Shrek Forever After

This is a great film and is much better than Shrek the Third, but is not as good, in my opinion as the original two.

The premise of the film is easy, Shrek makes a pact with the devil (Rumplestiltskin), Shrek obviously doesn’t read the small print and he ends up in deep trouble needing to win back Fionas heart for true loves kiss before sunset – echoes of the writers returning to the original loud and clear. What follows is a classic escapade through thick and thin in true Shrek fashion, comparisons to toy story £ are ineveitable - and for me the gag reel in Shrek is better, there are more gags and laugh out loud moments, but the look and the feel of the film is below that of Toy story 3.

Still a good movie though and a fitting end to the franchise, though puss in boots should definitely be getting his own spin-off.

3.5 stars
