BobT.Jun 3, 20043Shrek 2 is a lame kids movie that adults think is good because they think the jokes about Sir Justin, Starbucks, the honeymoon etc are witty. My kids barely laughed. There are very few sight gags and physical humor that kids really enjoy. The parents I was with all loved it.

SergeR.Jun 4, 20040This movie, as well as its predecessor, is overrated. I'd rather see the animated figures in the comics section of my local newspaper, that the awkward, 3D animaion in this film.

JamesC.May 21, 20043A terrible waste of time. If this is what counts for adult/kiddie entertainment, I'll take to staring at a blank wall. Unfunny, boring, and the five people who wrote this dreck should be locked in a room for the rest of their lives watching this movie. Then they they'll know the pain I suffered watching it. Be warned it's a DUD!

[Anonymous]Jan 9, 20064A bit funny, but the first one it's that good that leaves Shrek 2 in the dust.

AdamL.May 24, 20041This movie is horrible. Critics are insane. I loved the first Shrek, but the jokes here are just stupid, and dirty, and who is this movie for? Stupid kids or stupid adult parents? The only reason i kept this from a 0, is because of the few snickers I got from Puss N Boots.

80Its cleverness and its good heart enable it to overcome a slow start, which is how all good fairy tales end.

88So gorgeously animated and so thoroughly entertaining for all ages that only an ogre would complain it's not quite as fresh as the original.

60Some of the buckshot hits its target: Shrek's second sidekick, assassin-turned-comrade Puss in Boots, is voiced by Antonio Banderas as an outrageously mock-dramatic Spaniard with most of the pig-pile screenplay's best toss-offs.
