Love is an adventure.

Rating: 6/10 (28 May 2004)

This is an entertaining(but maybe less magical)sequel to the runaway animated smash and Oscar winning hit of 2001. Not down a yellow brick road, but more like over hill and dale and mountain top to far and far away. Shrek(Mike Myers), Princess Fiona(Cameron Diaz)and Donkey(Eddie Murphy)do go to Far Far Away to get the blessing of Fiona's father. Unknowing to Shrek and Fiona her parents the King(John Cleese) and Queen(Julie Andrews)have summoned the aid of Puss in Boots(Antonio Banderas)to break up the couple. Puss becomes an ally when the Fairy Godmother(Jennifer Saunders)tries her best to make Fiona fall in love with Prince Charming(Rupert Everett). I really don't think I have spoiled anything, because viewing is the actual pleasure you'll experience. This is fun for the whole family. Even trading farts in the mud is somehow funny. If you haven't seen the original it is okay to go ahead and see it now...you'll be pleased you did. Still my favorite character is Donkey.
