Shrek Forever After | 2010
Genre: Animation
Author : Sriram
Synopsis: Shrek forever after is better than Shrek 3
After a disappointing installment of Shrek 3, follows here a much more fulfilling
final part. For DreamWorks there is almost no room for a lower quality of animation
in the current market with Pixar and many more competitors around. Shrek is much
older, matured and calm. The movie begins with a very impressive correlation of
an incident happening unrealized during the first part. Here dwells the core story
of the fourth version. There are many more characters making their mark in this
part.
Shrek’s frustration of a monotonous life leads him to yield to the treacherous plot
of rumple steal skin. The movie centers round Shrek’s effort in regaining what was
lost and realization of the blessed life he had. Though there are many predictable
plots around the movie, a few of them were interesting enough to shadow the others.
As always there are a good number of suttle jokes which are brilliant. Creativity
is spread almost everywhere in both characterization and the environment. I specifically
enjoyed be hybrid donkey dragon.
There are movies that have a predictable storyline, but are often enjoyed for the
narration style, the interesting sequences and action. Shrek will fall in this category.
It is good that DreamWorks is not venturing to deliver an additional installment.
This story itself has been developed by stitching past sequences with intertwined
plots. Any future try would mess up the image of this revolutionary character.
“Shrek forever after” in a nutshell satisfies fans with whatever is expected but
fails to provide a stunning output which is from a final chapter. I would recommend
the movie to be viewed in 3D and IMAX. They provide a purely different experience
and enjoyment.
