Fat, green and bad-tempered, Shrek may sound far from perfect - but he makes the perfect Ogre. And of course, even Ogres need a home - so when Shrek is banished from his cabin in the woods by the evil Lord Farqaad, he does everything he can to put the situation right. Joining forces with a talkative donkey, he is ordered by Farqaad to rescue a beautiful princess in exchange for his home - and that's when his problems really start! Filled with countless moments of great comedy, Shrek has been seen as a modern classic ever since it was released.

Shrek. A fantastic film with mythical fairytale creatures including the gingerbread man, Pinochio,little red riding hood,the big bad wolf and lots more! shrek is a fabulous comedy about an ugly ogre called shrek who lives by himself in a swamp, but one day all the fairytale creatures you could ever imagine were rounnded up at a short man named lord farquads castle and then were sent to shreks swamp. he must go on a quest to get rid of all the fairytale creatures and rescue a princess from a dragon guarded castle in the highest room in the tallest castle. on the way he meets a lively friendly donkey named DONKEY who never stops talking.there are unexpected twists as shrek falls in love with princess fiona and marries her and then donkeys falls in love with the castle guarding dragon.This is a fantastic film to watch and I rate it 5 out of 5 stars

The movie is just like an onion. It works in so many layers. Shrek the ogre is happy in his swamp until Lord Farquaad dumps all the magical creatures in his swarm. Shrek is not happy and sets off to confront the lord, with his side kick donkey. Shrek makes a deal with the lord and sets out to rescue Princerss Fiona, ably assisted by donkey. The movie is really funny with comedy for the adults (my teacher laughed at the strangest bits) and for children. A great movie to watch time and time again.

I thought Shrek was brilliant Donkey is really funny and extremly anoying he ask’s a load of funny and abnormal qustions fiona is into roal life and is easly imbaressed by sherk . Shrek is mad and funny most people say shrek was there faviorite charictor the king dosn’t like shrek beacuse he is bonkers and not the type to be a king the queen is a nice respectable women unlike her rather phsical husband . puss in boots was cute and funny he always got his way because he was that sweet and lovable looking but in the inside he was a wild mascot cat wahoo.
So now you understand why I rated this 5 stars if you watch shrek you will defntly rate it 5 stars.
