Critics Consensus

Shrek the Third has pop culture potshots galore, but at the expense of the heart, charm, and wit that made the first two Shreks classics.

The first two movies had heart, charm, wit, originality, parfait and, most unusually for an animation, characters you could properly care about. This, though, has very little of any of the above, and it breaks my heart.

This is a very skillfully made corporate product, but I wonder who, exactly, will be fully satisfied.

On this evidence, thrice is definitely enough.

2/4

Both the donkey and the kitty have largely been neutered, and the film’s makers didn’t bother to introduce any compelling new characters to pick up the slack.

Technically and visually, the Shrek features continue to advance.

A satisfying sequel that has its charm but isn't quite up to par with its predecessors.

The Internet has made its opinion known: the first 2 Shrek movies are Absolute Cinema. But the last 2 Shrek movies are more up in the air as to how good they are. But I thought this movie was really good. It definitely wasn’t as good as the first 2, but it was still good! For starters, the cast is still great here, and I love that Prince Charming was the main villain of the movie. I also liked the dilemma Shrek is put in with the looming presence of Fiona’s pregnancy. This movie also continued the great musical choices form the first 2 films. If you’re on the fence about this movie because you’ve heard mixed things about it, give it a try anyway, it’s great!!

Embora não atinja a perfeição absoluta e o brilhantismo dos dois primeiros filmes, esta terceira parte continua a ser uma comédia de animação muito sólida e acima da média.
