Animation will never be the same.

Rating: 10/10 (27 August 2003)

Animation has taken some great leaps in recent years. Because of
the Simpsons, it has become more popular and taken more
seriously as "more than kids' stuff" because of computer
technology, it has become quality art instead of just flipping
post-its. Shrek was a very groundbreaking film in 2001. Because of it's
engaging storyline, beautiful plot, funny, multi-faceted charactars
and impressive animation, it finally broke the barrier that animation
was not just cartoons and thin plots, but that it could be taken
seriously in a movie, so seriously in fact that because of Shrek, the
Best Animated Film Oscar category was created. I love Shrek. It's my favourite movie. I've defenitely seen better
films, but Shrek remains number # 1 with me. I can't wait for the
sequel!
