The lovably ugly green ogre returns with his green bride and furry, hooved friend in Shrek 2. The newlywed Shrek and Princess Fiona are invited to Fiona's former kingdom, Far Far Away, to have the marriage blessed by Fiona's parents--which Shrek thinks is a bad, bad idea, and he's proved right: The parents are horrified by their daughter's transformation into an ogress, a fairy godmother wants her son Prince Charming to win Fiona, and a feline assassin is hired to get Shrek out of the way. The computer animation is more detailed than ever, but it's the acting that make the comedy work--in addition to the return of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz, Shrek 2 features the flexible voices of Julie Andrews (Mary Poppins), John Cleese (Monty Python's Flying Circus), Antonio Banderas (Desperado), and Jennifer Saunders (Absolutely Fabulous) as the gleefully wicked fairy godmother. --Bret Fetzer

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - As good, or better than the orginal.
This was robbed of the Best Animated Feature by the overated "The Incredibles", and this is hilarious. You'll laugh from beginnning to end, I assure you.
Rating:  - Don't go changing, to try and please me ...
Unfortunately, this is where the series took a really negative turn for the worse. The writers seemed to not be aware of what made the previous film in this series work and concentrated on all the wrong aspects. Bluntly, they tried hard to make all the humor adult friendly isntead of kid-friendly, removing most of the juvenile and childish aspects which really made Shrek endearing to a lot of us.
The original Shrek is easily the best in the series and for a variety of reasons ... Read More
Rating: - Funny
I loved the comedy aspect of this film. The music was also good, just like the first. This, like the first Shrek, will go down in history as one of the best animated films in history.
Rating:  - This sequel isn't sweet.
Shrek 2 was such a disappointment. I loved Shrek and waited anxiously to see the sequel but I just couldn't get into this one at all. It's pretty slow and choppy, the plot this time around is pretty lame. I am sure Shrek the Third is dumb as well, keep away from this stinker!
Rating: - I guess some things must stop in order to retain value and significance...
All things considered, this is very nice, inventive, cool and by all means terrific movie! But every idea has its limits. Less you say... more it leaves to imagination. I only hope this will not become another bitten to the death sequel...
