Not the finest offering from the Shrek lads, it's true, but this film has some good moments. As ever, it's at its best when the cats are most catlike, or when they're borrowing from other films, like the dance sequence at the beginning of Mission Impossible 2.
The plot and the characters' switiching loyalties and affections seem to go round in circles a bit, and there's an annoying split-screen effect which didn't do much for me, but the bouncy clouds are nice, and between that and the cats' nightclub there was enough to keep an (adult) audience satisfied and a new year hangover at bay.
