Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

Absolutely Nuts. Peak Animated Movie. Deserving of the Oscar

An amazing sequel that gives me hope for more frequent visits to the theatre in 2023 if more movies like this come out! My parents loved the humor and action in this movie, too!

Puss in Boots isn’t on a rousing adventure; he’s performing the fairy-tale equivalent of grasping at miracle cures while he’s dying from a terminal illness. And although the film is funny in fits and starts, and exciting in fits and starts, the ultimate takeaway is weirdly sobering.

Darker in tone but still extremely funny, the film, like so many of its animated brethren, falters when resorting to the frenetic action sequences seemingly designed for tykes’ short attention spans.

“The Last Wish” has no qualms about testing the expectations of its young audience while delivering a freewheeling tale about appreciating the nine lives we already have.
