Excellent

Rating: 10/10 (27 December 2004)

I was waiting ages to see this film. I missed it in the cinema and I was almost kicking myself to do so. So it was great when my sister received Shrek 2 for Christmas this year. I immediately watched it and then re-watched it. Then re-watched it again. The obvious fairytale story line is great and original, being a mix of lots of other stories and lots of new bits with a typical Shrek twist. All the time there are little bits that are great. Little touches all throughout the film add a little extra charm and fun which are both already in abundance. The characters are all lovable, even Puss-in-Boots and I normally hate cats but he's just so sweet! All the fun builds up to a sad and serious middle part and stays that way up until the end of the film where suddenly, everything is all OK again (the wonder of fairy tales). The music fits the storyline perfectly and adds a little extra to an already great film. Shrek 2 is sure to keep adults and children amused and entertained with its pure excellence.
