Went and watch Shrek last night at Cheras Leisure Mall. As far as I see it is not as good as the first one. In the earlier part of the movie it was quite slow and the actions only start to pick up roughly in the middle part. Some of the jokes are pretty quite lame. Probably I wasn’t expecting too much since the second one wasn’t that good either. The storyline isn’t that good but it does have some fun part. Like there was a part where Merlin trying to make the environment more nice for Shrek to have heart-to-heart chat with Artie. The visual was quite good. Dreamworks really did a good job on this part.

Synopsis

Being king isn’t for everyone, especially if you’re a prickly ogre who smells like the shallow end of a swamp. When Shrek married Fiona, the last thing he wanted was to rule Far Far Away, but when his frogger in-law, King Harold, suddenly croaks, Shrek is quickly fitted for the crown. Now, unless the reluctant would-be king can find a suitable replacement, he’ll be royally screwed for the rest of his days. As if Shrek didn’t have enough on his plate, Princess Fiona has another little surprise on the way. With his head spinning and his belly in knots, Shrek sets off on a quest to find the only other possible heir to the throne, Fiona’s long lost cousin Artie, an underachieving medieval high schooler. While the ogre is away, his old nemesis Prince Charming rears his handsome head and returns to the kingdom of Far Far Away with redemption on his shallow little mind. Even with Donkey and the ever-so-suave Puss in Boots by their side, its going to take and ogre sized effort and a whole lot of help from Fiona and her band of princess for Artie and Shrek to save the day and find their own “Happily Ever After”
