Movie Night: Shrek Forever After.

Review #209: Shrek Forever After.

Cast
Mike Myers (Shrek), Eddie Murphy (Donkey), Cameron Diaz (Princess Fiona), Antonio Banderas (Puss in Boots), Walt Dohrn (Rumpelstiltskin), Jon Hamm (Brogan), Jane Lynch (Gretchen), Craig Robinson (Cookie), Julie Andrews (Queen Lillian), and John Cleese (King Harold) Directed by Mike Mitchell.

Review
The last time I mentioned this movie was while back ago: I called it "Better, better then this film [Shrek the Third]" And...it hasn't really changed. The story feels less like the last two, trying to go back to the film series' roots. The acting is decent, yet we still after 10 years, feel for them. This is after all the last Shrek film (There were rumors that there would be a fifth, but it was decided to end the franchise with this, which was a good idea) It isn't as good as the first or second, but it at least is a fitting end to the film series. And yet it goes on in other ventures, such as a Musical, TV specials, a spinoff, comics, and more.

Overall, I give it 7 out of 10 stars.
