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.

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

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

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

It’s not the best, but it’s OK. It wasn’t nearly as funny as the first two since many jokes didn’t really land as well, but it still made me laugh a few times

It's enjoyable to see the Shrek story continue. But the storyline was not always great. It was very disappointing that Shrek had to leave on the boat while Fiona was pregnant. It was even getting repetitive because Prince Charming was still around about to get the throne since the King died & the moral of Shrek stayed the same (only judge somebody when you get to know them). Why did Prince Charming go for Rapunzel when it was supposed to be Cinderella? We even have a misleading tagline that "he is in for the Royal treatment" where Shrek had never intended to be King of Far Far Away. Benefits though: Shrek made Arthur who was deemed a "loser" (voiced by JT) somebody who ruled revealing you can be a great person - you can be unstoppable. We have still that hooting humour for all ages & dissing Disney (Snow White singing her song).
