Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is a 2022 American computer-animated adventure film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Universal Pictures. The sequel to the spin-off film Puss in Boots (2011) and the sixth installment in the Shrek franchise, the film was directed by Joel Crawford and co-directed by Januel Mercado. Based on the character from Shrek 2 (2004) and inspired from the fairy tale by Giovanni Francesco Straparola, the film's screenplay was written by Paul Fisher and Tommy Swerdlow, with a story by Swerdlow and Tom Wheeler (the latter of whom wrote the 2011 film). The voice cast of Puss in Boots: The Last Wish includes Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek Pinault reprising their respective roles as the titular character and Kitty Softpaws, and are joined by Harvey Guillén, Florence Pugh, Olivia Colman, Ray Winstone, Samson Kayo, John Mulaney, Wagner Moura, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, and Anthony Mendez, who voice new characters introduced in the film. Set after Shrek Forever After (2010), the film follows Puss in Boots as he journeys to find the mystical Last Wish for the Wishing Star by teaming up with Kitty and Perrito (Guillén) to restore the first eight of his nine lives, by wishing on the mystical Last Wishing Star. They must race against Goldilocks and her Three Bears Crime Family (Pugh, Winstone, Colman, and Kayo), and "Big" Jack Horner (Mulaney), who all desire the star; Puss must also avoid a mysterious hooded wolf (Moura), who plots to kill him.

Plans for a sequel to Puss in Boots began in November 2012, when executive producer Guillermo del Toro shared plans to take the titular character on an adventure to a "very exotic locale", who also stated a couple of drafts for the screenplay were completed. Work on a sequel began in April 2014, according to Banderas. The film's title was announced as Puss in Boots 2: Nine Lives & 40 Thieves in June 2014. After being stuck in development hell, the project was revived in November 2018, with Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri confirmed to be an executive producer. It was announced that the film would be helmed by Bob Persichetti, the head of story of the first film and one of the three directors of Sony Pictures Animation's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), in February 2019. Crawford was later announced as the new director in March 2021, along with Mercado. The majority of the new cast members, along with Pinault's return, were announced in March 2022. The story drew inspiration from Spaghetti Western films, with The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966) being cited as a particular influence. As with DreamWorks' previous film The Bad Guys (2022), the inspiration for the film's animation style came from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which gives it a visual style that resembles storybook illustrations. Rather than utilize the more realistic style introduced in Shrek (2001), the team focused more on a painterly style design, to make the film look like a fairy-tale world by using new technology.

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish premiered at Lincoln Center in New York City on December 13, 2022, and was theatrically released in the United States on December 21, 2022, after being delayed due to restructuring at DreamWorks. The film became a critical and commercial success, grossing over $393 million worldwide on a production budget of $90 million, becoming the second highest-grossing animated film of 2022. It was nominated for Best Animated Feature Film and numerous accolades, including at the Academy Awards, Golden Globes, Critics' Choice Awards, and British Academy Film Awards.

Plot[]

In the town of Del Mar, renowned hero and outlaw Puss in Boots hosts a party at the governor's home and accidentally awakens the nearby Sleeping Giant of Del Mar. Puss subdues the giant and saves the town, but is fatally crushed by a bell. Puss wakes up in a hospital, where a doctor informs him that he has used eight of his nine lives and suggests he retire from adventuring. Puss initially refuses. Later, in a local cantina, Puss meets a mysterious black-hooded wolf, who disarms him and gashes his forehead in a duel. Puss flees to the house of a cat lady named Mama Luna, and ceremoniously buries his attire in her garden.

Later, the crime family of Goldilocks and the Three Bears show up at Luna's residence in search of Puss, only to find his "grave." Puss overhears them mention a magical Wishing Star that can grant a single wish to someone bearing its map. ”Big” Jack Horner, a corrupt pastry chef and collector of magical artifacts, is scheduled to receive the map that night; Puss breaks into Horner's bakery to steal the map and restore his lives, unexpectedly reuniting with his resentful ex-fiancée, Kitty Softpaws, who also seeks the map. After a brief skirmish with Goldi and Horner, Puss, Kitty, and a stray dog the cats call Perrito[n 1] escape with the map. Goldi, the bears, Horner, and his henchmen give chase, and Puss spots the hooded wolf again while fleeing.

The map leads the trio to the Dark Forest, a pocket dimension that changes its terrain depending on the map's holder. Puss and Kitty both receive dark, frightening landscapes, while Perrito's is a colorful and seemingly tranquil forest. During another skirmish with Horner's and Goldi's forces, Puss spots the hooded wolf again and flees, distracting Kitty and enabling Goldi to obtain the map. After Perrito calms him down from a panic attack, Puss confesses that he left Kitty at the altar on their wedding day. Kitty overhears them, and later reveals that she never attended the wedding either, feeling that she could never compete with someone who loved himself more than her.

Puss and Kitty reclaim the map from Goldi when her group gets distracted by a manifestation of their woodland cottage. As the landscape morphs, Perrito is captured by the bears, while Puss is trapped in a crystalline cave. While Kitty retrieves Perrito alone, Puss encounters crystal reflections of his past lives in the cave, who mock him for changing his arrogant attitude. The hooded wolf appears once again, introduces himself as Death, and reveals to Puss that he is to kill him for squandering through his past eight lives. Panicked, Puss flees with the map, an act which Kitty and Perrito witness from afar. Meanwhile, Goldi, after a squander with Baby Bear, reveals that she wishes to reunite with her biological family, devastating the bears; however, they still agree to help her.

Puss reaches the Wishing Star, but Kitty berates him for his selfishness, while also confessing her wish was to find someone she could trust. Goldi, the bears, and Horner arrive and another fight ensues, during which Goldi forfeits the wish to save Baby Bear's life and Horner is trapped inside his magical bottomless bag. Death arrives, surrounds himself and Puss with a ring of fire, and challenges Puss to a duel. Instead of wishing for more lives, Puss fights and disarms Death, boldly stating that while he knows he cannot win, he will continue fighting for his final life. Seeing that Puss has lost his arrogance, Death begrudgingly spares him, although he and Puss agree they will eventually meet again. After Death leaves, Horner, having eaten a magic growth cookie, reemerges from his bag as a giant and seizes the map from Puss and Kitty. As he attempts to make his wish to control all magic, Perrito distracts him long enough for Puss, Kitty, and Goldi to rip the map to shreds, causing the Wishing Star to collapse and consume Horner.

In the aftermath, Goldi accepts the bears as her family and leaves with them to take over Horner's bakery business, while Puss rekindles his romance with Kitty. Sometime later, Puss, Kitty, and Perrito steal a ship from Del Mar's governor and set sail to visit "some old friends".

In November 2012, executive producer Guillermo del Toro shared director Chris Miller's intentions to take the titular character on an adventure to a "very exotic locale." He also said a couple of drafts for the screenplay were completed.[10] In April 2014, voice actor Antonio Banderas said work on the sequel had begun.[5] On June 12, 2014, the movie was titled Puss in Boots 2: Nine Lives & 40 Thieves.[11] In March 2015, Banderas said the script was under restructuring. He also hinted at the possibility of Shrek appearing in the film.[12]

By November 2018, Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri had been brought on board as an executive producer of both Shrek 5 and Puss in Boots 2.[13][14] In February 2019, it was reported that Bob Persichetti was set to direct the film while Latifa Ouaou, producer of the first film, would oversee the development of the sequel with Meledandri; Persichetti and Ouaou previously worked on the first film as head of story and producer, respectively.[15] On August 19, 2020, DreamWorks trademarked Puss in Boots: The Last Wish as the new title of the sequel, which was approved in December.[16] In March 2021, Joel Crawford replaced Persichetti as director, having previously helmed DreamWorks' The Croods: A New Age (2020), with producer Mark Swift, editor James Ryan, and screenwriter Paul Fisher returning as collaborators along with Januel Mercado serving as the film's co-director.[6][17] Along with Salma Hayek (now named as Salma Hayek Pinault) reprising her voice role, new cast members were announced in March 2022, including Harvey Guillén, Florence Pugh, Olivia Colman, Ray Winstone, Samson Kayo, John Mulaney, Wagner Moura, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, and Anthony Mendez.[6]

Writing[]

While wanting the film to retain the adult humor from previous entries, Crawford also wanted the film to have a darker tone, with Puss' mortality and fear of death being the film's main focus,[18] wanting to use the concept of Puss being in his last life tell a story about how to enjoy life.[19][20] Swift felt the Shrek franchise being over 20 years old by the time the project entered production allowed the film to explore darker themes than its predecessors.[18] He drew inspiration from fairytales by the Brothers Grimm and how they were "cautionary tales that took you somewhere dark to make you appreciate the light".[21] This also influenced the decision to depict Death as a wolf, as wolves in Brothers Grimm's stories were depicted as "the personification of fear".[21] Other influences for the film include Spaghetti Westerns films, due to how those films managed to balance between different tones.[21] The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly was cited as a particular influence on the film's plot.[18]

Crawford said he wanted the film's comedy to be "edgy" in the vein of Shrek (2001), aiming to honor what audiences loved from previous entries, although still wanting to do something different with the franchise instead of retreading familiar ground.[19][22] He also was interested in including more characters from the franchise, albeit not at the expense of the film's story.[19] He also felt that "one foot of Puss in Boots is dipped in the Shrek fairy tale world, but another one is in the spaghetti western world", and aiming to balance both aspects influenced certain decisions for the film.[22]

For the film's opening sequence, the producers didn't want to simply re-introduce the character to general audiences, but also to "[introduce] the world to where the character is now" by establishing him as a celebrity, with the writers drawing inspiration from Mick Jagger.[18] Crawford wanted Puss to start the film as a "larger than life"-type of figure who comes to embrace his vulnerability.[23] Swift described the story as being about Puss "[having] to figure out who am I without all the things that people value in me?".[18] The idea of featuring a scene of Puss having a panic attack was conceived after the team deemed Puss expressing his vulnerabIlities verbally as "insincere", whereas a panic attack was seen as a "natural point" for the character that would force Puss to "let down the facade of being a fearless hero". For the scene, Crawford and storyboard artist Taylor Meacham drew from their personal experiences.[23]

Animation and design[]

As with DreamWorks' previous film The Bad Guys (2022), the film's design was inspired by Sony Pictures Animation's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), to make the film look more like storybook illustrations, from an idea suggested by production designer Nate Wragg.[24][25][26] In February 2019, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse director Bob Persichetti was set to helm Puss in Boots: The Last Wish,[15] before he was replaced by Crawford in March 2021.[17] Using new technology, the team at DreamWorks focused more on a painterly style design, to make the film look like a fairy-tale world, different than what it was in Shrek (2001) from their defunct studio Pacific Data Images.[27][18]

Music[]

Heitor Pereira composed the film's score, replacing Henry Jackman from the first film.[28] Additionally, three original songs were made for the film by Karol G, Daniel Oviedo, Heitor Pereira, Paul Fisher, Dan Navarro, and Gaby Moreno. Karol G performs "La Vida es Una", co-written by herself and Daniel Oviedo and released on December 8, 2022[29] while Heitor Pereira co-wrote two songs titled "Fearless Hero", performed by Antonio Banderas and co-written by Dan Navarro and Paul Fisher, and "Por Que Te Vas", co-written with and performed by Gaby Moreno.[30] The soundtrack was released on December 16, 2022 by Back Lot Music, in addition to cover of the Doors' "This Is the End" performed by Dan Navarro.[31] Music from Shrek 2 was used in the film by Harry Gregson-Williams from the tracks "Obliged to Help" and "The End / Happily Ever After".

Release[]

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish premiered at Lincoln Center in New York City on December 13, 2022,[32] and was theatrically released on December 21, 2022. It was originally scheduled to be released on November 2, 2018,[11] and later on December 21, 2018,[33] before it was removed from the release schedule altogether in January 2015 due to corporate restructuring and DreamWorks Animation's new policy to release just two films a year.[34][35] Upon the project's resurrection, it was given a release date of September 23, 2022 in March 2021,[17] but in April 2022, the release date was moved to its current December 21 date, taking over the release of Illumination's The Super Mario Bros. Movie.[36] A one-day public screening occurred on November 26, 2022, in select theaters.[37][38]

The first thirty minutes of the film were shown at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 14, 2022. Critics noted the darker tone of the movie when compared to its predecessor and director Joel Crawford agreed with them, mentioning that Puss' "fear of death is the engine that drives the movie".[39][18]

The film also debuted a new animated logo opening for DreamWorks Animation, showcasing characters from The Bad Guys, How to Train Your Dragon, Kung Fu Panda, The Boss Baby, Trolls, and Shrek with a remastered rendition of the 2010 fanfare composed by Harry Gregson-Williams mixed with several notes from the 2019 fanfare composed by John Powell, produced by Suzanne Buirgy from Abominable and Kendall Cronkhite from Trolls served as the production designer.[40]

As part of their 18-month deal with Netflix, the film will stream on Peacock for the first four months of the pay-TV window, then move to Netflix for the next ten, and then will return to Peacock for the remaining four.[41]

Reception[]

Box office[]

As of February 12, 2023, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish has grossed $158.5 million in the United States and Canada, and $235.2 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $393.7 million.[3][4]

In the United States and Canada, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish was projected to gross $25–30 million from 4,000 theaters over its four-day opening weekend.[2] The film made $3.2 million on its first day and $2.9 million on its second, with The Hollywood Reporter noting that Winter Storm Elliot and the threat of a tripledemic surge in COVID-19 and flu cases could affect the box office in the subsequent days.[42] It went on to debut to $12.4 million in its opening weekend (and an estimated total of $26.2 million over the six days), finishing second behind holdover Avatar: The Way of Water.[43][44] Despite opening below projections, Universal’s president of domestic distribution Jim Orr and box office analysts believed the film could make up ground in the coming weeks through word-of-mouth and schools being on holiday.[45] In its second weekend, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish grew 35% from its debut weekend, grossing $16.8 million.[46][47] Its third weekend, the film fell 19% with $13.5 million, which was the first non-holiday weekend in its run.[48][49] The film made $14.5 million in its fourth weekend and $18.9 million over the four day Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend (Friday–Monday) while also crossing the $100 million mark at the United States and Canadian box office.[50][51]

Critical response[]

Template:RT prose[52] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 73 out of 100, based on 27 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[53] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale, while PostTrak reported 89% of audience members gave it a positive score.[43]

IGN's Rafael Motamayor gave a rating of 9 out of 10 and wrote: "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish mixes stunning animation with a poignant, surprisingly mature story to deliver the Shrek franchise's answer to Logan we didn't know we needed."[54] Christy Lemire of RogerEbert.com wrote that after a "roaring start", the film "sags a bit in the midsection as it becomes clear that we're in for a pretty standard quest." She did, however praise that the film manages to "convey messages of selflessness and teamwork in a way that doesn't feel heavy-handed or cloying", along with the voice performances and visuals.[55] Nate Richards of Collider gave the film an A-, saying: "Nothing in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish feels lazy, it more than justifies the long wait. It is not only one of the best animated films of the year, but it's one of DreamWorks' best, and one that will strike a chord with moviegoers of all ages. It's equal parts exciting and hilarious as well as earnest, it never feels like it is talking down to anyone. With The Bad Guys and now Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, it is more than safe to say that DreamWorks is back and (maybe) better than ever."[56]

Peter Debruge of Variety gave the film a positive review, saying the film was "DWA's best film since the How to Train Your Dragon trilogy."[57] Maxance Vincent of Loud and Clear gave the film four out of five stars, saying: "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is finally giving me hope that the Shrek franchise may not be dead yet. The film opens with one of the most thrilling action set pieces I've seen in an animated film all year (and probably the most thrilling one, since I won't watch another animated film before the end of the year), impeccably scored by Heitor Perreira as our titular character (Antonio Banderas) sings 'Who is our favorite fearless hero?' as he battles a giant. I was locked into the movie, and there was no going back."[58] Emma Stefansky of IndieWire also gave a positive review, enjoying the fact that the film "has no qualms about testing the expectations of its young audience while delivering a freewheeling tale about appreciating the nine lives we already have."[59] Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a mixed review, writing "darker in tone but still extremely funny, the film, like so many of its animated brethren, falters when resorting to the frenetic action sequences seemingly designed for tykes' short attention spans."[9] William Bibbiani of TheWrap also gave a mixed review, summarizing that "there are comic moments that land, and action set pieces that pop, but the overwhelming sensation here is a meditation on the inevitability of death."[60]
