Pretty Good

Rating: 6/10 (8 July 2004)

It seems that virtually all cg films are more or less guaranteed to be a hit. I guess it must have been similar with some of the early Disney films. The usp of these films is that they appeal to everyone - Whether you're a snotty nosed 6 year old, a courting couple or newly retired you can't help but like these films. There's something for everybody - For the kids there's the larger than life characters and for the adults there's lots of references to other films and 'adult' humour. For everybody there's loads of laughs.
Personally I always find references to other films a bit too clever and distracting from the plot. Shrek 2 is entertaining and is guaranteed to be another box office hit and makes Shrek 3 an inevitability. It is rather good though - 7/10
