Not a step up

Rating: 6/10 (29 May 2010)

Well it wasn't bad and I got a kick out of this one than Shrek The Third and was funnier and I just grown to love these characters and the place they call home. It's not the classic like the first two especially the second one and it just wasn't all that memorable. This story has been done to death now and is no longer fresh anymore and sometimes it came off ass generic and the 3D aspect didn't do much for me just took more of my money and it just didn't have much heart and spunk this time. I will have to say that the star of this animated feature will have to go to Rumpelstiltskin because he stole every scene and brought some kind of life to it but everything else seemed rushed, forced but it still had a good soundtrack again. For having final chapter in its title it doesn't seem like their story is complete and the ending felt very anti climatic so I have a feeling that this isn't the last time we will see these characters on the big screen. Overall it's a good film to take the whole family to but anyone hoping to see a sequel that is just as good as the first two shreks look elsewhere. Wait for DVD. More of a 2.5 out of 5 stars.
