When King Harold suddenly
croaks, Shrek (Mike Myers) learns he will have to rule
the land of Far, Far Away, unless he can find a suitable
heir to the throne. The most-promising candidate is
Princess Fiona's (Cameron Diaz) cousin Artie (Justin
Timberlake), a teenage slacker in a medieval
high-school. Shrek and his trusted companions, Donkey
(Eddie Murphy) and Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas), set
out to bring Artie back but find their mission is a
bigger challenge than they expected.

overpopulated, even the ha-ha so-called
adult jokes have grown stale and
predictable."

series still favors the jokes..."

the comic energy of the first brilliant

second."

"...a
marginally paranoid but enjoyable comedy
rooted in the psychological terror
associated with entering adulthood."

"Much of
the bite and a good deal of the wit of
the first two films are missing here."

"...the
torrential downpour of jokes in Shrek
and Shrek 2 has dried up to an
intermittent drizzle, a comedy London."

A.O. Scott |
"...more
energetic and more relaxed (than
Shrek 2)..."

ReelViews
James Berardinelli |
"...a
classic example of a movie that exists
because its predecessor made a lot of
money."

"Who wrote
this thing, Dr. Phil?"

designed to please impatient parents
just as much as children."

"...an
innocuous, mildly entertaining,
instantly forgettable hodgepodge that's
certainly not worth rushing out to see."
