“Shrek the Third” Movie Review

“Shrek 3″ Plot Summary

When his new father-in-law, King Harold falls ill, Shrek is looked at as the heir to the land of Far, Far Away. Not one to give up his beloved swamp, Shrek recruits his friends Donkey and Puss in Boots to install the rebellious Artie as the new king. Princess Fiona, however, rallies a band of royal girlfriends to fend off a coup d’etat by the jilted Prince Charming.

Funny With a Great Message

When Fiona’s father and King of Far Far Away passes away, the clumsy Shrek becomes the immediate successor of the throne. However, Shrek decides to find the legitimate heir Artie in a distant kingdom with his friends Donkey and Puss in Boots to be able return to his beloved house in the swamp with the pregnant Fiona. Meanwhile, the envious and ambitious Prince Charming joins the villains of the fairy tales plotting a coup d’etat to become the new king.’Shrek the Third’ is very funny, having a great message in the end and completely underrated in IMDb. There are many unfair reviews and I really do not understand what these users have seen to dislike in this animation. There are many new characters from the fairy tales, but all of them has space along the plot, in at least one scene, and I liked, for example, the Cyclops with his beautiful daughter or the lines of Captain Hook just to mention two of them. I saw a version dubbed in Portuguese and the dialogs are excellent. The soundtrack is a plus and I loved ‘Immigrant Song’ and ‘Baraccuda’ in the attack of the heroines. My vote is eight

Title (Brazil): ‘Shrek Terceiro’ (‘Shrek The Third’)

    “Shrek 2″ Movie Review

    “Shrek 2″ Plot Summary

    Princess Fiona’s parents invite her and Shrek to dinner to celebrate her marriage. If only they knew the newlyweds were both ogres.

    Just as good as the first

    Shrek 2 is a very entertaining sequel and a good family film. This film follows Shrek and Fiona who had just came back from there honeymoon and Fiona’s parents, the King and Queen of Far Far Away (get the joke) invite them to visit the kingdom. Unfortunately they don’t know that Fiona was turned into a ogre, and not back into her human form. Fiona’s dad was shocked, wanting Fiona to marry Prince Charming (this was hinted at in the first film), and admits to have Shrek assassinated by Puss-in-Boots. Shrek then tries to make himself into the man Fiona wants and at the same time Prince Charming and the Fairy Godmother plot to get Fiona to fall in love with Prince Charming

    This film works on many levels, it has a decent story and makes fun and uses many aspects of famous fairy tales. The Fairy Godmother is the main villain in this film which is a good twist. The film also parodies many things that could appeal to adults, such as an Alien parody, and there are more general references to films like Lord of the Rings, Mission Impossible and Indiana Jones. There are also cultural references such as Starbucks and a parody of Hollywood. There is a good supporting cast to the film. I liked Antonio Banderas as Puss-in-Boots, Julie Andrews, John Cleese and Rupert Everett. I also thought that it was a very good move to cast Jennifer Saunders as the Fairy Godmother. In the British version we got Jonathan Ross and Kate Thornton in the film which I thought was pretty fun. The animation of the film is top-notch and is possibly the best around. It is the most realistic in style and some of the little details are really good, such as seeing the freckles on Fiona’s face. The also has fun little Easter Eggs and need to watch the film again to notice them, such as in the beginning of the film the Big Bad Wolf was reading a ‘Pork Illustrated’ magazine. I enjoyed the creation of Puss-in-Boots as a character and thought he was great. A little sidenote was that he looked liked my cat who was a young kitten at the time and thought it was a fun coincidence. My only problem of the film was the occasional fart joke, but it is aimed for children, so I can understand why they done it

    Shrek 2 is a very good, but it was a shame that the third on was no where need as good.

    “My Best Friend’s Wedding” Movie Review

    “My Best Friend’s Wedding” Plot Summary

    When a woman’s long-time friend says he’s engaged, she realizes she loves him herself… and sets out to get him, with only days before the wedding.

    Good romantic comedy that will make you laugh, possibly cry, touch you, and make you feel warm inside

    MY BEST FRIEND’S WEDDING, in my opinion, is a good romantic comedy that will make you laugh, possibly cry, touch you, and make you feel warm inside. If you ask me, Julia (Roberts), Dermot (Mulroney), and Cameron (Diaz) dazzle as a jealous food critic, a wandering sports writer, and a sunny-natured heiress! My favorite parts are when Julianne (Julia Roberts) chases after Michael (Dermot Mulroney) as he’s chasing after Kimmy (Cameron Diaz) and when Kimmy and Julianne yell at each other in the ladies’ room at Comiskey Park. The one thing I really hated about this movie was Cameron Diaz’ singing. My friend, Brandon, covered his ears when she sang ‘I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself.’ No offense, Cameron, but, you sang better in THE MASK. In conclusion, there is a moral to this story, and, that moral is, ‘Never take your relationship with your boyfriend or girlfriend for granted.’

    “Stardust” Movie Review

    “Stardust” Plot Summary

    In a countryside town bordering on a magical land, a young man makes a promise to his beloved that he’ll retrieve a fallen star by venturing into the magical realm.

    Magical and fantastical

    There are not many movies around that have given me a feeling like Stardust did all throughout the course of the film. As magically fairy-tale-like as The Princess Bride, Stardust is most definitely the most wonderful fantasy spectacle of the 2000’s as well as the 1990’s. Exciting, hilarious and equipped with wonderful imagery as well as unforgettable characters, Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert DeNiro’s especially, I challenge anyone to watch this movie without a smile. From the first ten minutes of the film you know perfectly well how it will end, but it is the journey and not the destination that enthralls the viewer from start to finish

    Ten stars, and not a decimal less.
