Shrek 2 is a 2004 American computer-animated fantasy comedy film, produced by DreamWorks Animation and directed by Andrew Adamson, Kelly Asbury and Conrad Vernon. It is the second installment in the Shrek film series and the sequel to 2001's Shrek. The film features the voices of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, Antonio Banderas, Julie Andrews, John Cleese, Rupert Everett and Jennifer Saunders.

Like its predecessor, Shrek 2 received positive reviews. Shrek 2 scored the second-largest three day opening weekend in US history at the time of release, as well as the largest opening for an animated film until May 18, 2007, when it was eclipsed by its sequel Shrek the Third. As of 2011, it is the inflation-adjusted 31st highest-grossing film of all time in the US. It went on to be the highest-grossing film of 2004. The associated soundtrack reached the top ten of the Billboard 200. It is also the seventh highest ticket selling animated film of all time. It is DreamWorks's most successful film to date and was also the highest-grossing fully animated film of all time worldwide for six years until Toy Story 3 surpassed it in 2010.

<-------------------Just look at this face! He carried the film!!

It was hilarious! I thoroughly enjoyed it just for laughs! I think I was laughing out so hard on the plane that people were looking like I was some giggly freak! The movie is just about laughs and it achieved that effectively! There is no real lesson in the film save for the cliche that beauty is on the inside and is more than skin deep.

Shrek I on the otherhand, I couldn't even get through the whole movie! I switched it off! Bleh!

Yes, he sure did, but once you change that avatar, we won't agree. :wink:

Thankyou Appy and Riggs...

I refuse to even see this movie. The first one was so ingratiatiingly obnoxious. I couldn't stand the script, the characters, the storyline, or pretty much anything about it. Yuck, just give me my skittles and let me at least enjoy some real sugar. Animation alone is not enough to sustain my interest in something. One liners for one-liners sake is just not gonna hold my attention.

I am never going to watch this movie, and the only reason I'm psyched it was the #1 grosses in 2004 was because I didn't want POTC to get that covetted position.

I am also one of the few in the anti-Shrek group.
I never saw the first one in the theater, but my sister bought it when it came out and i saw it then and did not like it overall. The few parts that i liked involved John Lithgow as Farquod, that was it. I found Shrek himself to be obnoxious and amazingly annoying. Fiona was blah. Donkey was occasionally amusing but mostly he was irratating.
I found myself sitting there with a blank face as all these "jokes" went by and all around me were laughing and laughing, it felt like the whole movie was some inside joke that i never got. There were also far too many pop-culture "jokes" that were just not funny, and will be even less funny 10 years from now.
After that oh-so-pleasant experience with the first one, i never bothered to see the 2nd one. After reading reviews for it, i have decided that i never want to see it. I am talking about the good reviews. According to the reviews, it is basically just like the first one. And after seeing parts of that "alternate ending" with the disgusting american idol garbage, it was just cemented that i will never see it...ever.
