My Review: SHREK 3

By Mr. Eleven Something.

Overall : 5/10

Don’t get me wrong this movie is not terrible or anything but it’s just mediocre to me. Storyline wise that is. The animation is good. But a movie SHOULD be about a good plot line and this film falls short of that.

The characters have potential but they weren’t expanded. Maybe I would favor this film more if I was 14 or 15 years old but the problem is I’m not. As my friend said it, it’s a movie full of one liners. It’s entertaining to watch with a friend for a good laugh but don’t expect too much. Hollywood movies these days are really lacking the one thing they should focus on and that is a good story to tell and not just a bunch of funny scenes stitch together into 1 movie regardless of its flow.

I don't know how they did it, but The Incredibles & Cars really had it on target. Shrek seem to have all the elements but the magic is not there somehow. Maybe it's just the Disney magic. Or maybe I'm just a sucker for good ol' fashion story telling.
