Summary
Animated comedy sequel featuring the voice of Antonio Banderas. With eight of his nine lives used up, it looks like the swashbuckling high life is over for Puss unless he can reach a magical land where wishes come true. An epic quest begins, but there are others with their eyes on the prize, too.

A star rating of 4 out of 5.

Puss in Boots faces an existential crisis in this riotously fun, Oscar-nominated sequel from DreamWorks. Having recklessly used up eight of his nine lives, the fearless feline is forced to accept that his roistering days are over - unless he can restore his vitality by wishing on a star. However, he's not alone in his search for the mythical land where it can be found, and so begins a race for the prize. As voiced by Antonio Banderas, Puss oozes charm from every paw, with his new-found vulnerability making his character all the more endearing. Among the rest of the fairy-tale supporting cast, Goldilocks and the Three Bears get a coarse, cor-blimey makeover courtesy of Florence Pugh, Olivia Colman, Samson Kayo and (naturally) Ray Winstone, while John Mulaney bags all the best lines as a truly monstrous Jack Horner. The animation particularly comes alive during the anime-styled action scenes, while the sharp script delivers gags galore and pleasing nods to The Wizard of Oz, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and the wider Shrek-verse. Coming 11 years after the original Puss in Boots film, The Last Wish proves a sensational, swashbuckling return for everyone's favourite costumed cat.
