Summary: SHREK RULES
Review: After staying up countless nights, guzzling coke and longing to see the newest animated movie, Shrek, I expected (as usual with DreamWorks's rival Disney) to be let down. All the anticipation, the longing, it could never be justified by a movie, even one that looked as good as Shrek (usually they put all the good parts in the trailer).

On the morning of the 18, as I took of work just to see Shrek at the earliest possible showing, I was overjoyed to find along with a tale for kiddies, Shrek was filled with humor itended for adults. None of that solid kiddie Pokemon, this was a movie aimed at adults, no question (the animation promised to bring in the kids, the humor promises to bring in the adults).

This parody of all the wonderful Disney movies truly broke the mold, and I give it a full two thumbs up and a solid 10.0! This is definitely a MUST SEE!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fabulous for kids and adults - a MUST SEE
Review: 'Shrek' is a fabulous movie. I found myself laughing along with my kids throughout the movie. This is great fun for everyone with nothing really objectionable (unless you don't like a little bathroom humor). It also contains a subtle subplot of accepting yourself for who you really are. The animation is excellent. My only complaint is that some of the transitions seem choppy and disjointed, but it won't really matter to most people since they will be laughing too much to notice. There was a woman sitting alone next to me and my kids. She laughed watching the movie and laughed watching my kids laugh. And just wait until you see what Cinderella does to Snow White!!

Summary: take a chance with SHREK
Review: I wasn't gonna SHREK, but I was interested in all the hub-bub this movie was attracting and figured I'd check it out; and I'm glad that I did--it was a great movie! Even if you're not a fan of animation movies (as I really am not), the animation is spectacular and the story-line really is entertaining. It's a well-thought out adventure, with life-like characters and humour sprinkled througout. Only thing is, it makes so many references to other movies, and the humour can border on the adult-side in some circumstances; kids may not get it or realize what they are alluding to. Overall, a well-spent 1.5hours of entertainment for all!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fairy Tales Do Come True!
Review: I found myself laughing out loud. The story, animation and acting talents are superb! You will have to see this movie several times just to pick up on all the action happening around the main story line. The music itself is worth buying the soundtrack. It was a great movie for all ages. I can't wait until it comes out on DVD.

Summary: adorable
Review: My husband and I went to the Regal theatre to see Shrek. Now I love animation and so does my husband, I am a collector of toys and dolls and wind up tin toys. I loved everything about this movie.If you were having a bad day and went to see this I guarentee, that you would forget what put you in such a bad mood. from the time that the movie started to the very last ency tency second I never stopped laughing. Neither did my husband. It was by far the best animation that I have seen in a long long time. I will go back at least one or two more times to see it again. Sometimes I think that you have to see  a movie like this several times , because maybe you miss something the first time. I love it and I hope that It will win next year at The Academy Awards. We are both a Mike meyers fan. Eddie Murphy was as cute as a Donkey. The Dragon was cute. Thanks so much for making such a wonderful movie, not just for kids, but for the adults also. Thanks, Randy k Brosnahan

Summary: LONGING FOR THE GOOD OL' DAYS
Review: BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR SO FAR...good story, funny lines, not too dirty for kids and a whole lot of fun. Would see this one over and over. Computer annimation has come along way since Toy Story, it may spell the end of cartoon movies. Story line not too dissimilar from beauty and the beast but with a twist. Unfortunately, ugly and ugly stay together...that says more about appearance than character. Go see, you'll laugh out loud and cry a little too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Family Movie in a long time!
Review: My husband and I took our two children (3 1/2 yrs. and 9 years) to see this movie last night. We absolutely loved it! The voices were great - Eddie Murphy (who we all loved in Mulan) was a riot and Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz and John Lithgow all came through true to character. The messages of the movie come through loud and clear too - don't judge a book by its cover, and everyone has qualities to love. Along with ourselves, the entire audience was belly laughing! The only downside for some might be that there is some border-line language and bathroom humor - but WE laughed at it all and were not offended. When we left the movie, my husband and I both commented what a terrific movie it was and that we would not hesitate to see it again. While we often have said that about Disney movies, I can't think of another non-Disney cartoon that we have EVER said that about. Don't just send the kids - take them - you'll love it!
