DreamWorks really upped the ante...

"You're not living up to the legend, Gato!"

Imagine being 80 years old and chillin on the rocking chair and you suddenly hear the whistle😳

[kurtrelljackson]

I love that the 9 lives thing at best annoys Death but the fact that Puss didn’t value them makes him furious

[Fubnin]

What I loved most about this villain is he won, he taught Puss the lesson he should’ve always known. Respect death, respect the life we yet live.

[botakgaming]

realest dreamworks movie teaching kids to value life

[EncyclopediaBrittanica]

What I love the most is that he's not technically a villain. He's not a "bad guy". He just wants natural order as a force of nature.

[snape_head]

I like how Dreamworks didn't take the easy route and make Puss win Death, but instead Puss understands that Death is something he will have to face eventually.

[Raghetiel]

I love the crystal cave scene. Death just tells him that he's not on a job, and doesn't care about natural process. It's personal

[DFk]

How the fuck did we go from Humpty Dumpty being the villain to death

[mackleven]

2:57 Death telling Boots to “Pick it up”. Thought he was saying it to scare and bully Boots but he actually telling him to fight for his life and not make it easy. A subtle life lesson

[CaptainPancakes]

A sequel to a spin-off of a Shrek sequel had no business being this good.

[Megacooler_]

This is what happens when you have good writters, designers, ect. for a movie/story. I hope they keep this up

*"Puss in boots has never been touched by a blade"*
_>Proceeds to immediately get cut by Death's blade_

[darwinrodriguez]

You know a movie's amazing when they made an antagonist that just shows up for 10 minutes of the movie feel like a constant, terrifying presence

[justVengeance]

Dreamworks just made an *animated pyschological thriller-action-drama* movie. And it's a masterpiece

[-Raylight]

You know they've successfully write a terrifying character when he's only 10 minutes on screen and made us hold our breath

[Raphael]

How did Dreamworks come from this masterpiece to Kungfu Panda 4 and Megamind 2?

[moviewolverine]

This movie actually had 3 great villains. One that was terrifying but fair, one that was misguided but redeemable, and one that was truly evil but hilariously entertaining. Pretty impressive from a storytelling standpoint.

[RandoSando.]

No one:
Some psycho at DreamWorks: so what if we lowkey made this a horror movie

[bdletoast]

That single drop of blood carries so much weight to it. They used it perfectly, because it's not just to show how dangerous the ennemy is, because it managed to make Puss bleed. It grounds Death into reality. This is an animated movie, they usually don't show blood, when this drop fell, it was a sign that this wasn't just a threat for the sake of the narrative, this was Puss facing death for real.

[Ridlay_]

What I love about the whistle is that it isn't just a means to make Puss' hair stand on end. No, the real intention was to make the audience's hair stand on end. At any point in the movie, you could just hear that deathly whistle. It was always when you least expected it, too invested in what else was going on, and you ALWAYS knew what it meant.
