Part of me feels like Charlie Brown about to kick that bloody football.
Sure they say this will be the last Shrek, but sure as that horrible little girl keeps pulling the ball, I fear this is just another lie and we will have to once again have to watch the same movie altered just enough so that they can put a different title on it while children force their parents to pony up for yet another bucket of popcorn and DVD.
This is the fourth instalment of what started as a very clever film. Sadly with subsequent efforts/cash grabs, we've seen little in creativity. Oh look, another pop culture reference and what's that - a poop joke? Oh gee, thanks a bunch.
This time around however things are totally different ha, just kidding.
In fact this one follows the same plot as the last three in that Shrek's biggest mistake is not talking to his wife.
Even a six-year-old boy in the audience had enough as he yelled early on "Don't be an idiot Shrek!" Alas, Shrek is an idiot, and after a "new Daddy" montage, Shrek loses it and ends up in the classic I-wish-I-was-never-born-wish-granted plot.
The best thing about this film is the fat cat jokes. I suppose that's the best and worst thing, but if you're going to be dragged to this anyway you may as well take whatever you can because this is the very end of Shrek until the inevitable TV series of course.
