Video » In the same way Puss in Boots (voiced by Antonio Banderas) was the funniest thing in the latter "Shrek" movies, so is Humpty Dumpty in the new Oscar-nominated "Puss in Boots" spin-off.

Voiced by funnyman Zach Galifianakis ("The Hangover"), the bulbous egghead (literally) is a hilarious and silly addition to the fractured fairytales of this computer-animated universe. Meanwhile, Puss plays more the straight man (or kitty) in a new adventure in which he, his love interest, Kitty Softpaws (Salma Hayek), and Humpty look for the Golden Goose.
Humpty steals the show, cracking up the audience while almost cracking himself into bits, but it’s disappointing that Puss is not as frisky or fun as he ought to be.
The Blu-ray and DVD include a feature on the voice cast and deleted scenes as well as a bevy of interactive kids’ games. The Blu-ray also has an interesting picture-in-picture feature with interviews of the animators that runs alongside the movie.
