I'm not one of those persons who praises "Shrek" all the time as one of the greatest movies ever made, like many other persons seem to do. Quite frankly I never really understood what the hype was all about. But... Full review

"Shrek" is fun. People who haven't seen this movie, and are wary of seeing what's popular, should give it a try. It's worth watching, and will probably win you over.Taking a Fractured Fairy Tale approach to a "Beauty And The... Full review

Critics Reviews


The Land of Eric
What it is, is "Shrek," a new computer-animated film that is a legitimate fairy tale every bit as much as it makes fun of legitimate fairy tales. The story has some serious flaws -- it's not explained what goes on at Duloc, for example, nor why Farquaad was rounding up the fairy-tale folks in the first place -- and occasionally seems to go in certain directions just for the parodies available to it there. ... Full Review

Scott's Movie Reviews
Such is the case with the computer animated "Shrek," and thanks to a funny, clever, and smart screenplay, the film easily fits the bill as the best animated movie to hit the big screen since "Toy Story. In the end, "Shrek" is fast, funny, and furious, and in many ways, it's the perfect modern fairy tale. ... Full Review

When compared to, say, "Toy Story 2," "Shrek" doesn't seem as polished and perfect, which, honestly, is kinda nice; it's edgier. With a talking donkey (Eddie Murphy) as an unwanted sidekick, Shrek sets off rescue the fair Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) from her tower prison. ... Full Review

Reeling Reviews
Now, the newcomers have done their homework and have created a funny fairytale, in "Shrek," that rivals the best of the veteran animation giant. The story is told from the monster's point of view, a la John Garner's Beowulf satire, "Grendel," and our ogre, Shrek, is a likable hero figure right from the start. ... Full Review
