About this movie

"You've never met a hero quite like Shrek, winner of the first Academy Award ® for Best Animated Feature. The endearing ogre sparked a motion picture phenomenon and captured the world's imagination with...the Greatest Fairy Tale Never Told! Critics are calling SHREK ""not just a brilliant animated feature, but a superb film on any level"" (Larry King, USA Today).

Relive every moment of Shrek's (Mike Myers) daring quest to rescue the feisty Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) with the help of his loveable loudmouthed Donkey (Eddie Murphy) and win back the deed to his beloved swamp from scheming Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow).

Enchantingly irreverent and ""monsterously clever"" (Leah Rozen, People Magazine), SHREK is an ogre-sized adventure you'll want to see again and again!"

Let me tell you about this movie. This. Is the best movie. EVER. Anyone who tells you otherwise is DEMONSTRABLY wrong. This movie has it all. Plot. Characters. Layers. There's literally no reason to watch any other movie after seeing this one, because once you've watched this, you have seen the absolute pinnacle of human achievement, and no other movie will ever be able to match up with the sheer majesty of this masterpiece. Shrek is love. Shrek is life.

Best animated movie I've seen.... I'm not one to enjoy cartoons or animated ones either but watched this with my great granddaughter and I was really into it. It teaches children and adults also there is kindness and beauty in all of us....
