Lacks Shrekness...

Rating: 6/10 (5 January 2008)

The first two movies proved to be excellent family entertainment (outstanding first one - good sequel). "Shrek" has always been a very clever crossover cuisine cinema of fables.
One could expect a lot for the new sequel, but high expectations are easy to disappoint. While watching "Shrek 3" I had to think of those Disney TV Sequels: it feels like a reunion of friends... far more than like a good story. After all I was wondering what sense (besides making money) it makes to release sequel after sequel, year after year... why the hell did they spent that much money on a movie thats so far away from having the quality fans deserve and got used to !?
In a short: only routine Shrek sequel that fails to meet the high quality standards of the series... perhaps kids will like it.
