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 08/22/2018
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. Go to Full Review
David Ansen Newsweek 04/07/2008
This is a very skillfully made corporate product, but I wonder who, exactly, will be fully satisfied. Go to Full Review

On this evidence, thrice is definitely enough. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

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

Jack S @JackSV 1d I just laughed every second of this movie, the best Shrek movie. See more Dylan P @dp1234 3d it has to be the weakest movie the franchise one and two weresooooooooooooooooooooooooo good but this was badddddddddddddd and bunnnnnnnnnnns See more Tomasz T @Tom1994 Feb 11 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 See more Yannis L Feb 3 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. See more tiffany g @User0817 Feb 2 This is what you expect from a sequel. It wasn’t good, it wasn’t like the first two, and I pray to god that the 5th one isn’t like it See more Kristy K. @Kristyakra Jan 5 I laughed a lot during this movie! There were a lot of funny lines and little things they did that were humorous!! Love watching these movies with my family!! I am beyond excited for another one to be coming out!!
