After returning from their honeymoon and showing home movies to their friends, Shrek and Fiona learn that her parents have heard that she has married her true love and wish to invite him to their kingdom, called Far Far Away. The catch is: Fiona's parents are unaware of the curse that struck their daughter and have assumed she married Prince Charming, not a 700-pound ogre with horrible hygiene and a talking donkey pal.

Critics Consensus

It may not be as fresh as the original, but topical humor and colorful secondary characters make Shrek 2 a winner in its own right.

I took my oldest kid to watch Shrek 2 during its original theater run back in 2004. Im very excited to see how well this film still holds 20 years later. This fill is fun, beautiful and wonderful family experience. I would recommend everyone to come out to watch this film and experience it on the big screen. BRAVO!

London Evening Standard

The animation by which it stands or falls is as brilliant as ever and, though it wouldn't really be right to call it totally anti-Disney, it certainly trumps that institution for sharpness of focus, notably as far as the screenplay is concerned.

All hail the angriest rebel since James Dean. All right, he's green, pot-bellied, and has the social graces of a slug. But in terms of attitude? Peerless.

Go and see Shrek 2. You'll enjoy yourself thoroughly. Only the churlish could find any faults.

This really is a fun movie series, and hopefully we can expect more offerings to please both the kid in us as well as the cynical adult, both of whom will have no problem enjoying Shrek 2.

... As fun as the first and one of those films that's worth watching every so often because it always gets a smile out of you and the story works like a clock. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 4.5/5

AniMat's Review (YouTube)

Shrek 2 is one of the best DreamWorks features and one of the best animated sequels ever made. It takes everything that made the first film a phenomenon and amplified it to create an unforgettably hilarious experience.
