What a blast.

Rating: 10/10 (30 May 2001)

"Shrek" is by far the best family film to come out in a while, though I don't think this is really a family film. In fact, children will most likely not get most if not all of the references to past Disney movies, like "Sleepy Beauty" and "Snow White" to name a few.
Another reason this isn't really a family film is the surprising amount of swearing for a 'PG' rated movie. This movie is however quite funny for those who are willing to go and see it. Mike Myers is excellent as Shrek and Eddie Murphy is superb as the hyperactive Donkey. It's a great film, that should please just about any movie fan. ***1/2 out of 4 stars.
