My review was written in June 1989 after watching the movie on Warner/Cannon video cassette.

One of the better examples of Cannon's "Movie Tales" feature series of a couple of years back, "Puss in Boots" offers a fine change of pace for Christopher Walken as a song & dance cat.

Jason Connery plays a young man on the road with his inheritance, a tabby cat that turns into human form (Walken) at ill. Cat promises him wealth and success, which Walken proceeds to earn by fooling a king (Yossi Graber) in awarding his daughter's hand to Connery, while appropriating the vast castle and wealth of an ogre (Amnon Meskin).

Briefly released last year theatrically and now a home video title, "Puss" features several fun songs, belted with verve by Walken; Connery is dubbed for his vocals. Sets and other tech credits are okay for this lensed-in-Israel pic.
