Watch Puss in Book: Trapped in an Epic Tale For Free

Too much of everything

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

"Puss in Book: Trapped in an Epic Tale" is a pretty long title for a 23-minute short film, but it describes accurately what this little film is about. In the center of it all is Puss in Boots (from Shrek and his own movie) and he ends up caught prisoner inside a book. There he has to go through all kinds of fantastic quests that involve dragons, evil (but hot) sorceresses and even Snow White. Several characters that you have come across in the PiB universe show up here too. It is actually an interactive short film really because in this animated video Puss keeps having the choice between two scenarios and not always the one that sounds better is the one that also turns out better (like with the Bears): Yeah many references in here to known tales like Goldilocks in the most recent mention. I thought this had many fun parts and the highlights were probably the interactions between narrator (the captor if you wanna call him like that) and Puss in Boots. Overall, it was quite funny cannot deny it and there were moments when I thought about giving it an even higher rating. And that comes from somebody who isn't even a huge PiB fan. Yet? If his other stuff is as good as this one here, this may soon change. Oh yeah, no Banderas in here, but the voice acting is pretty good without him too. Glee fans getting a treat as well. Thums up from me. Go check it out. I am not sure if Netflix/Dreamworks plan to turn this into a series or anything, but we will need to wait and see I guess. Bad for the cat as he would still be stuck in books for a long time. Godd for us though as it could be fun. I'D probably watch at some point.

My kids loved this! This is the first interactive show of its kind so we gave it a go and was glad we did. I hope it's the start of many to come as it is really enjoyable for children to control the story and get more out of what they are watching. Not to mention it makes them think a bit more during their 'screen time'. Fingers crossed Netflix brings this to more shows.As the other comments have mentioned it is not voiced by Antonio Banderas, I thought it was worth mentioning Eric Bauza has been voicing Puss in Boots for a long time now on Netflix and does a great job. Once you have watched a few of the episodes from the series you kind of forget it was ever any different.There is a lot of famous voices in this short so listen out. Danny Trejo's character was obvious before he even spoke as it has a resemblance to him lol!All in all I thoroughly recommend it if you want to entertain the kids.

An interactive new short, available on Netflix, it requires the user to control the story of Puss in Boots. At the start, the instructions tell the user to choose either the left or right directional buttons on a generic game pad. Something fun for kids, especially, but adults may be intrigued as well.During the course of the story, the user has two choices every few minutes to continue the story. There are around 10 or 11 choices the user can make. Ultimately, the goal is to help Puss in Boots escape the fairy tale book in which he is trapped.Antonio Banderas does not voice the famous feline in this adventure. That was the only downside. However, it was still fun and kids will enjoy the interaction. Thanks Netflix.

Puss in Boots fights off three soldiers to take a treasure chest. In it, he finds a book titled The Adventures of Puss in Boots. He opens the book and is sucked in. He is tormented by a mysterious Storyteller who keeps forcing Puss to choose an adventure.I do love Puss in Boots with his irreverent ways. It's a half-hour Netflix short and easy to check out. First off, Antonio Banderas is not doing the voice. It's not quite the same without him. It's understandable for these cheaper TV episodes. The story is disjointed as The Storyteller keeps interrupting the flow. It would have been better to have one fairy tale and stick to it. There are still a couple of funny moments and I do love my Puss in Boots.
