Review of Shrek

Shrek (2001)
10/10
Easily one of the best animated features ever made!
9 July 2020
Move over "Uncle Walt," this may be the funniest, most irrelevant animated feature of all time! Fantastic animation and wonderful backgrounds. When Princess Fiona walks, it looks very real, indeed! Full of wonderful well-voiced characters. Eddie Murphy as "Donkey" is fantastic and steals every scene he is in. Michael Myers IS "Shrek" and I doubt if anyone could ever replace him. It's very mischievous, as it lampoons Disneyland Theme Parks and several movies, with quotes and characters from a number of sources, including "Snow White," "Babe," Indiana Jone's collapsing bridge scene, and even Charles Dickens. (I could do several pages on this, as there are so many inside jokes and "Easter Eggs".) Enjoyed equally by both children and adults. A love-sick female dragon gets "sweet talked" and romanced by Donkey! Followed by several sequels, but "Shrek 2" is the best one. A very fractured fairy tale! An Oscar winner-Best Animated Feature.
