Who here has seen it?
I took Zoe, who's picture I shall gratuitously post below
, to see it on Saturday. I loved Shrek 1, but did not get to see it on the big screen. We have the video, so watching it every other weekend more than makes up for that. I will be purchasing the Shrek 2 video when it comes out, also.
This film picks up exactly where Shrek 1 left off, and the laughs start there. I'm not talking about little chuckles and titters to oneself, either, but vocal belly laughs; flesh wobbling, eye watering, fits of giggles that take you by surprise. I did not expect to be so delighted by this film.
The animation was rich with colour and movement, and the detail on each of the characters must have been painstaking for those at DreamWorks to achieve. The jokes were visual as much as they were aural, and I don't think a single Brothers Grimm fairy tale was left out. The movie as a whole was pure genius.
I'm having trouble trying not to post any spoilers for those who have yet to see it, and so I shall leave it there. If you have not seen it, go see it. You will not be disappointed.
