Editorial Reviews:

Un Essentiel amazon.fr
Bienvenue dans le monde du conte de fée irrévérencieux. Shrek est un pied de nez à toutes les merveilleuses histoires de notre enfance. En contant les aventures d'un ogre vert, d'un âne et d'une princesse aussi mal dégrossie que Blanche-Neige était délicate, le studio de production de Steven Spielberg a misé sur la pure fantaisie et l'humour décalé. Ce qui donne une petite merveille du genre. Tout au long de son parcours, Shrek rencontre des personnages magiques pris à contre-courant: un pseudo-prince charmant aussi teigneux que sa taille est petite, un impressionnant dragon qui se révèle en fait être une grande amoureuse, une princesse adepte du rot et cachant un terrible secret.
Affligé d'un âne qui parle plus vite que son ombre, Shrek part à la conquête de l'amour dans un divertissement familial à plusieurs lectures. Cela donne un dessin animé plaisant beaucoup aux enfants et énormément aux adultes. L'animation en images de synthèse est remarquable et marque les énormes progrès faits en la matière. Shrek est une petite révolution technique et une indéniable réussite artistique. --Marc Maesen


From Amazon.com
William Steig's delightfully fractured fairy tale is the right stuff for this computer-animated adaptation full of verve and wit. Our title character (voiced by Mike Myers) is an agreeable enough ogre who wants to live his days in peace. When the diminutive Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) evicts local fairy-tale creatures (including the now-famous Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, and the Gingerbread Man), they settle in the ogre's swamp and Shrek wants answers from Farquaad. A quest of sorts starts for Shrek and his new pal, a talking donkey (Eddie Murphy), where battles have to be won and a princess (Cameron Diaz) must be rescued from a dragon lair in a thrilling action sequence. The story is stronger than most animated fare, but it's the humor that makes Shrek a winner. The PG rating is stretched when Murphy and Myers hit their strides. The mild potty humor is fun enough for 10-year-olds but will never embarrass their parents. Shrek is never as warm and inspired as the Toy Story films, but the realistic computer animation and a rollicking soundtrack keep the entertainment in fine form. Produced by DreamWorks, the film also takes several delicious stabs at its crosstown rival, Disney. --Doug Thomas

Additional Features
Skip all the numerous extras on this two-disc set and go right to Shrek's Re-Voice Studio on the DVD-ROM. Here fans can dub their voices to the character lines with magical precision. This first-of-its-kind feature is a dandy, easy to set up with clear instructions. It's also a kick in the pants. The ROM portion also contains the best of the many games. Other extras go from ho-hum (the DVD games) to standard (the 25-minute, behind-the-scenes featurette). Fake interviews with the cast are fun as is the karaoke party containing new animation, but contain only half the wit of the movie's shenanigans. It doesn't matter, though, since you're going to head back to the Re-Voice Studio again and again. --Doug Thomas

shrek is a funny movie. the funniest thing in this movie is shrek's friend {or not} that he meets in his swamp{were shrek lives}. once i saw this movie i was hoping there would be a shrek 2 and now there is. in shrek farquad the very evil and short king sends shrek on a quest to find princess fiona a princess trapped in a castle with a fire breathing dragon gaurding her. shrek saves her and has to go bak i would tell more of this movie but i would give away the fun of it


5 out of 5 stars Really apart of what you've seen   July 10, 2004

This is a must-see. And it's not a easy way to define this film. This is for everyone, no matter of your sex, your age, your attitude to fairy tales, to cartoons or to music. "Shrek" has it to surprise and to enjoy each and everyone of your family or even none of your relatives.

It is easy to see with every kind of company. It's sweet, it's bitter. It's plenty of laugh and plenty of love. Music is really a big part of the film and every tune is perfect. I don't know of anybody who dislike this film. Extremely enjoyable.


3 out of 5 stars Watchable...but still   July 1, 2004
 0 out of 4 found this review helpful

I must say that I had been looking forward to it. Now I liked the Shrek character and seeing all those from the fairy tales. But still, too crude and not very origanl. Eddie Murphy's voice was annoying most of the time (Like watching Buddy Love).
Although it's not for young kids, it's watchable.
