DVD Reviews of Shrek the Third (Widescreen Edition)

DVD Review: Go Go Away
Summary: 3 Stars

This is the third (and presumably) the final installment to a film that has swept the world and a character that has left the industry green with envy. The film begins when the ill-fated Frog King meets his demise and Shrek and Fiona are forced to take the helm and run the kingdom of Far Far Away. Prince Charming sees an opportunity to seize the thrown which was rightfully his but realizes, he alone, won't be able to overthrow the great green ogre....so he recruits the forgotten characters from the fairy tales....though the prince is met with strong resistance. While Prince Charming is trying to find recruits to join his less than noble cause, Shrek discovers that there is a lost heir to the kingdom and embarks on a mission to capture...errr...bring awareness to the young Prince Arthur.

Upon reaching Worcestershire Academy, Shrek and his friends behold a great knight atop a steed and presume this to be Arthur.....stepping on the lowly squire in the process. Fun ensues when Shrek discovers the knight is, in fact, Lancelot and the lowly squire is Artie. While Shrek chases down this future king, Charming is swept away to Far Far Away to capture its inhabitants and claim the thrown for himself.

Shrek catches Artie during a school assembly and boards his vessel back home....not so fast....the ship crashes and we meet the most entertaining character of the film - Merlin. The elderly Merlin is leaning toward the senile side of life and uses what's left of his magic to send Shrek, Cat, Donkey, and Artie back to the kingdom of Far Far Away....with minor side effects. Upon their return Prince Charming captures the gang and Shrek uses his ogre charm to convince Charming to release Artie.....this sets the stage for the women of Far Far Away to save the day.

The characters we all love from the first two films are present....except for Fairy Godmother - for obvious reasons. However, unlike the previous films Shrek the Third doesn't quite have the charm that made this such a wonderful series and they failed to develop the new characters....resulting in a three star rating.

DVD Review: good movie
Summary: 4 Stars

I love animated movies, I like this one, but not as much as I liked the first and the second movies from Shrek.

DVD Review: Shrek the third
Summary: 4 Stars

Shrek the third: This movie on its own is very good but I prefer the first 2 Shrek movies.

DVD Review: Stick with the first
Summary: 1 Stars

Nothing like the first Shrek. Boring and lame made fall sleep while I was watching. I'm someone who laughs in all movies, but Shrek third was incapable of steal a laugh from me. If you don't want to get disappointed, stick with the first, because neither the second or the third is worth your time.

DVD Review: Relatively pathetic
Summary: 1 Stars

Well, one star might be harsh, but I feel it's appropriate given the comparison to its 2 predecessors. Both Shrek and Shrek 2 were outstanding movies, and I had similar expectations for this one. But wow, what a dropoff. It felt like someone kidnapped the original writers and brought in some bad amateurs. This movie is a cheap ripoff of the first 2, with rehashed jokes and gags and a pathetically weak story. My kids didn't think it was so bad, but I felt taken advantage of when it was over. Not worth buying and not worth renting, either.

Description of Shrek the Third (Widescreen Edition)

When Shrek married Fiona the last thing he had in mind was becoming the next King of Far Far Away. But when Shrek s father-in-law King Harold suddenly croaks that is exactly what he faces. Recruiting Donkey and Puss In Boots for a new quest Shrek sets out to bring back the rightful heir to the throne. Meanwhile back in the kingdom Fiona's jilted Prince Charming storms the city with an army of fairy tale villains to seize the throne. Fiona and a band of princesses must stop him to ensure there will be a kingdom left to rule! System Requirements:Running Time: 92 Mins. Genre:?CHILDREN/FAMILY UPC:?097361179247 Manufacturer No:?117924
It's not easy being an ogre, but Shrek finds it doubly difficult for an ogre like himself to fill in for a king when his father-in-law King Harold of Far, Far Away falls ill in this third Shrek movie. Shrek's attempts to fulfill his kingly duties play like a blooper reel, with boat christenings and knighting ceremonies gone terribly wrong, and to say that Shrek (Mike Myers) is insecure about his new role is a gross understatement. When King Harold (John Cleese) passes away, Shrek sets out with Donkey (Eddie Murphy) and Puss-in-Boots (Antonio Banderas) to find Arthur (Justin Timberlake), the only heir in line for the throne besides himself. Just as Shrek sets sail to find Artie (as Arthur is more commonly known), Fiona (Cameron Diaz) shocks Shrek with the news that she's pregnant. Soon after, Prince Charming (Rupert Everett) sends Captain Hook (Ian McShane) in pursuit of Shrek and imprisons Fiona and her fellow Princesses as part of his plan to install himself as King of Far, Far Away. Shrek finds an awkward Artie jousting with his high school classmate Lancelot (John Krasinski) and, while Artie is certainly no picture of kingliness, Shrek is determined to drag him back to Far, Far Away to assume the throne. Mishaps and comedy abound, including a spell gone wrong that locks Donkey and Puss-in-Boots inside one another's bodies. While Fiona and the other Princesses prove they're anything but helpless women, Artie and Shrek battle their own fears of inadequacy in a struggle to discover their own self-worth. In the end, Shrek, Artie, and Fiona each learn a lot about their individual strengths and what truly makes each of them happy. Of course, it's the pervasive humor and wit that make Shrek the Third so side-splittingly appealing. Rated PG for some crude and suggestive humor, but appropriate for most families with children ages 6 and older. --Tami Horiuchi
