Summary: Great Movie!
Review: When I first saw the previews it turned me away. I thought it was just going to be another dumb little kid movie. But as they say: Don't judge a book (or movie) by it's cover. it turned out to be one of my favorite movies. It is about a grumpy, lonely ogre that sets out to bring a princess back for a short lord who has a big ego. But he has to deal with a talking donkey that can never be quiet and a princess with a dark secret. Somewhere along the line somegthing happens that nobody expected. The princess and ogre fall in love with eachother but don't admit. Before they know it the princess is preparing to marry lor Farquad and Shrek is making his way back to his swamp. Will true love ever prevail?

Summary: It's not all that great!
Review: First of all, I must admit, the movie was funny, there were some good lines and it was after all quite entertaining. But I just cannot see what all the hype is about, I think "Shrek" is overrated and despite being funny at times, it is an ordinary fairy tale with no surprises. The positive aspects are of course that this movie can be enjoyed by adults as well by children. Although some references made in the movie are too difficult to understand for children, they are well understood by adults and some of them are absolutely hilarious. Another good thing about the movie is the soundtrack. Most of the songs have been well chosen to blend into the scenes and make "Shrek" even more fun to watch.
The negative aspects are however that the movie has been overrated. There are far better movies out there, even if you just look in this genre, you are bound to find better movies that have a more complex and less predictable plot. To sum up, I think the movie is entertaining to watch but I wouldn't waste my money on buying the DVD.

Summary: Simply Adorable.
Review: One can't really call this a children's movie, even with it's fairy tale charm and animated characters. People of all ages will love the time-honored tale of Beauty and the Beast - uh - with a twist, shall I say? A mean, ugly old ogre forms an unfriendly, unlikely, sometimes friendly, alliance with a donkey - whose voice is done by none other than Eddie Murphy. The donkey IS a pain in the ....rump, but without this donkey's help, Shrek the green ogre won't rescue the beautiful princess Fiona for Lord Farquar. The dragon (yes of course there is a dragon) is formidable, danger lurks everywhere, and the princess is trapped high in a fortress tower. Shrek's home, his "swamp", has been over-run by fairy tale creatures - all with no place to go since Lord Farquar has evicted them from their homes. Lord Farquar and Shrek make a deal: Shrek and the donkey rescue the Princess Fiona to be Lord Farquar's bride and Shrek will get his homey little swamp back. But what happens if things go awry? True love is never certain and often blind, but then, we all knew that. Didn't we?

Summary: What can anyone say bad about Shrek??
Review: I loved this movie! Original, fantastic writing, awesome animation/graphics! It's hilarious, perfectly cast, and the DVD has some awesome special features, including a special dance party scene with all the characters and commentary by the 'stars.' There's not a lot else I can say that hasn't been said in the tons of other reviews this movie has received. It's wonderful - I would recommend it to anyone. Kids will love it, and it's got humor for adults as well. Just phenominal!

Summary: SHREK IS A GREAT MOVIE FOR ALL AGES!
Review: SHREK IS A FANTASTIC FILM TO WATCH. ONE YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF RECULTANTLY WATCHING FOR YOUR KIDS, AND THEN SNEAKING AROUND AT TWO IN THE MORNING TO WATCH AGAIN. I JUST LOVED THE COLORFUL AND COMICAL CHARECTERS IN SHREK. DONKEY, PLAYED BY EDDIE MURPHY, IS THE HIT OF THE MOVIE, AS HIS ENDLESS RAMBELS ARE REALLY FUNNY.SHREK CAN ALSO MAKE YOU LAUGH, BUT IN A DIFFRENT SORT OF WAY. LORD FARQUAD'S CHARECTER MIGHT COME A BIT "SHORT" HOWEVER(WATCH THE MOVIE AND YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN.) BUT ALL AND ALL THIS IS A GREAT FILM FOR ALL AGES. YOU GET SOME LAUGHS, SOME SENTIMENTLE STUFF, AND A FIRE BREATHING DRAGON, WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?

Summary: Shrek & Donkey gave a good performance!
Review: This movie is hilarious! I mean donkey is the voice of Eddie Murphy and u know how funny he is.
Shrek(Mike Myers) was funny too although he can get serius sometimes.
Shrek and Donkey are trying to rescue princess Fiona(Cameron Diaz) from a dragon so they can return the princess to Lord Farquaad(John Lithgow) who took over Shrek's land with Fairy tale creatures. They are on this quest to get Shrek's home back.
The story line may seem childish but you will grow to like it as the movie goes by with funny moments.
The only thing about this movie is some of the humor is too grown for kids. I am warning you about that. If you see the movie for the first couple of times you will like it but then the movie gets old. But this is still a good movie to watch! See it!!!
