Remmy Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 Saw this opening weekend and LOVED it, then I rewatched the whole series last year and realized it truly is the worst one. It just generally lacks the laughs & entertainment value the first 2 had, like there were really some boring parts in there while 1 & 2 are non-stop fun. The 4th movie is okay.
Nazareth Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 Shrek 3 is better than Shrek 2. The second movie drags and the whole Prince Charming storyline was so boring.
ahauntingnearu Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 The jokes were definitely much lamer compared to the great writing in 1 and 2. And the "connections with real life" got a little too larger than life, IMO; like the writers 'knew what they were doing' a little too much (whereas the first two were still fantastic stories that weren't playing into themselves/their stereotypes too much). IDK if that makes sense . It's still great to me, really really good and compelling. LOVE it.
bestfiction Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 Here's why It's just not as heartfelt as first two movies, Charming is not really a good main villain, jokes are more cheap and lame, Shrek's character development isn't as huge. There's a reason why Shrek Forever After ignores the events of Shrek 3
thatsmydemi Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 Not me finding out there Shrek 4 exists because of this thread
Mtjjproducer Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 There was a drop in 3 from 2 that’s only because 2 as the best in the series. Honestly I like 3 more than 4. I always hated the last one

rihannabiggestfan Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) The bad reviews kinda turned me off, so I didn't feel like watching tbh. But do people really think 2 is better than 1? That's wild. At least Metacritic disagrees. Edited June 3, 2022 by rihannabiggestfan
SweetTalker Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 I haven’t watched it in years but I thought it was cute?? Obviously not as good as the 2nd one but i remember having the game for the Wii lol
Dystopian Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 because they set the bar so high with shrek 2 aka one of the best films of all time

PieceByPiece_KC Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 I'll watch it this weekend and report back! Anyone know where I can stream this?
rehceeb Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 didn't know it was panned i still like it - the princesses are the best part of the film i guess that makes it the Born this Way of the franchise, following their Fame+Monster and well you know what that makes the 4th one

Power love Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 I have never seen any of theses films. I just remember one of the characters looking like Candace Owens.
Sam96 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 Shrek 1&2 are both cinematic masterpieces, 3&4 are awful and shouldn’t exist
Stuart Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 It was fine but a major letdown compared to the fantastic second movie. The princesses part is a classic though.

Karla Cabello Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 it was awful, no funny jokes, no redeeming qualities, no good villian, fiona didnt have almost any screentime. downright awful movie. 4 on the other hand is underrated. the fact the funniest thing to come out from S3 was this meme and its not even from the movie
Janet Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 The animation was terrible and cheap looking I detest the storyline
