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.

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.

This is a very skillfully made corporate product, but I wonder who, exactly, will be fully satisfied.

On this evidence, thrice is definitely enough.

2/4

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.

Technically and visually, the Shrek features continue to advance.

A satisfying sequel that has its charm but isn't quite up to par with its predecessors.

Maybe the most disappointing animated sequel ever made. Shrek the Third is, essentially, the Godfather: Part III of animated movies. This franchise had the opportunity to be one of the all-time great animated trilogies if this was on par with the first two. But instead, we got a dull, generically told, bizarrely uninspired threequel. Everything just feels so dashed off here, and it’s such a lazy continuation of its predecessors’ subversive narratives. It’s not the worst animated films ever made, but it’s got to be one of the most apathetic.

I think this is the weakest Shrek movie. There were some fun moments but also pretty boring ones. Not the same as the first 2 movies

Pas mauvais mais clairement pas aussi bon que les deux premiers. L'humour tombe parfois à plat, le personnage d'Arthur n'est pas très développé et la fin est assez niaise avec sa morale du type "c'est 0as bien d'être méchant". En fait shrek est devenu ce qu'il parodiait. C'est dommage car il y a de bons moments et Charmant est un bon méchant.
