Critics Consensus

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

[Shrek Forever After] is a satisfactory way to end the series.

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.

The movie is a family drama about the family drama, so on every available level it works a treat.

A hazy melancholy result for adults and excessive abstraction for children. [Full review in Spanish]

This movie teaches the theme about appreciating what you have and your connection with others. It is a massive improvement from its predecessor and a genuine competitor for best movie in the franchise. It’s the most emotional and serious movie out of the four, with some light-hearted and humorous moments sprinkled in. This movie is a must-watch for teens/adults, just like the first and second.

Shrek Para Sempre não respeita a franquia, trazendo um roteiro de viagem no tempo nunca mencionado em outros filmes e um vilão que não tem nada a ver com a franquia. Mistura histórias que fazem o filme nem parecer fazer parte da franquia.

A comedy mixed with a bit of drama, honestly I loved it. It was one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life, great to watch with the family. I loved it, but contradictorily, some parts confused me. For example, when there's the deal with the guy with the wig, and we only find out halfway through the movie. I loved it.

Shrek Forever After (2010) is a rather disappointing film. I honestly think there shouldn't be a fourth Shrek movie; I'm sure the fifth one will be awful.

An improvement over 3. It tries to get back to the heart of the first 2, and... kind of succeeds? Not as good, but still a fine conclusion. The story is deep and emotional, love the medieval vibe in it. Though the alternate reality thing is not that great, because Fiona's growth in 4 is just completely erased after Shrek gets back. Those characters we were with the whole film are just... gone. Overall, it's fine.
