Puss In Boots

"An epic quest that somehow manages to thrill without ever taking itself seriously, at least for the first hour or so."

"With his impeccable comic timing and lyrical Spanish accent, Banderas' swashbuckling charmer is an undeniable treat."

"Director Chris Miller goes some way to atone for franchise low-point Shrek The Third. Still, the use of 3D is the only game-raising."

"A cheerfully chaotic jumble of fairy tale and nursery rhyme characters parachuted into a Spanish storybook setting."

"A family film where the adventure and invention never flag and the tongue-in-cheek humor doesn't linger far behind."

"A perfectly diverting romp that happens to showcase some of the best 3D work yet from a mainstream animated feature."

"Beautifully animated (with 3-D that adds nothing), but the film is so mindlessly busy that it seems to be trying to distract you from the likable, one-note feline swashbuckler at its center."

"Like most kittens, it's not always perfectly behaved, but at least this new Puss adventure doesn't have you reaching for the cinematic spray bottle. And thank goodness the spin-off does nothing to neuter the charismatic cat's appeal."

"As a sheer visual experience, Puss In Boots makes a great theme-park ride, a thrill-a-minute feast for the eyes and the semicircular canals"
