Critics Consensus

While not without its moments, Shrek Forever After too often feels like a rote rehashing of the franchise's earlier entries.

Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express [Shrek Forever After] is a satisfactory way to end the series. Rated: 3/5 Apr 16, 2019 Full Review Deborah Ross The Spectator The rot set in with the third film, I think, and now, with the fourth, it's decomposed and gone to that black sludge you get at the bottom of the bin. Aug 30, 2018 Full Review Andrew O'Hagan London Evening Standard The movie is a family drama about the family drama, so on every available level it works a treat. Rated: 4/5 Jul 8, 2010 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) A hazy melancholy result for adults and excessive abstraction for children. [Full review in Spanish] Jul 15, 2022 Full Review Andrea Hubert NME (New Musical Express) Fourth time isn't the charm. Rated: 2.5/5 May 19, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins With this fourth entry in the series, it's clear this franchise is becoming more episodic than theatrical. Rated: 6/10 Nov 30, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Cremenzio G This movie is out of ideas, not bad but i wasn't necessary Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Audience Member This movie made me throw up (not seriously) when I went to see this I thought it would be a good watch but it was so bad I wanted a refund… FROM SEEING THIS MOVIE this is just so horrible there is no word to describe it if you are about to watch this SAVE YOURSELF.NOW OR ELSE YOU MIGHT WANT TO BAN YOURSELF FROM LIFE Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Audience Member Why is this movie so under appreciated? It’s a lot closer in quality to the first two movies than the third one. I thought the story was pretty touching and I really enjoyed Rumpelstilskin as the villain. Although we’re getting a Shrek 5, I thought this was a great conclusion to the series Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review TROY S Shrek Forever After is a great movie to take your kids to go see. It has the dry humor, the silly moments, and of course every fairytale melted into one. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review Audience Member Shrek face into falling deep into know his characterization who he is and how he can do to return of having a normal again.
