Shrek Forever After (2010)

just watch it!

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Unlike Shrek the Third, This has some funny jokes and a better villain.

'Shrek Forever After (2010)' is better than the third outing purely because it has some style and a story that takes a risk by really turning things inside out. This is a move that tells you all you need to know about the longevity of this meme-destined franchise. The flick makes for an interesting watch that isn't always successful but is usually appreciated. It's not all that funny, though there are smile-worthy moments and the cast is good once again, but the 'what if' narrative provides a few chances to play with expectation even if it is all predictably conventional and ultimately relatively cliché. 6/10

Warning: the following dialogue, taken from this movie, is not suitable for children and contains spoilers. You have been warned. "S-Shrek-chan… I don't think I'm ready.. I've never been with an ogre before" "It's okay laddie" Shrek said in an understanding tone. "We're safe in mah swamp. No one has to know"Jesus thought long and hard about this. His stiff member was reminding him how long it had been since he was with a woman. However, in the back of his mind he knew Shrek was just using him to satisfy his ogre needs. Though, a part of him wanted to be used. A part of him needed to be used."Oh Shrek… Can you sing that song I like to set the mood first?" Jesus asked hopefully."Of course laddie. After all I did study opera at Julliard."Shrek began singing with his angelic voice a haunting tune that had been passed down among the swamp folk for generations. "Hey now… You're an allstar. Get your game on. Go play. Hey now, you're a rock star. Get the show on. Get paid. All that glitters is gold. Only shooting stars break the mold""Clean up on aisle my panties" Jesus said seductively. He went in for the kiss.Shrek stopped singing and they shared a passionate kiss but Shrek broke away."When are you going to tell your father that we're together?" Shrek asked concerned."I..I don't know… Can't we just make love?""You need to come out to your father Jesus… Better out than in I always say""Shrek-chan please stop… I don't want to think about this right now!"Just then they heard a knock on the door. Shrek got up to answer it, and was confused. There was no one there, or so he thought…"I'm right here!" Barry Bee shouted. He was so small since he's a bee that Shrek couldn't see him at first."What are yeh doin' in mah swamp?!?" Shrek asked forcefully."I'm sorry sir! I heard your singing from across the river and wanted to see where such a magnificent voice came from!""Shrek-chan, who is at the door?" Jesus asked as he approached the two.

The King and Queen was about to make a deal with Rumpelstiltskin when Fiona was saved by Shrek. He's bitter at the happily-ever-after state of affairs. Shrek and Fiona have 3 kids and he's struggling with domestication. He's tired and wants to go back to scaring the villagers. Rumpelstiltskin tricks Shrek into a deal to give him the day he was born. Shrek discovers the new world is ruled by Rumpelstiltskin, witches are running things, and ogres are hunted. He and Fiona have never met. When the day expires, he will never exist. There is an exit clause in True Love's Kiss.The start is a little bit slow. It's grumpy with a tired Shrek. New character Rumpelstiltskin isn't the most visually interesting. It does take a touching turn. It's a good 'It's a Wonderful Life' story. It has a warm message and the gang is back.
