Shrek belongs in that odd category of movies that I thoroughly enjoy while watching, would drop everything and watch again if the opportunity offered but are otherwise eminently forgettable and not worthy of purchase. Others in this category are films like Dave, the Toy Stories, and most Disney cartoons.
They’re great movies. Tons of fun. Lots of laughs. But they’re just popcorny bubblegummy stuff.
This particular iteration of the franchise, however, is worth a look just for Snow White’s Zeppelin moment.
Now that I might pay to see again.
