Shrek 2

Saturday, 2 October 2004 ‡ 17:35

Typical married couple lovey dovey stuff until the outlaws are mentioned and then the argument's start.

Again, well made, funny with typical everyday humour. It's fun to see how the makers of Shrek and Shrek2 have put a twist on the names of shops and places, food and other things we see today in the film. I know it has been done in other films.

This is where we get to see Shrek as a human. My wife quite fancied the human version of Shrek. I can see the ever so slight Cameron in Princess Fiona, but not a shread of Myers as Shrek human. Donkey is transformed into a powerful white horse.

The story goes that Princess Fiona was supposed to marry Prince Charming, but she obviously fell for Shrek. So a ploy to lure the happy couple by Princess Fiona's parents in an attempt to keep Prince Charming's mother happy, who is actually blackmailing the King... now i insist you go out and rent or buy the film, well worth the effort. Good all round family entertainment.
