David McK (3649 KP) rated Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) in Movies
Jan 6, 2025
So much so, that he got his own spin-off in 2011 'Puss in Boots' which, from memory, I felt lacked the spark of his earlier entries.
So much so, that it was just over a decade later that he got his second solo movie, in this.
Which, artistically (and, I felt, to it's detriment) takes its cue from the 'Into the Spider-verse' movies and so, like those, comes across as an over-caffeinated sugar-rush of a headache, which (IMO) overshadows the whole message about found family and living your life to its fullest.
YMMV, of course.
