We all hate comparing things , but when a worldwide famous franchise as "SHREK" appears on your nearest theater , not putting the previous Dreamworks efforts into question is probably a daunting task. The first two ones were awe-inspiring and a milestone into animation films.The voice acting was superb , the characters were deep and the audience could relate with them , the OST was excellent disregarding whatever your musical taste is , and the plot was indeed an Oscar-worthy script. With the third one all those elements seemed to be there , but diminished and somewhat blurred and somehow far from the original idea.
In Shrek Forever After , all those elements that made the franchise a world-class filmi are totally gone.Not a single trace of them. Shrek has turned into a dumbed-down story with clichés overused into Hollywood filmi.Putting aside the fact that Shrek 4 is carrying a heavy weight on the shoulders , on it's own it's not even an OK film , simply a forgettable summer-carry-along-your-kids blockbuster. Sure , the animation is better than ever and surpasses the other 3 filmi , but animation relies on technology and it improves and becomes better with time so the visual aspect is not a positive thing.
Shame on you Dreamworks , shame on you.
If you enjoyed the first 2 filmi and liked the third: A)If your expectations are low :give it a try B)If your expectations are modest:forget this one. C)If your expectations are high :forget this one.
