I went to see it today. It was awsome. Shame there won't be another until 2010 .

Good, we need a break. Like Austin Powers 3, it wasn't that great. Better than a kick in the nuts (which lots of movies are), but not so great.


Come see the WIP!

Ah, you must mean the seeing his life flash before him scene. The bionic reference was class!

Cheers

I seem to the the only one thoroughly disappointed with it. It just didn't do it for me at all, which is a shame because I loved the first two... I felt it wasn't as funny, and the plot did nothing for me... I also thought that Justin Timberlake was awful... surely they could have got someone better...

I took my kids to see it the other day, and we all enjoyed it. I hear that Pixar has Toy Story 3 slated for 2010.

Shrek 3 was a disappointment. The storyline was boring compared to the others--- but what can I expect from a kid's movie anyways.

Yeah, I thoroughly enjoyed that. The rest of the movie didn't really do it for me, but seeing the Bionic Gingerbread man pleased me immensely.

A lot, I've seen some great ones - Shrek 1,2, The Incredibles, Cars, etc.

I end up watching these because of my kids. Most do suck, but they mostly suck because I actually expect something from them. Others are just fantastic. I had no such expectations with old school Disney animated movies, but Pixar has really raised the bar.

I thought it was good, but really short only just over an hour. I have liked them all but the first one was the best I think.

FF2 was much better than the first one though, so occasionally a sequel can improve.

Ah, I should have added that even though the Gingerbread bionic moment was the best thing in the film, that didn't make the film that great. Personally it was very run of the mill stuff. Nowhere near the level of the first one basically.

It was ok, some parts i enjoyed, like the gingerbread man and the merlin guy. But Shrek 1 was the best, except I won't lie, I was completely amazed by how real CGI films are becoming

It wasn't too bad. Only slightly less interesting than Shrek 2, which is not too much of a slide down the drain. I really was bracing myself for a lot worse, after enduring (and walking out on - a first for me!) the ghastly Pirates of Caribbean 3 (now that one was a real bottom feeder).

I have vague plans for World Domination
