Summary: What's wrong with people?
Review: I can't tell you how many people have told me this is a great movie. How much milege can we get from cliches and then the ridicule of cliches. True love? The music doesn't fit at all, (Hey now your an all star... in the opening credits, come on.)Mike Myers with an inconsistent Scottish accent which he already sold us in Austin Powers.It also is prejudiced against short people. All the DVD extras can't hide the fact that this is an insulting movie for adults and kids. Hollwood has finally killed all sense of taste and originality. I'll take disney (minus the musical numbers) any day.

Summary: Ruined by glitches
Review: Each of the two discs (full screen and letterbox) had enough glitches to completely RUIN an otherwise enjoyable film. Where is the quality control? Why should the consumer have to make a second trip to the store to return a 19.99 item?

Summary: A great new fairy tale for a new age
Review: Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) is not your typical hero. He is a big, clumsy ogre that uses his looks to strike fear in the hearts of others and keep everyone away from him. Everyone, that is, except a talking donkey (voiced by Eddie Murphy) who does not know when to keep his mouth shut. The evil Lord Farquaad (voiced by John Lithgow) has captured all of the traditional fairy tale creatures and banished them to Shrek's swamp. Desperate to have his home back, Shrek meets with the Farquaad and strikes a deal with him. Farquaad needs to marry a princess if he wants to become a king. If Shrek will rescue a princess being kept by a deadly fire-breathing dragon(voiced by Cameron Diaz,) Farquaad will remove the characters from his land. Along the way is adventure, friendship, and hilarious Disney references.As every fairy tale has its "moral of the story," we learn that just because you are different doesn't mean that you are any less of a person than anyone else. That no matter how alone you feel, there is someone else in this world that feels that way, too. And that beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder. This DVD is packed with tons of extras including storyboards of scenes that were never used, what happens when a computer graphic goes wrong, and tons more! (In fact so much more that I haven't seen them all.) A great family film!

Summary: Superb!!
Review: This is one of my all time favorite movies! The voices of Eddie Murphy and Mike Myers are perfect for this kind of grand comedy. Me and my friends fell to the floor in tears and laughter when we saw it for the first time... it's a jewel eveybody should have in their collection! This is a movie you'll never get bored of. If you're in to comedy and witty remarks, this is your movie!
I can't wait for Dreamcast to release their next digital advventure.

Summary: Good, not great though. Still worth seeing
Review: Shrek is an ogre who of course has issues because the townspeople want him gone b/c he's ugly. Yada yada, don't judge skin color, race, ugliness message. The bulk of the movies entertainment though lies in it's irreverent humor, poking fun at hollywood cliches and most of all disney. You get the feeling the critics loved it so much was b/c they loved seeing disney get stabbed in the back. Its good, but probly not the second coming the critics seem to make it out to be.

Summary: So round, so firm, so fully packed
Review: Nice to see the industry finally figure out why we buy DVDs: extras! Tons of them in this 2-disc set, most of them great. As a movie, lots of fun and with a message that's close to the heart of those of us who aren't fairy-tale pretty. Like "Antz," however, there's a bit too much of an insistence on NOT being like Disney. This mostly works for them, but you sense they're looking over their shoulders and yelling, "Take THAT, Walt!" at times.

Summary: If you like foolishness, this is for you...
Review: I got this for my kids because everyone raved about how great it was. I was horrified that this movie was marketed for kids. It was crass and gross, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Summary: An unbelievably great movie
Review: Being a big fan of Disney, I was skeptical of Shrek at first. But it took no time for me to change my tune. This movie will suck you in early and never let go. The casting could not be better. Eddie Murphy is the perfect role for the donkey. The story is a great one with an even better message for children and adults alike! The music is fantastic (check out the soundtrack) and the special features on this 2 disc set make it an extraordinary value. Trust me, you and your family will enjoy this DVD over and over and over again.

Summary: The best DVD I ever bought...
Review: The review title says it all.. this DVD has got loads of extras which will take you some time to completely explore and enjoy ! It is awesome. Dreamworks has shown that they can give Disney a run for their money in the Animation world. The movie pokes fun at Disney characters like Snow white and some other fairy tale stuff which is the mainstay of Disney movies. Go ahead, take the untrodden path.. and see yourself guffaw like a jackass. By the way, a smart jackass in the movie (voiced by Eddie Murphy) is the funniest thing that happened to animation.
