| Shrek 2 |
|
admin writes, "What happens in a fairy tale after the ending? Do they really live happily ever after or are the real problems just starting after the marriage? Well, Shrek 2 starts with the happy ending after Shrek 1 (with a short recap and the beginning of their honeymoon) and goes on with Shrek and Fiona visiting Fiona's parents to get their blessings and attend a ball."

From start to end the movie has absolutely *great* music, tons of references to other movies (Alien, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Ariel, Ghostbusters, what- ever (see the references in IMDB)) and a new twist on zig fairy tales. It's one of the few sequels that is as good or better than the original (like Alien 2, Back to the Future 2 and a few others), that every person from ages min to max can enjoy and it actually conveys a very good message. In the classic fairy tale the beautiful princess gets the charming prince, which is nice, unless you aren't beautiful or charming. So in this movie, the princess actually choses her love instead of the charming prince and they chose to stay orges instead of beautiful humans which is a nice twist. Hmmm ... and I don't want to sound strange, but Orge-Fiona actually looked nicer than the human one - must be the way she smiled and that she seems fun to be with.
So, I hope there is a Shrek 3 ... and hopefully again with Puss-in-Boots (he was sooooo cute :-) sniff).
