Definitely not as good as the first two

Rating: 3/10 (20 July 2007)

As other users have commented, the story has a weak plot and is just not funny. I actually didn't understand some parts of the plot such as why Arthur was angry with Shrek for lying to him that he was meant to be heir - not Arthur. Another bit i didn't understand was why Wostershire was a school. Surely its a county and therefore not small enough to be a school - I was wondering if there is some inter textual reference which i hadn't spotted but I'm not so sure. It could just be a random name picked for a school.
Obviously there were some funny bits - but the directors didn't build on a lot of them. for example the queen smashing her head through a wall. that could have been so much more funny if more had been made of it.
Overall i wouldn't recommend this film to those who enjoyed the first 2. i hope there isn't a fourth.
