Very Cool!!!
Simply Perfect
Great Film overall
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
This short cartoon is made as 4D ride in Universal Studios. 3D glasses, moving seats, water spraying in your face, spiders crawling up your legs... I suppose it must be very entertaining experience. But movie itself should be bit better. I don't understand why they always slack the story whenever they have great effects. Still, it's just dozen minutes long so it has no time to bore you with lack of story, and animation and jokes are pretty good.7/10It bought me with:"Got a donkey, carriage made of onion, it's dark and our horses are wearing sunglasses. - To the chase, donkey, just cut to the chase. - Hit it, boys."
This takes place right after Shrek and Fiona marry. The ghost of Farquad had his dumb henchman kidnap Fiona--as the dead guy is STILL determined to marry her. But, as she's alive and he isn't, he needs to have her killed first. Can our heroes rescue her before it's too late?I was very surprised to see this film on DVD and on Netflix, as it originally was just intended as a 3-D film that is still being shown at Universal Studios. I've seen the film several times at Universal Orlando and when you see it on TV it loses not only the 3-D but the immersive theater experience. Rumbling seats and effects that take place throughout the theater are missing. Still, it's worth seeing. I'd give it a 7 in its none 3-D mode (yes, I know they say it's 4-D but ask any physicist about this) and a 9 at Universal Studios.
I did not hate the actual featurette, what I hated was that it was only sold in addition to Shrek 1, which everyone and his brother already owned, and had to buy again, just to get this 15-minute bridge into Shrek 2.It was a shameless marketing ploy designed to shove a second copy of the original movie down the consumers' throats, regardless of whether they had already purchased the original movie, or NOT. It was George Lucasesque in its gross thoughtlessness for the fans, and Dreamworks was considered to be above those shady tactics.The featurette should have been made available - at a REASONABLE PRICE - without forcing the consumer to buy another copy of a movie they already had.The practice employed here rates a 0/10.The featurette itself, for what it was, rates a 4/10 from...the Fiend :.
Shrek 4-D is a newly opened ride at Universal Studio's in Orlando Florida and I believe also Universal Hollywood.You are taken into a room prior to entering the movie theatre and are given a brief overview of what happened in Shrek, the original movie. The attendant in the room continually threatens your with a flogging. This is fun the first time you see it, but by the third time, it is pretty tedious.I do not normally like 3D, the effect makes me feel sick and I tend to have to keep taking my 3D glasses on and off, yet I eventually managed to sit through the whole of this ride with my glasses on. So where does 4D come into it? This is where you get squirted with water when donkey sneezes, your chair moves in time with the action and you get to feel lovely `spiders' running under your legs.Shrek is an excellent ride, worthy of several attempts, regardless of age. However my favourite Universal ride is still MiB!
