Very entertaining again

Rating: 8/10 (12 July 2019)

With lots of humor, great characters and excellent songs, Shrek 2 is an extremely entertaining movie. The story is fast paced enough that one not only doesn't get bored, but doesn't even realize the passing time.
And while the first Shrek movie was mostly about Shrek and Fiona, in this one it's the supporting characters that steal the show. Especially Donkey and Puss were a joy to watch, each of their reactions and interactions being a treat.
Similarly to the first movie, Shrek 2 doesn't have the depth and emotion to be a 10/10. I wish we could've seen more of Fairy godmother's story and Shrek and Fiona's relationship. I also like Shrek 1 a little bit mostly because I preferred Lord Farquaad to the prince charming and the fairy godmother.
Considering the good ending and the bad reputation of the other sequels, I think I'm going to to stop here with the Shrek saga, for fear of being disappointed with the other sequels..
