'Puss In Boots' Is The Cat's Meow
The swashbuckling cat from the "Shrek" movies brings his suave swagger to a 3-D animated film.
This Shrek spinoff Puss in Boots is a prequel that tells the story of the adventurous kitty voiced with great charisma by Antonio Banderas.
Our favorite cat teams up with the lively Kitty Softpaws (Salma Hayek) on a dangerous search for Jack and Jill's "magic beans."
They get help from Humpty Dumpty (Zach Galifianakis) as they climb the beanstalk to a castle in the clouds to nab the golden goose to repay debts back home.

The movie is lively, colorful and family-friendly. The 3-D is not bad, but I don't like wearing those glasses.
Don't expect this fairy tale to play out the way you remember it from childhood, especially with a Zorro-like cat as the lead.

Puss in Boots was one of the best parts of the Shrek movies, but a little of him goes a long way. The feline has some trouble maintaining his shtick for 90 minutes, so the flick-o-meter gives the film four out of five.
