Puss in the boots is one hell of a good story and you made it difficult to watch!

A great reminder of the original European Fairy tales. I loved it, kids loved it and watch it over and over. They care for the stories & entertainment which were written centuries ago, not the profit money making studios.This films portrays one of the most ORIGINAL stories back from the 17th Century. NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH DREAMWORKS SHERK. Dreamworks have created a great entertaining masterpiece & brought together a memorable array of characters which date back over centuries, however lets not loose the authenticity of where all those characters originated from and the tales that were created.I would be disappointed if the kids grew to know Puss in Boots based on just Sherk.. I mean, isn't Lord Farguaad suppose to be the love child of the princess from the Princess and the Pea & grumpy?? A twist designed for adult entertainment.

Based on the cover of the DVD, my children and I honestly thought we were renting the new Dreamwork's movie "Puss and Boots" already out in time for the holidays.I don't understand what is happening here. The DVD was on the "New Releases" shelves of our video store, but the released date is 2009... Is this a new re-release in order to mislead people into buying or renting this dreadful movie ? They obliviously designed a cover picture to look exactly like the beloved Shrek character. Dreamwork should sue them our of their misery.Stay away from this movie.

The sole purpose of creating films like these is to attempt to fool consumers into renting the wrong movie. Yes, looking really carefully on the cover can help avoid this sometimes (assuming you know what the "real" one actually looks like, and take the time to check in detail), but the companies that produce these kinds of films are just looking to make a quick buck. These movies are constantly released through outlets such as Redbox.Second, the movie is dull, extremely shallow and poorly written, that any Saturday morning cartoon is far superior to this rubbish. I will rarely criticize a movie on visual/technical qualities, but for ones that do a terrible job at the most basic story-telling I have little tolerance. Many of the sequences for even annoying and silly.
