Shrek (Mike Myers) returns from his honeymoon with his bride Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) to find an invitation from Fiona's parents, King Harold (John Cleese) and Queen Lilian (Julie Andrews) asking the newlyweds over to the Land Far, Far Away for dinner. On their arrival, they find that the King and Queen are less than pleased to see their daughter hitched to an affable green ogre, and looking rather the worse for wear herself compared to her former dazzling royal brilliance. When reminded by a conniving Fairy Godmother (Jennifer Saunders) of an ancient deal to match Fiona with her son, the vain and pompous Prince Charming (Rupert Everett), Shrek's new in-laws and their accomplices pull out all the stops to rid their kingdom of Shrek and restore their daughter to her former beauty - including hiring the services of notorious swashbuckling ogre-slayer Puss-in-Boots (Antonio Banderas). Eddie Murphy also reprises his role as the faithful Donkey. (Dreamworks Animation UK)

English At the very least, as good as the first part. The story is logically given a new setting and a number of new characters appear on the scene, especially the Puss in Boots, who’s is a welcome and hilarious addition. Unlike the first one, the concept is much crazier, there is more crazy action and humour, the donkey becomes even more talkative and Shrek becomes a real Hollywood hero. It may not be to everyone's taste, but I liked this straightforward style topped off with a great final half-hour and, notwithstanding a few dull spots, I had a great time. But if it weren't for the few major changes from the first film, the old friends Shrek and Donkey probably wouldn't be able to pull it off on their own, which was confirmed in the sequel. ()

English Force-adjusted porridge. A strange and possibly slightly unacceptable story for children, compensated by more or less good jokes and references. Shrek with Donkey and Puss in Boots belongs to the great part, but the rest is sometimes unbearably boring, especially the subplot with the kiss, which noticeably copies the first installment. Therefore, I have to look completely coldly at the enthusiasm around it. The first one should have remained alone. ()

English The second part is my favorite in the series and I have to admit that it's mainly because of the great soundtrack. Although I also caught myself quoting some lines before they were spoken. I still immensely enjoy this animated film and I'm glad that I gave "Shrek," which was so popular this time, a chance and didn't avoid it, even though I had originally planned to. ()

English Though it’s no longer the “first time”, Shrek 2 is still packed with great scenes and especially the high-octane second half will completely disarm you. It’s the same kind of upgrade on the first one as Toy Story 2 – more of the same, but in a wilder and more bountiful package. ()

English Shrek 2 has its deaf spots (and there are quite a few), but they are balanced by great animation, some excellent references (a cool "Mission - Pinocchio - Impossible") and in places a very biting parody of Hollywood and movie star mores. The whole thing has a nice, relaxed and self-parodic atmosphere, which is good. And what I must not forget is the great voice acting of the characters in the original - especially Banderas made me laugh! In this regard, I would like to send a small message to our distributors: Go to hell with the dubbing! ()
