: Shrek 2

Terrific sequel. Has more of the same mixed-up fairy tale humor with a good heart. The story’s a little slight — Shrek and his new bride go visit her King and Queen parents — but I loved the evil Fairy Godmother character, the witty jokes that come at you like from a gatling gun, and hilarious modern references (singing “Rawhide” during their journey, the “Far Far Away” kingdom as Hollywood, modern music, etc.). The ending’s pat, but satisfying. All in all, a great sequel.
