A money making exercise

Rating: 2/10 (25 September 2010)

The first Shrek movies were full of fun and adventure. The third film was disappointing and it seemed it was time to put the franchise to bed. The recent explosion in 3d movies obviously made the production company see an opportunity to make some money from a 3d Shrek instalment.
The biggest problem with Shrek forever after is where to go with the franchise. The opening sequence of the movie see's shrek in domestic bliss but longing for his former life. The stupor is a fairly good analogy for the film itself. Shrek is taken to an alternative world where he hasn't met any of his friends, but although there are some good moments you long for the adventure of the first 2 Shrek films.
