Shrek Forever After

Like most men past their prime, Shrek has reached a mid-life crisis. He’s not as scary as he used to be, and things have become too domestic for his liking. Frankly he feels less of an ogre than he used to be. So when a shrewd Rumpelstiltskin offers him the chance to return to his former life for just a day, Shrek jumps at the chance. Clearly he hadn’t read enough fairytales otherwise he would have known that an offer like that is too good to be true.

In his new mid-life crisis reality, his love Princess Fiona doesn’t know who he is and really doesn’t find him that attractive, along with his best mate Donkey, who finds the presence of an ogre rather frightening. Add to this an overweight Puss in Boots and Shrek’s universe is completely disturbed, and he must do anything and everything to get it all back to normal. Hmm, methinks many women will relate to that storyline. As always, Shrek is not only for the kids but good fun for the grown ones too. Plus, this one is also available in 3D, making it a memorable conclusion to the franchise.

Rating: 4 outta 5.
