2/4  Shrek the Third
Shrek the Third is a huge disappointment in just about every way. Yes, The film is cleaver, but so what? It also has no story. The comedy is few and far between as well with the only laughs in the film being delivered by the supporting cha... (read full)

2/4  Too Aimed for Kids
The weakest of the first three "Shrek"s. The jokes are not as clever, the story not as poignant, and the tone of it is way too light to be taken seriously during its dramatic moments. Still, the animation is great even though it could not ... (read full)

3/4  not bad for number 3
Most third's of anything are bad and a waste a time, but I was very suprised at how good Shrek the Third was. I have always been a Shrek fan and I really enjoyed this movie and it gave me the laughs I was looking for. The babies added a n... (read full)

2.5/4  Not as good as Shrek 1&2 from a story perspective
I chose not to watch this on in the theaters because I had a number of friends that had seen it there and they told me that it wasn't worth seeing on the big screen. Being that I have been a big fan of the Shrek series ever since it began ... (read full)

2.5/4  Might have been a good idea, but wasn't
Shrek and the gang continue in their third film through another adventure. This time around, Shrek wants to locate Fiona's cousin, Arthur, to assume the throne that he doesn't want. Meanwhile, Prince Charming stages a coup against the th... (read full)

2/4  Sadly, not good.
Well, what happened here is what usually happends with the series. They fail. Of course is not a failure technically, but the story. Shrek one is my favorite animated flick, but you can see clearly here the lack of resources. Is not a "bad... (read full)

3/4  Shrek the Third Quick Review
If this is the end of the Shrek movies, they ended on a good note. Not as good as the other two, but still decent enough and funny. I give it extra props because it didn't suck and I expected it to.

3/4  Shrek the Third Quick Review
The third film in the ongoing Shrek series retiains much of what was fun with the first two films. The more characters you add, the less screen time other characters get. Still funny, but suffers once again from too much of a good thing.

5/5 Hilarious!

Shrek the Third is probably as good if not better then the first Shrek! My kids asked this for Christmas and have repeatedly watched and quoted the movie. A great buy for the family movie nights!

Shrek The Third is one hour and thirty-two minutes and was released May 18, 2007. This picks up where two left off. King Harold is on his death bed and is nearly ready to croak. He informs Shrek (who does not want to be king) that there is one other, Arthur (Pendragon). Shrek, Donkey and Puss In Boots set off to retrieve Arthur. As the ship leaves, Fiona tells Shrek that she is pregnant. Shrek does look forward to being a father. He is worried that he would be a bad role model. The trio arrives at Worcestershire Academy where Arthur is a student. He is a sixteen year old kid who's from the school bullies to the class nerds taunt Arthur. Shrek tell Artie (as he likes to be called) that he is the new king of Far Far Away. At first Artie is excited about being king. On the ship Donkey and Puss In Boots start talking about the responsibilities of being king and Artie begins to have second thoughts. Artie tries to turn the ship. Shrek and Artie are now in a battle of the ship wheel and during the struggle the wheel breaks and the ship crash on some rocks. Shrek, Donkey, Puss In Boots, and Artie make it to shore. The foursome find the home of Merlin; a retired wizard from Artie old school. Meanwhile Prince Charming and all of the evil characters hatch a plot to take over Far Far Away. Prince Charming and the gang capture Fiona, Queen Lilian, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Doris the Ugly Stepsister, and Cinderella. Prince Charming finds out through one of the three little pigs that Arthur is the next in line and Shrek went to get him. Prince Charming sends Captain Hook and some thugs to kill Shrek, Donkey, and Puss In Boots and bring back Arthur. Captain Hook and the thugs fail and Merlin cast a spell that would send all four of them back to Far Far Away. When they arrive at Far Far Away. Donkey is inside Puss In Boots body and Puss In Boots is in Donkey's body. The four make it back to the castle and Shrek finds his way to Prince Charming and is about to clobber him, however, Prince Charming is able to call for his men and capture Shrek. Shrek manages to trick Prince Charming to take him and let Artie go. Shrek, Donkey, and Puss In Boots are thrown in the tower. Prince Charming plans to kill Shrek in a play tonight. Queen Lilian literally butts her head against a couple walls so the folks in the tower can escape. Once free the princess, Donkey, and Puss In Boots make plans to win back Far Far Away and save Shrek. At the theater Prince Charming is at the part in the play where he is about to kill Shrek until troops arrive and are about to save him until Prince Charming summing his thugs and captures the rescuers. Just as about Prince Charming is about to slew Shrek, Arthur arrives and reason with the villains to turn over a new leaf. The villains lay down their weapons and release the captives. Prince Charming is angry and picks up a sword to kill Arthur, but Shrek intervenes and is able to save Arthur and defeat Prince Charming. Arthur finally accepts the crown. Shrek and Fiona become parents of triplets. The first half of the movie is not bad, but fall about at the end. The movie could have a better ending and more story. I can only give Shrek The Third a C+.

Another one we liked in the theater, so I bought the DVD for car trips.
