A Lesson in Reading Fine Print
31 December 2011
WARNING: This is not the real Puss n Boots. Admittedly, that seems like an obvious statement, but for this reviewer (and the unfortunate souls that watched it with her) it was not immediately apparent. We made our way to the local Redbox to grab a movie we thought everyone would like. Then we spotted Puss n Boots. Perfect! The reviews had been surprisingly positive and we thought it looked fun. So we went home, popped in the movie, and settled in for some animated entertainment. After bizarre previews and a random introduction by William Shatner, we got to the actual film. Strange, but okay. Then it started. The first thing we noticed was the terrible graphics. I said they looked like something from a Nickelodeon children's show; my brother said he had seen better quality on his video games. The characters were horrendous, the dubbing was a failure ... It wasn't until Puss showed up in pink boots that we finally realized something was terribly wrong. Turns out, we rented the wrong movie. Cleverly disguised as the Antonio Banderas version was truly awful thing that's not worthy of being called a film. It's poop on a reel. And you'd need a magnifying glass to read Redbox's fine print. Renter beware.
