The film, which cost approximately $130 million to make, has thus far generated $335 million at the global box office.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The film&#8217;s plot is pretty straight forward &#8211; after discovering that he is left with only one out of his nine lives, Puss renounces his name as the \u201cDiablo Gato\u201d. As a result, Puss sets out to gain his eight lives back on a legendary quest into the unknown Black Forest where anything can happen.\u00a0It had been nearly eleven years since the last <em>Puss In Boots<\/em> movie was released, and this sequel did not disappoint. I walked into the theater thinking the film was going to be a movie for little kids and the writers might ruin what was once a great franchise, but I was completely wrong. The animation was excellent ( the quality appeared to be a lot better than the last<em> Puss in Boots <\/em>movie) and the film is not just for kids &#8211; it appeals to all ages. The main villain, Death, who takes the form of a white wolf in a black hooded cloak, is an excellent character and is easy to root against.  Well-written villains are sometimes hard to come by in animated films, so Death was a welcomed surprise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, I really enjoyed <em>Puss in Boots: The Last Wish<\/em>, and I\u2019m excited to see what <em>DreamWorks <\/em>will release next.\u00a0 <em>Puss in Boots: The Last Wish<\/em> is now available to buy or rent on all Video on Demand steaming services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Chloe DeFrancesco The Shrek spinoff, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, premiered in New York in December and was warmly received by both critics and fans.
