just a movie for cat fans

This is a movie dedicated to cat fans. Cat fans may be able to temporarily put away the "photobooks" of all kinds of funny cats. At the beginning of the film, in the close-up of the cat, the director confidently announces to all the audience: This is the one and only cat! Indeed, the cat can dance a sword, wear boots, and talk like Tom. In addition, the director's confidence may be more because he has carried forward the fashionable attribute of "cute". In the film, almost conceivable cat's "minor problems" and living habits, such as sleeping, washing face, drinking water, falling posture, sensitivity to light, etc., as well as people's perceptual understanding of cats, are interspersed without reservation. In The Adventures of Cat Hero. In addition to the sky and the ground, flying over the eaves and walls, the "glaucoma" that was lit up from time to time seemed to be more able to win the audience's attention.

Puss in Boots could be Zorro, just as Rango could be Eastwood. However, I regret to find that after the cat put on the boots, he embarked on the road of no return, and recruited the good and bad people around him into the team. As an action-adventure animation, shortly after the opening of the film, relying on fast switching scenes and dazzling chases, people quickly enter a very dynamic rhythm. At the same time, he did not forget to sing and dance to add to the fun. Although the technique was old-fashioned, it could still arouse the audience's adrenaline. Especially the musical instruments and the way of playing the "cute things" can also win a lot of goodwill. However, after this underground performance, I can no longer show more "favorable feelings" to "Puss in Boots", those who go astray from time to time (the final boss turned out to be like this), It has become the mainstay of sticking to goodwill.

Despite its beautiful packaging, Puss in Boots doesn't surprise audiences with its story. Maybe it's too hard to tell the story of an animated film. "Puss in Boots" is a master of all things, such as friendship, family affection, love, the pursuit of self-worth, and the relationship between man and nature. It's just that the arms of the film are not that long. Although I want to use a powerful momentum of "holding my sister in my arms and killing it", I want to make the audience feel "heartbroken", but I don't want to fall for it myself. There is no coherent story, which makes the film difficult and long. Whether it is the pursuit of the canyon, the magic beans breaking the ground or the arrival of the last goose, these familiar plots are spliced ​​together without freshness. I imagined the end of the story: in the canyon, two villains were defeated, and the story ended; the magic beans broke the ground, the last treasure was found, and the story ended; Aunt Goose came, the cat hero saved the world, and the story ended. Each paragraph can be an ending that is as good as the other two, just in a different order. Maybe the film pays too much attention to the behavior of the characters, loses a desire to express, and all the narrative is trampled under the feet of dancing cats. The result is that this is just an ordinary dance, enough dancing, let's go home to wash and sleep.

In the middle of the film is also inserted a memory of a past event, including friendship and family, betrayal and trust. Obviously, such a thin memory cannot hold so many things. This memory can only add a little more tragic and solemnity to Mr. Egg's sacrifice of life in the selected third ending, and bring a little twist to the story that has not many ups and downs.

Puss in Boots doesn't have the full joy of parody westerns that Rango does, and even some of the details that try to make people laugh are a little underaged. However, some people just prefer a cat to a green-skinned lizard.
