots (2011)


"Puss in Boots" is a spin-off starring the cat character voiced by Antonio Banderas in the Shrek series.  If you are a cat person, you will enjoy a lot of the jokes.  If you a are a dog person, you probably won't watch the film.  The story follows Puss as he tries to steal magic beans from the legendary Jack and the Beanstalk and Golden Goose tales.  Overall, the storyline was interesting, but the film got slow during a long flashback scene involving Humpty Dumpty, Puss's childhood friend from his troubled past.  The female cat character voiced by Salma Hayek added a little romantic interest to the tale.  The film was very funny at times when it had cat jokes, was pretty entertaining, but could be slow.
The film gets 3 out of 5 stars.  It was fun to watch, but probably not necessary to see in 3D.
