Review of Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) by Mattyice — 28 Dec 2022
One would never think a sequel to a long forgotten Shrek spinoff movie would be one of Dreamworks' best projects ever, and yet Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is just that. The film is gorgeously animated, featuring a 2D/3D hybrid similar to the likes of Spider-Verse and Mitchells vs.
the Machines, yet improved upon in some manners. The voice cast is beyond exceptional, from the returning actors in Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek, as well as newcomers in Florence Pugh and John Mulaney.
Finally, and most important, the writing of this film is masterful, blending both excellent humor aimed at a more mature audience (like the Shrek movies) and deep subject matter relating to making the most of the life we do have and the people we spend it with, all of which told in a great story.
I cannot recommend this film enough, and I cannot wait for more returns to Far Far Away in the future Shrek installments this is setting up.
