Hilarious!

As good as the first one. Puss in Boots, voiced by Antonio Banderas, is hysterical.

Is it out in the UK yet?

Ooooh, I can't wait... It'll be the first time my dd goes to the cinema as well, I've told her about it, and EVERY DAY she asks me when we're going to see Shrek (I suspect she thinks we're going to visit him in RL!)

Are there many "scary" bits? My dd2, just 4 liked Shrek 1 but only 'cos the dragon was a girl! She can be a bit of a woos at times so I'd love to know in advance. Dd1 can't wait to see it!

There was one bit that my 4 year old said was "scary", where they go into a dark and nasty pub full of losers. But she wasn't really scared. I would think anyone could see it.

I didn't notice any of their songs in it, but I may have missed it.

saw it a couple of nights ago. Totally hilarious, but I felt the humour was very adult-orientated (DH disagrees!)

Agree with you Kate - Puss in Boots is the star!

second rate second film. The idea of John Clease as the voice of the princess's father added insult to injury. Not an original idea or thought in the whole film. Kids and I V dissapointed. 3/10

Went to a charity premiere of this last night, and everyone there seemed to love it - even Charlotte Church .

I love the imagination in this kind of film - the potion factory, all the detail of Far Far Awayetc, etc..
In this house, our favourite is Puss....in Boots!

I thought this was great, real laugh out loud stuff. My kids loved it too (5 and 3) I think there is a lot of adult stuff that keeps us happy as well as plenty for the kids. Very clever, almost better than Shrek itself.

i love it, think its much better than the first but i think dd prefers the first one as she didnt really sit there and just watch it
