The team that created the 1998 film
Antz brings us a witty
computer-animated tall tale full of fanciful
characters, poignant morals and sophisticated
humor. When the ugly green ogre Shrek (Mike
Myers) finds his swamp infiltrated by the
likes of Tinkerbell, the Piped Piper and the
Big Bad Wolf due to the banishment of all
fairytale characters from the local kingdom
(a remarkable model and pardoy of the Magic
Kingdom) he becomes desperate for privacy.
Shrek strikes a deal with the Lord Farquaad
(John Lithgow) to rescue a forlorn princess
trapped in a dragon-guarded castle in
exchange for the reinstatement of his quiet
life in the swamp. Accompanied by a pesky
talking donkey (Eddie Murphy), the diverse
duo sets out to bring the headstrong Princess
Fiona (Cameron Diaz) back for the selfish
short-stack lord to attempt to quell his
severe short-man's complex. An unforgettable
journey of computer animation that is
certainly most entertaining for an adult viewer.
