Funnier than shrek, more exciting than king arthur - Shrek 2 Reviews

The care, off the wall humor, and attention to detail that went into this sequel makes it every bit as good as its brilliant predecessor--if not better. It's obvious that the makers of "Shrek 2" weren't just out to capitalize on the popularity of the first film by quickly cranking out a carbon-copy that devoted fans would see based on its name alone. There really is plenty to laugh at here--including some light jabs at Hollywood and fairytale stereotypes. There's plenty of humor that is targeted towards adults as well, although in all cases, it's so masterfully executed that it isn't inappropriate for younger viewers. And I have to admit that the final battle sequence had me far more excited than the campy action sequences of "King Arthur". Even the animation in "Shrek 2" is an improvement on the original; all in all, I recommend this one highly!
