Puss In Boots: The Last Wish Review - Spectacular Animation, Underwhelming Story
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is the return of everyone's favourite animated feline. The sequel, which was directed by Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado from a screenplay by Paul Fisher and Tommy Swerdlow, is better than its predecessor and has more depth. It features a fresh adventure and an impressive animation technique. Puss in Boots, who was originally seen in Shrek 2, has time to shine and reflect on his inner life during this period. But Puss in Boots: The Last Wish falls short of its full potential due to an excessive number of characters and a lack of emotion.
Puss in Boots is in a difficult situation. Puss in Boots is on his final one of his nine lives after taking part in so many thrilling adventures and heroic battles. In a departure from the traditional story the character is normally in, the Big Bad Wol is also after him. Puss in Boots, who is terrified of dying, teams up with an old flame, Kitty Softpaws, and Perro to search for The Last Wish in order to restore his nine lives. The only problem is that he needs to get there before Goldilocks and the Three Bears, played by Olivia Colman as Mama Bear, Ray Winston as Papa Bear, and Samson Kayo as Baby Bear.
There are moments of humour in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, and when they do, the movie can be quite entertaining. One of the best animation styles of the year, the animation is also outstanding. It was a wise choice for The Last Wish to depart from the original Puss in Boots' animation style. To bring its visual palette to life, the sequel's animation is obviously influenced by Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and anime. In order to do this, the animation style is enhanced by combining 2D and 3D animation rather than adhering to a single style. It gives the animation and the environment it generates more depth.
