RATING

 

First things first - You MUST STAY DURING THE CREDITS !!! One of the BEST and CUTEST scenes hapens 2 minutes after credits roll. Only 7 people were left in the cinema when we saw this scene. TOO FUNNY !!! You can leave after Donkey says goodbye. There aren't any more surprises after this one.

OK, I guess you are wondering...Is it better then Shrek ? In my opinion...NO. Is it worth your ticket admission...Absolutely YES. and it's a good thing too, because the lady in front of us was wearing I swear...her ENTIRE perfume bottle. God it stank so much, I felt like I was in a department store. Unplug your nose next time lady LOL.

Shrek, Fiona and Donkey return for the sequel and are joined by new characters, Fairy Godmother, Prince Charming, Fiona's parents and the scene stealing Puss N Boots. I sure hope they will make a plush version of Puss in his sad face expression. Too Cute and Too funny LOL. Antonio banderas does a great job. When I buy the DVD I will be rewinding the Hairball cough over and over LOL.

The magic and awe of Shrek's visuals don't apply as much in this movie. At least not to me or my friend Genevieve. Not to say that the animation isn't amazing. It's just that Shrek was such a groundbreaker in animation style and visual quality. Part of that magic has dissapeared. It still is at times extremely beautiful and you will find yourself laughing a lot. If you are a movie buff even more so with all the jokes refering to common scenes such as Flashdance, Ghostbusters, Spiderman, Mission Impossible, Beauty and the Beast...too many to remember. One of the all time best is the parody of COPS. You will just pee in your pants when you see that scene :D

Oh oh...and Pinocchio. He must have the best cameo in the movie :) Make sure to check his wardrobe during the breakout LOL.

With The World After Tomorrow coming up soon, the Summer Movie season is in full swing. If you have time to catch only ONE film this weekend, make sure it's Shrek 2 and NOT Troy. You'll thank me later :P

Well worth seeing, especially if you are a fan of the original. And definetaly on my Christmas DVD list.
