The lovably ugly green ogre returns with his green bride and furry, hooved friend in IShrek 2/I. The newlywed Shrek and Princess Fiona are invited to Fiona's former kingdom, Far Far Away, to have the marriage blessed by Fiona's parents--which Shrek thinks is a bad, bad idea, and he's proved right: The parents are horrified by their daughter's transformation into an ogress, a fairy godmother wants her son Prince Charming to win Fiona, and a feline assassin is hired to get Shrek out of the way. The computer animation is more detailed than ever, but it's the acting that make the comedy work--in addition to the return of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz, IShrek 2/I features the flexible voices of Julie Andrews (IMary Poppins/I), John Cleese (IMonty Python's Flying Circus/I), Antonio Banderas (IDesperado/I), and Jennifer Saunders (IAbsolutely Fabulous/I) as the gleefully wicked fairy godmother. I--Bret Fetzer/I

. Trois ans apres l'eclatant succes du numero 1, l'ogre vert revient pour un IShrek 2/I, realise par Andrew Adamson et Kelly Asbury, sous la houlette des studios Dreamworks. Plus drole, plus vive, plus referencee, cette suite est un veritable bonbon pour les grands et les petits. P Apres un voyage de noces idyllique, les jeunes maries Fiona et Shrek sont invites par les parents de la belle, le roi et la reine du royaume de IFar Far Away/I. Mais ceux-ci ne savent pas encore que, par amour, leur fille s'est changee en une ravissante ogresse. Sans compter que ce mariage n'arrange pas vraiment les projets du Roi. P Frais, drole, techniquement irreprochable, IShrek 2/I compte encore sur les voix d'un casting de reve (Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy Cameron Diaz, Julie Andrews, John Cleese, Antonio Banderas, Rupert Everett, Jennifer Saunders) pour donner du sel a ses personnages. Plus nombreux que dans le premier episode, ceux-ci, et notamment le Chat Botte, sont alors les courroies d'un humour dynamique et entrainant. Bourre de clins d'#156;il et de references au cinema, aux contes de fees, mais aussi plus largement a la culture populaire, le film repose egalement sur une intrigue solide et rythmee, qui en profite pour egratigner quelques poncifs hollywoodiens. Un divertissement de haute qualite aussi hilarant qu'irreverencieux - IHelen Faradji/I.

 You can take the ogre out of the swamp ... July 12, 2006
Daniel Jolley (Shelby, North Carolina USA)
More lavish animation, more unforgettable characters, more great songs, more sharply intelligent wit and comedy - all that and more goes into this sequel to the wildly successful Shrek. The look and feel of this film really are incredible and amazingly realistic, especially in terms of all the human characters. Unlike most films built upon a unique, breathtaking visual style, though, Shrek 2 relies upon a strong and compelling plot for its greatest success. Even though the first film introduced us to Shrek-oriented parodies of fairy tales, motion pictures, music, and pop culture in general, the script still works its magic by consistently surprising and delighting the audience. It's a worthy successor to a blockbuster of a film - although I still liked the first film better. Aye, I laughed pretty much from beginning to end during Shrek 2, but the film lacked some of the truly gut-busting comic antics of the original. br / br /Do I really need to rehash the plot here? Shrek's and Fiona's newfound happiness together is put to the test when Shrek's royal in-laws, the king and queen of Far Far Away, invite their daughter and her new husband home for a marriage celebration. The folks expect Prince Charming, of course, and are less than prepared for the ogre factor. Prince Charming is none too happy, either, and his mother the glamorous Fairy Godmother (you just can't trust a fairy godmother anymore these days) sets out to right the wrong caused by Shrek's unexpected rescue of Fiona. The king is a willing accomplice, even going so far as to contract a hit on Shrek with the renowned feline assassin Puss in Boots. In order to keep Fiona, Shrek makes the ultimate sacrifice, turning himself into a handsome man, but the Fairy Godmother thwarts him at every turn. Even with the help of his friends from back home in the swamp, it looks like the honeymoon - and marriage itself - is over. br / br /Everyone seems to be wild about Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots, and he does make a great addition to the Shrek universe. The heart of Shrek, however, still remains in the able voices of Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, and Eddie Murphy. It's pretty simple, really - if you enjoyed Shrek, you will certainly enjoy Shrek 2. The extras on the DVD add even more delight to the Shrek 2 experience. The Far Far Away Idol contest is a brilliant addition. You get not one but two filmmaker commentaries (but, sadly, no commentaries with any of the actors), and several looks at the making of the film are also worthy of your time. The rest of the special features are a little less impressive than they look, however - several of them basically just take you to selected scenes from the film itself. Still, there's plenty here to occupy your time and magnify the entertainment value of an ingenious film all but guaranteeing a good time for one and all.
Ca vaut vraiment le divertissement :-) February 11, 2005
Bonjour a tous,brPour commencer, j'aimerait vous dire que j'ai beaucoup aimer Shrek 2. J'ai offert a ma soeur le DVD et elle ma avouer que parmi tous les cadeaux qu'elle a recu c'est le plus beau cadeau que je lui ait offert, ce qui ma beaucoup toucher. Au debut quand j'ai visionner le film j'ai cru un instant que j'allait etre decu mais avec la magie du cinema j'ai etait emballer le fait qu'ils beaucoup innover dans l'histoire de la suite.

Shrek and his lovable loud mouthed donkey are back in this wonderful and creative film. the film is great and it has wonderful special features like *Far Far Away Idol* (simalar to american idol) where the charecters battle it out to see who is the winnwer of Far Far Away Idol. At the end, You at home can vote for your favorite charecter. i give Shrek 2 1000 thumbs up!!

Shrek 2 was an excellent movie, one that everyone will enjoy! It's just as entertaining and smart as the first one, and can be watched over and over. pNot just another kids movie, this one is for the adults too!
