 | SHREK plays best as a kids film for adults. It is filled with amazing technology, raising the bar again for CGI filmmaking. And although kids will love the adult humor (flatuence, belching and sexual references), it might not be what Doctor Mom ordered.
The storyline, an hour and a half slap across the Disney feature films, and the orgainzation for that matter. Ironically, it is also one of the few drawbacks as the film makes fun of Disney marketing and turns around and becomes a major product of its own with Disneylike Synergy throughout.
The film sports video games, and at least 2 movie soundtracks to date... Eddie Murphy and John Litgow put in great vocal performances and must be acknowledged. Funny man Michael Myers takes a big risk, making his Ogre have an Irish Brogue that only succeeds on certain levels. Still, it is fun for the adults, especially those who've had to sit through other family films in the past twenty years. |

| Shrek is a cute movie, it's not as cute or as charming as Monster's Inc or Finding Nemo but it's quite good and as some funny moments. There is some adult humor sprinkled throughout the movie and there have been some complaints about that but I found it to be stuff that would probably go over most kids heads and most of it went by so fast that it took me several viewings to even catch some of the gags. |

| Shrek is, like, so darn funny! As a matter of fact, it is my second favorite computer animated movie next to Ice Age. It has all sorts of funny and vulgar moments in it, and the characters are well put together. Shrek is both heroic, cool, funny, and everything a big, irritable green ogre should be. Donkey is annoying, but in a funny way. You should've seen the part where he sings, and then he says: "And then I ate some rotten berries, man I had some strong gases eking out of my butt that day!" It's a classic moment! Oh, and the best part concerning Shrek himself(as far as I'm concerned)is the part where he is with Fiona, and she says: "Wait! Where are you going?!" and then he replies: "Well, I have to save my ass!" The catch is, he doesn't mean he needs to save himself, he's referring to the donkey! Get it? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Okay, next we go to Princess Fiona! She is very beautiful as a human, and better looking than most ogres when she turns into an ogress at night. She is very feisty and has terrific karate skills which I enjoyed seeing. Finally, she has a good way of snapping when she needs something. Then there's Lord Farquadd, who is an excellent villain. He is evil and malicious, just like a baddie should be. And he's funny, too. He's so vile, yet he's two feet tall! Remember at the end of the movie where he keeps saying he will be king, he will rule all and he will be master of the world and all that stuff, but then he gets eaten by a dragon, and isn't seen again except inside the dragon! What a terrific part! Absolutely perfect! And what makes it even more humiliating for Farquadd is that he didn't just get eaten by a dragon, but a girl one! Oh, and speaking of Dragon, here is my opinion on her! She has always been my favorite of all characters in the Shrek movie(due to her power, beauty, grace, and of course amazing knack for being funny)and still is to this day. The fact she's a girl makes it even better, for I love the ladies! Oh, back to Shrek! This movie is absolutely wonderful, and gutbustingly funny! And for anyone who likes comedy, computer animation, or fairy tales, I recommend this movie to all of them. Don't wait any longer! See Shrek on DVD as of this day! Go! Now! |

| This movie is very funny, combining ancient fairytale times with modernization. (parking lot in front of the king's castle) I think it's an awesome, but I don't think it's totally apporopriate for young kids. It has some crude humor and imatative behavior that I tihnk kids would imatate. |
