Happily ever after never seemed so far far away when a trip to meet the in-laws turns into a hilariously twisted adventure for Shrek and Fiona. With the help of ever-faithful Donkey, Shrek takes on the potion-brewing Fairy Godmother, pompous Prince Charming, and infamous ogre-killer Puss In Boots.

Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
The movie is obvious, but consistently entertaining and animated in DreamWorks's "realistic" digitized style.

fresh:
Can an ogre live happily ever after? Can fairy tale characters be content with their fairy tale lives? Can an Oscar-winning animated success generate a successful sequel? To all these questions, Shrek 2 is happy to answer yes, yes and yes.

fresh:
This second edition of DreamWorks's Oscar-winning ogre opus may not match the original for, well, originality, but it honors the prime injunction governing sequels: To thine own characters be true.

rotten:
The lovable characters remain, but they never do much of interest in a sequel that's safely above average but superfluous.

fresh:
A rare example of a sequel that's better than the original.
