A new classic

Rating: 9/10 (2 July 2001)

(no spoilers)
This was a movie I completely enjoyed. I heard quite a bit about the movie, but was leery about seeing a movie that was intended for kids, "but adults will enjoy it also"... My resistance in this case was futile... it was the best $8 I've spent so far this year - NO WONDER it has done so well.
Shrek is going to be around a long time. Move over Mickey, Donald, Bugs, Pooh, Buzz... you have company! Many years from now, I'm sure I'll be dusting off the DVD of this movie, and show it to my grandkids, and laugh right along with them, all over again.
Excellent visuals, well-developed characters, a great story, and incredibly smooth, flowing dialog... a classic is born.
If you haven't, go see it... its not to be missed!
