Shrek The Third

[ozonez]

As i predicted this is not a good film. Its an un-neccesary sequel which just shits out more of the over-used Shrek shite.

The Writers seem to have decided that the audience have had enough of Shrek, Donkey and Puss in Boots and decided to cram as many other fantasy characters into the film and make them "comedic" In the other films they may have added about 3 or 4 other side-characters to the story to spice it up. But in these they seem to have added about 50-100 new characters. The charm from the other 2 shrek films (mainly Shrek and co kicking arse using strange methods i.e. the competition to rescue Fiona and Puss in shrek 2) is also gone. Any point in this film (apart from one very boring fight scene) when shrek is confronted with men in armor he backs down and simply gives in.

WHICH MAKES NO SENSE!

Shrek in Shrek 1 kicked ass in that competition he surely could kick some ass in this film (he doesn't and is later held to the floor by...one chain which by the way he manages he breaks....ages after he's chained to it)

you would expect most of the laughs to come from the main character but because the writers have changed him from a selfish nasty orge to some twat who can't put up a fight and moans alot, the laughs come from lesser-characters. Like the ginger-bread man and the frog-king. Also the fighting skills from Fiona are nowhere to be seen...oh and her friends gain the power to call animals from the forest to attack walking trees.

SPOILERS BUT READ IT IF U WANT 1 GOOD REASON ON WHY U SHOULDN'T WASTE MONEY ON THIS FILM.




















Everyone gets captured...the queen shows she has some fighting skill, breaks down a wall with her head...twice. They go try and rescue Shrek, they get to where he is...then get caught again...thus elinating the point of the rescue. The film ends with Arthur telling the villains they don't have to be evil because society thinks they are evil. The villains agree. the end.

I think Shrek is way overhyped. I only saw the first silm. It was decent but not hoping for a sequel or anything like that.

I heard fiona turns feminist in the film and does some rescuing with a band of princesses

almost always the 3rd installment is always the weakest e.g spider man 3 but an exception to this would be lord of the rings:the return of the king because that was the best out of the 3 films

from what you said ozonez.......i would of expected better from shrek

Its true, its painful to watch. Its a "Charlies Angels" spoof but with 5 instead of 3.

ROTK was good...apart from the overly boring ending which carried on...and on...and on.

Well the main theme of the story is "Shrek finds out Fiona is pregnant, gets freaked out and spends the entire story going on an adventre dicovering that being a dad is fine" <That story attracts noone, not even women. No man is gonna watch the film next to his pregnant wife shaking with fear and come out all relaxed goin "EVERYTHINGS GREAT I LOVE MY UNEXPECTED BABY.

SO is not a good film...I have to admit I liked Shrek 1 and 2..didn't expect a third and now that I've read what is it about...I'm not seeing this film..I was planning to watch it but better not.....and I guess that I don't like this kinds of films anymore *coughtoomuchFF*

I think they took this franchise to far. I liked 1 and 2 but I dont really like 3 so I dont really want to see it.

[Erika]

[Alphonse]

I only got up to the bit when Arthur was having a rant about being king to his classmates.
I left the theatre after that.
It was just so boring.
They should of just left it at 2.
