Howdy!
It's been months since I did my last piece. Has it been a year? (I'm quite sure I'm not that lazy hehe).
Just wanted to post something on this Pussy of a movie. My rating? Perfect. (I've learned to perfectly enjoy a movie is to enjoy it first, criticize later after a few more views :D)
Well being an visual artist myself, it was a treat seeing this 3D generation age compared to yesteryears' cartoon movies of 2D animation. Although yesteryears' movies had it's originality story wise, I think visually this edition is a different monster throughout.
Puss in Boots is originally french (thus you see Puss in musketeer clothing) in origin but Dreamwork's version of the story totally differs from it's forerunner. Maybe because in the original we can never see Humpty Dumpty, Kitty Softpaws and others in the original? Yes maybe but really it's a different story just to make a BIG point.
Cast was amazing the talents who lent their voices were splendid, almost au naturel.
Jack and Jill portrayal was hilarious, (Spoiler Alert!) as hulking couple instead of kids. Although you can guess the flow of the story (as it has always been in the same format be it fairy tale or real men movies) the real spectacle is the fabulous retelling of an almost ancient story and it's visuals.
Kudos to the producer, Director, artists and cast. Would recommend it for general viewing public entertainment. 1 1/2 hours well spent! Cheers!
