Shrek

THE GREATEST FAIRY TALE NEVER TOLD.

It ain't easy bein' green -- especially if you're a likable (albeit smelly) ogre named Shrek. On a mission to retrieve a gorgeous princess from the clutches of a fire-breathing dragon, Shrek teams up with an unlikely compatriot -- a wisecracking donkey.

    An emotional rollercoaster. The soundtrack was beautiful and really added to the experience.

  • Eleanor Trujillo
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.

    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.
