Purely Joyful Movie!

A Brilliant Conflict

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

I would give this movie a 10 of 10 if it were not for William Shatners horrible impression of a cat voice. Redub this movie and make millions, its that simple! Wake up Hollywood. The story line was great and in many ways more watchable than than the Jack black version. All the voices were overshadowed by Shatners cat impression, unless Shatner paid for the movie himself he never should have been a voice over character. Maybe he was chosen as a popular figure to sell the movie? If so Shatner should have been kind enough to pick someone who could have better performed the cat voice. Thats all I have to say so I will say it again.I would give this movie a 10 of 10 if it were not for William Shatners horrible impression of a cat voice.

To the other reviewer, Really.... You thought this was the new movie? Come on.. Try READING next time you buy a movie.. This came out in 2009.. I liked it just fine and my 2 year old loves it. The colors are really fun and bright! Also, the movie comes from France. People should remember that we Americans tend to forget that a lot of our movie ideas come from all over the world. So the idea for the new Puss in boots film could very well have been sparked by this one. You never know! At any rate it's very cute and whimsical and if you don't watch it thinking you are getting the new movie you just might like it!

WARNING: This is not the real Puss n Boots. Admittedly, that seems like an obvious statement, but for this reviewer (and the unfortunate souls that watched it with her) it was not immediately apparent. We made our way to the local Redbox to grab a movie we thought everyone would like. Then we spotted Puss n Boots. Perfect! The reviews had been surprisingly positive and we thought it looked fun. So we went home, popped in the movie, and settled in for some animated entertainment. After bizarre previews and a random introduction by William Shatner, we got to the actual film. Strange, but okay. Then it started. The first thing we noticed was the terrible graphics. I said they looked like something from a Nickelodeon children's show; my brother said he had seen better quality on his video games. The characters were horrendous, the dubbing was a failure ... It wasn't until Puss showed up in pink boots that we finally realized something was terribly wrong. Turns out, we rented the wrong movie. Cleverly disguised as the Antonio Banderas version was truly awful thing that's not worthy of being called a film. It's poop on a reel. And you'd need a magnifying glass to read Redbox's fine print. Renter beware.

Claims that this is trying to cash in on the Shrek movie may be true, we thought that was what we were renting. Still, when we realized, we were not disappointed and were willing to give it a try...Only to be severely disappointed. The story is not compelling, the characters are unsympathetic and ugly in both visage and voice. The animation is weak and odd (and not in the cool good way). We waited for it to get better but it just trundled along in mediocrity. I fell asleep somewhere a little after halfway despite giving it my best. The survivors reported it was as bad through to the end.I was intrigued to find out it is from France as it did have that vibe that used to come from several foreign-produced cartoons when I was younger (Dogtanion, around the world in 80 days etc). I think it's the way they try and cram the English language into French-animated mouths. Indeed, this may have succeeded more as a traditional cartoon, possibly a series.To sum up, not worth watching. Go track down the Christopher Walken live-action version. I stumbled on it by accident one day and ended up watching it all the way through, spellbound.
