Film Review - Shrek 2
Monday, June 28th, 2004Shrek 2 brings back our old favourites Shrek, Donkey and Princess whatshername for another adventure. Some of the secondary characters make an appearance too, and we see the introduction of Puss In Boots, very well characterised by Antonio Banderas.
Shrek was funny, original, well paced and flowing. Shrek 2 is most of those thing, but lacks some of the originality and ease of the first one. I think the laughter was a bit forced at times, and it came across that they were just trying a little bit too hard to make the film work.
It is still good, it just does not compare brilliantly to the first one. Worth a look.
