Review of Shrek the Third (2007) by Rox22 — 17 Dec 2013
This is by far the weakest of the Shrek movies. While it does have some strengths, this movie feels more like a giant step back. Even the performances aren't to the same standard as before. Many of the jokes and themes are just rehashed from the first two movies.
What really kills this movie is the fact that it has so much potential. It introduces plenty of new ideas and element, and yet they are barely touched upon and used properly. It's seems the writing crew had far too many ideas on the table, tried to get them all into the movie, and put the focus on the familiar stuff, rather than the new stuff. A shame as this movie could have been better with a more competent writing team.
Overall:
While it is not terrible, Shrek the third is really just a big disappointment It could have been so much more and completely wastes the material it presents.
