A must-see sequel !

Rating: 8/10 (20 May 2004)

Hi there !
Well, I just come back from seeing Shrek 2. Like all of us would say, a sequel is always something you won't be quite sure, especially a comedy (forget about LOTR, that WAS written, as Harry Potter). But Shrek 2 has got some new type of jokes, and some touching moments. There was more about joking on the idea of falsified faerie stories on the first, but this one brings new jokes. A little repeating from the animated series movies, but well done. And the story isn't boring, as most of the sequels does. It's actually quite entertaining and the pieces are well placed.
Well, there's not only good sides. It misses a little something. The first was about the surprise of the ogre-thing. The second uses it, but too much.
And a little commentary to finish: what a « panachée » voice for Puss-In-Boots. A Spanish cat ! And he's so cute with his big black eyes !
8/10
