Review of Shrek Forever After

shrekWait for the DVD

Fed up with his domestic duties, Shrek decides to experience his inner ogre with the help of Rumplestiltskin’s magic.  However, Rumplestiltskin sends Shrek to a world in which he was never born, just like in It’s a Wonderful Life; unfortunately, this world is full of the same gross-out jokes, obligatory celebrity voices, and tired pop songs used as punchlines as in the other Shrek movies.  While I liked that the alternate Fiona was a warrior leading an ogre resistance, and I admit that some kids will probably like this movie, I think parents should at most wait for the DVD.
