Pros: Highly entertaining, fantastic animation, suitable for pretty much everyone.
Cons: Over reliance on 'gross-out' humour
After seeing the previews for this in theatres i was very excited, hoping to see a clever film with large doses of self referential comedy, fairy tale irony and comedy that wasn't "dumbed down". Did i get this? Well sort of...
On the first two...

Pros: Shrek is humorous, easy to follow, great music, and awesome ending.
Cons: Not wanting to leave the movie to go to the bathroom.
Shrek has to be one of the very best movies I have seen in some time. This movie offers wonderful comedy interaction, as well as a terrific sound track.
Shrek keeps you glued to your seat, and anticipating the next scene, unlike...

Pros: Funny, cute, and full of old characters.
Cons: None that I can think of.
I am a fantasy fan. No doubt about it. I played D&D as a child, I write my own fantasy novels and plays, and I try to see every “fantasy” movie in stock. When I heard about “Shrek” I dearly wanted to see it. A computer animated fairy tale. Even though I...

Pros: Wonderful animation, funny, heartwarming
Cons: A little too much inappropriate ("potty") humor for my liking
I normally wait for video or pay-per-view, but I'm an animation junkie and I heard that Shrek was a technically amazing movie. It is. If for no other reason than to look at it, you should go to see the movie. You'll be surprised with the quality of...

Pros: Great animation, story line, and humor
Cons: Some jokes may not be appropriate for younger kids.
Shrek - best picture of the year?
That seems like a huge possibility right now. Dreamworks' newest three-dimensional flick, Shrek, has everything. With acting heavyweights Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, John Lithgow, and Eddie Murphy, it seemed...

Pros: Animation incredible, voice talent( excpet Eddie Murphy) strong
Cons: Humor poor, plot weak and stupid, Eddie Murphy
I had my doubt about this movie before I went in, but I was persuaded by a lot of my friends that it was a good movie. So, with a few hours to spare, myself and my Significant other went and saw this movie.
Lets get the good out of the way now...

Pros: Witty, humorous, well-animated
Cons: some humor not appropriate for young children
Shrek is one of the most originally funny movies I've seen in a long time. Part comedy, part parody, Shrek zinged one-liners with such speed and abandon that I almost hurt myself laughing in some scenes. Building upon the fairy-tale foundation of the...

Pros: Extremely hilarious for people of all ages
Cons: no entertaining after first go
Shrek, the first good animation ever to be made, has got to be one of the most hilarious movie I have ever seen. Everyone has to admit that they all had a good chuckle. Loaded with jokes from every age range, this movie will even have teens...

Pros: Pokes fun at disney from beginning to end!!
Cons: A bit predictable, but most movies are.
Shrek is the newest movie-mania. It's even bigger than the Titanic, and has earned even more on video and DVD release than in theatres (Yes, it is possible.). If you don't know about it, you've been living under a rock... a very isolated rock in the...

Pros: Mr. Eddie Murphy as the world's first Donkey with soul. Redefines 'Dragon-Lady'
Cons: Loses appeal after first viewing.
My usual justification for going to see any animated feature is that I'm reviewing it for the kids.
However with Shrek, it became quickly apparent to me that I was in for a rollicking good time, but that my kids weren't going to be seeing it...

Pros: Truly a delightful movie!
Cons: Much more intended for adults than the kids
When I thought about going to see an animated movie called Shrek- I was not sure that I wanted to do this. However, I do not think I have laughed as hard in five years at the movies! What a delightful tale that these folks have woven!
This is a...

Pros: Great voice talents and animation; clever parodies
Cons: Can't "auto-rewind" in the theaters to watch again!
O.K., for those who prefer to cut to the chase:
SEE IT! SEE IT! SEE IT!
If laughter truly does make you live longer, Dreamworks' latest triumph is sure to add a few days to your longevity.
In the effort not to spoil any...

Pros: Lowbrow humor (what else do you expect with Eddie Murphy?)
Cons: Romance is slightly formulaic even for fairy tales
Shrek (Mike Myers) is an ogre who lives in the middle of the forest. For reasons I will not reveal, he leaves his habitat, meets up with a donkey named (duh) Donkey (Eddie Murphy), and they end up in the kingdom of Duloc. The King of Duloc is short (in...

Pros: This is the kind of movie Walt Disney used to make, not todays Disney Inc.
Cons: Some off color humor.
Do you remember the classic Walt Disney movies? Movies like Fantasia, Bambi, and Lady and the Tramp? They are nothing like the Saturday morning, Japanamation, repetitive, feature length dreck they are doing nowdays. If you like the classic Walt Disney...

Pros: Mesmerizing animation, fabulous plot, wonderful family movie
Cons: Some very mild bad language, coarse humor
I loved this movie more than my three-year-old, but now that I'm watching it almost every night, I have to wonder if the charm will wear off. So far, I love it just as much as before I memorized half the dialog. Shrek is a likeable ogre - a grumpy...
