General Comments

Before I even set foot in the cinema I had already seen or heard about the best parts of Shrek 2 due to constant reviews and adverts. I thought it was far too hyped.
As someone said in a previous review, it was predictable. I found only a handful of scenes laugh out loud funny. None came from the main characters. Although I did find Puss-In-Boots hilarious at one point - then he faded into the background.
It is a good story and the effects are brilliant. The cast is perfect as well - I particualy enjoyed Jennifer Saunders' part. It is just a shade less enjoyable than the first one.
I recommend it if you loved the first one, but don't see it if you hate cliches.
