Not Shrek, Shriek

Rating: 4/10 (30 June 2005)

Poor Dakota Fanning: shriek, shriek; cry, cry; repeat, repeat. Out of the seven of us, 2 rated it GOOD, 4 rated it OKAY, and one guy said he'd "like HALF his money back."
This was NOT the summer blockbuster we were hoping for. It was anti-climactic; more gross than scary. I felt that the "terrorism" thread was just a cheap shot.
If you favorite movies of all time are: DAY AFTER TOMORROW, MATRIX REVOLUTIONS and TITANIC (without the romantic couple), then this will be a real treat for you. If you almost anyone else over the age of 17, you'll probably find MR. AND MRS. SMITH a better entertainment.
