Movie Review Shrek The Third

Movie Review: Shrek The Third By Peter Sciretta/May 18, 2007 1:08 am EST Okay, let’s be honest. The Shrek series never had good storylines, and this has the worst yet. But like the two films before this, Shrek the Third succeeds when it is allowed to wit-fully play with and against the conventions of the fairy-tale genre.

It’s so much, almost too much, that when the story eventually kicks in, the momentum of the film hits a slow-motion like pace (at least in comparison)....
