Unfortunately, there will be more...

This is official: Dreamworks had ran out ideas.
When I write this review, I already watched their latest animation feature, Kung Fu Panda. I found Kung Fu Panda fun, while not a Classic. But compared to Shrek The Third, Kung Fu Panda was a Masterpiece!
Shrek The Third was not only bad, but it was insulting your intelligence. The pop cultural references was handled with a horrible taste, the jokes were awful and makes you wanna punch the character because it was too stupid. Shrek, who supposed to be an annoying but lovable character, became just very annoying in this movie.
The plot - well, if there was one - was Shrek cannot bear the truth that he has to be King of Far Far Away. And there is one prince that could bear the throne. Later we were introduced to Artie - nickname for Arthur, I suppose - whose Fiona cousin. Shrek was trying so hard convincing Artie to take the throne and be a King. Meanwhile when Shrek on the mission, Charming - the outcast prince - try to overthrown Far Far Away.
Well, if it was intriguing enough for you to find, I guess you could take a look at a movie. The main story was sooooo predictable and repeatable it was turn up to be boring. It seems from Shrek, Shrek 2 and now Shrek The Third, Shrek was nothing but the ugly Ogre that have nothing to do. He couldn't handle any responsibilities! If in the first Shrek you feel a slight of hope that this ugly ogre could make his way with Fiona. In Shrek 2, it kinda annoying but we could at least care for the relationship between Shrek and Fiona. In Shrek The Third, it just that you wish they are dead so the series can stop.
Really, this movie was a big disappointment. And what makes me more sad, that this movie scores big in USA. Really, guys? Shrek the Third? If you're not more selective than this kind of junk will always makes it's way to your theater. Do you want it to happened? I heard Dreamworks already making the forth and fifth movie. And if people still come to that, I guarantee they will make Shrek until tenth...
Just avoid this kind of junk. Give them a lesson to respect us as a viewer next timeÂ…
