    Excellent idea and really enjoyable

    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.

    Cross Between Cartoon and Video game

    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.

    Amusing, yet rather pointless

    The concept is nice. But it lacks the polishing of Shrek. A quick exploitation movie, typical of Dreamworks. Pixar can work wonders in 5 minutes. Dreamworks writers struggle in 15 minutes.
