good time pass with a couple of classic scenes....

Rating: 7/10 (18 July 2008)

Many people thought that Shrek's charming dialogue and witty actions were held in abeyance with this sequel. Shrek did not spend enough time being an ogre, but an irresponsible person that can neither take charge of the kingdom nor face fatherhood. Since Shrek wants to desperately leave Fiona's Kingdom and go back to his "vermin-filled shack (the swamp)," he decides to abdicate the thrown to Arthur, a distant relative to the royal family of Far Far Away who is now the acknowledged loser of a medieval high schoolBut some complications ensue and once again we are introduced to Prince Charming who can barely even pose as an ostensible threat. The terror faced by their kingdom is used to arouse laughter, with strange accidents and weird villains. But I have to say that the funniest part of the movie is when the Frog King dies. Merlin was also hilarious. With that being said, although Shrek the Third is not as good as the previous two movies in the series, it does evoke good laughter. Definitely not a failure.
