A few days ago (I know, I'm behind on my BC postings), I took the time to catch the sequel to Shrek. The original flick was good, kind of an anti-fable with dark humor. Accordingly, I had some high expectations for the second go 'round.
I rather liked this movie. Antonio Banderas voices the part of Puss In Boots, and he was easily the best character in the story; anytime he was on screen, I was almost always laughing (particularly with the eyes). The writing took some time to get started, but it coasted along on the same dark rail as the first film, slyly working over the fairy tales with a rather modern sardonicism.
No watch time; I was enjoying the movie so much, I didn't look down.
