1. A languidly paced, beautifully made and amusingly told tale in which, duh, love conquers all with the assistance of a kitty cat that winds up the movie's top dog.
2. Fairytales like this can come true... for me and for you.
3. Still flashy, funny and irreverent, balanced with a keen understanding of its lead characters that makes it more than just franchised eye-candy.
4. Clearly, it's a problem when a movie's least interesting characters are its title hero and his signficant ogre...
5. If Pixar's Toy Story movies connect with the inner child in all of us, DreamWorks' Shrek pictures are aimed squarely at our inner adolescent.
6. ...the villain this time around is Fairy Godmother herself, who acts like a magically powered plastic surgeon.
7. Manages to be a lot of fun while still playing it safe.
8. ... an empty pastiche of references bereft of heart. To its credit, however, there are no Smash Mouth songs this time.
9. What's amazingly gutsy about Shrek 2 is its ability to dare to duplicate the infectious wit of its Academy-Award winning predecessor
10. Fleet, energetic, and consistently on the ball.
What is the consensus?
It may not be as fresh as the original, but topical humor and colorful secondary characters make Shrek 2 a winner in its own right.
1. En slappt tempo, vackert gjord och roande berättad saga i vilken, duh, kärleken erövrar allt med hjälp av en kattunge som slingrar upp filmens översta hund. 2. Såna här sagor kan bli verklighet för mig och dig. 3. Fortfarande flashig, rolig och irreversibel, balanserad med en skarp förståelse av dess ledande karaktärer som gör det mer än bara franchiseed ögongodis. 4. Uppenbarligen är det ett problem när en films minst intressanta karaktärer är dess titelhjälte och hans skylttroll... 5. Om Pixars Toy Story-filmer ansluter med det inre barnet i oss alla riktar sig DreamWorks Shrek-bilder rakt på vår inre tonåring. 6. ...skurken den här gången är Fairy Godmother själv, som agerar som en magiskt driven plastikkirurg. 7. Hanterar att vara mycket roligt medan du fortfarande spelar det säkert. 8. ... en tom pastisch av referenser som saknar hjärta. Till dess ära finns dock inga Smash Mouth-låtar denna gång. 9. Det som är otroligt modigt med Shrek 2 är dess förmåga att våga duplicera den smittsamma kvickheten i dess Akademi-Award vinnande föregångare 10. Flotta, energisk, och konsekvent på bollen. Vad är samförståndet?

Det kanske inte är lika fräscht som originalet, men aktuell humor och färgstarka biroller gör Shrek 2 till en vinnare i sin egen rätt.
