Shrek 2 (2004)
9/10
The first sequel done well.
2 May 2005
I loved Shrek 1 so much and had a neutral feeling about this movie.If they were going to do a sequel of the ever-popular Shrek 1,I was going to expect a lot out of this one.

We all know Shrek and Fiona married and love each other no matter what but what happens when Shrek meets her parents.Shrek return from their honeymoon and are invited to the kingdom of Far,Far,Away where Fiona's parents are known as the king and queen.They have heard of Fiona's marriage and want to meet her new husband.When they both arrive and make their entrance to the castle,half the kingdom including Fiona's parents have seen Fiona's husband is an ogre and Fiona's an ogre as well and are not too pleased.Apparently,they are not the only ones displeased.Fiona's fairy godmother sees her new husband and argues to the King about the deal they made.The fairy godmother arranged her son Prince Charming to be Fiona's husband and save her from the dragon but instead he finds The Big Bad Wolf disguised as Red Riding Hood's grandmother.She threatens that unless the king can kill Shrek and leave Fiona to marry Prince Charming,terrible things will happen.

I was very pleased and very entertained after this movie.I've seen many sequels and they either haven't been as good or just sucked and haven't had an connection with the first movies.However,I can make an acceptation for this movie.Again,this is filled with humor,parodies and good hidden morals.The FairyGodmother and Puss-in-Boots are now added on my list of favorite Shrek characters.There is also an excellent soundtrack in addition to the movie and a hilarious ending.The animation was again fantastic and the characters were very enjoyable.Although I equally like both the first and second Shrek,nothing will compare to the first movie.8/10
