What to Know

Critics Consensus

Shrek the Third has pop culture potshots galore, but at the expense of the heart, charm, and wit that made the first two Shreks classics.

Deborah Ross The Spectator The first two movies had heart, charm, wit, originality, parfait and, most unusually for an animation, characters you could properly care about. This, though, has very little of any of the above, and it breaks my heart. Aug 22, 2018 Full Review Hank Sartin Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review David Ansen Newsweek This is a very skillfully made corporate product, but I wonder who, exactly, will be fully satisfied. Apr 7, 2008 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Both the donkey and the kitty have largely been neutered, and the film’s makers didn’t bother to introduce any compelling new characters to pick up the slack. Rated: 2/4 Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Technically and visually, the Shrek features continue to advance. Rated: 7/10 Nov 27, 2020 Full Review Micheal Compton Bowling Green Daily News A satisfying sequel that has its charm but isn't quite up to par with its predecessors. Rated: B Nov 21, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Artur S I HATE THIS MOVIE I HATE I HATE IT HATE HATE HATE HATE Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Cremenzio G Yeah it wasn't a fun movie, but I think that is good way to continue the story Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Audience Member Shrek the Third was a huge step down in quality from the first two movies. There’s hardly anything memorable or funny that happens. The only important thing that happens is Shrek having kids Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Audience Member In my oppinion this movie is as bad as Megamind 2 or EVEN WORSE because at least Megamind 2 was self aware and had more than 1 succesful joke making this the worst Dreamworks movie of all time. I used to watch this as a kid not realising that it was bad "I mean its Shrek, it can't be bad." oh how wrong I was. This movie is so boring that you might aswell watch paint dry. You would wanna only watch this on a long road trip in a car and NOWHERE and NOWHEN else!!! arthur sux Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review Osvaldo Adolfo R as good as the first and the second, it has the same charm Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Nick R A poor sequel in just about every way, with very little to offer. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review Read all reviews
