Excellent second part

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2004)

"Second parts are always not good as the first one." I don't know who exactly said this, but certainly, he/she wasn't talking about Shrek 2.
The freshness of the characters (Hopefully, it's the same or better than in the 1st movie),as well as the new characters, make this movie really entertaining and hilarious until the last minute.
The new talking-animal introduced "Puss in Boots", it's incredibly well interpreted by Antonio Banderas, who, at least from my point of view, takes some of the "major figure" from Donkey(Eddie Murphy), which was also really funny, though it didn't have the presence of the 1st movie.
The movie, as the previous one, also includes some really well-thought gags, which give the movie that "something", which doesn't let you move from your seat while you're watching it.
It is a mix of good animation, humor and a love story, which, amazingly, brings up another excellent production from Dreamworks Studios. I can't wait to see the 3rd part..
I strongly suggest that, if you hadn't have the chance to watch this movie, take two hours to rent or buy it and I can assure that it'll not be worthless at all.
