Cheesy Shrek

I just wanted to watch the final installment of the Shrek movie series. Although the third film was disappointing, I was still hoping that this last one would bring back the Shrek magic. So, we looked at the movie schedules of Ayala’s entertainment centers and picked the most fit to our schedule.

I couldn’t say I enjoyed the film. It was, well, okay. There are some good jokes, but at 730 pm, just 30 minutes after the film started, I was already sleepy. There are some good jokes though, but not enough to compensate for the tickets we bought. There are just too many and too long dramatic moments in the scene, and a dramatic Ogre isn’t really such an appealing sight.

Shrek’s problem is that he misses his old single life (so this is an across-all-species phenomenon, ha?). He no longer feels the “man” that he was. He lost what he perhaps thinks as the respect (read: fear) he ought to have, having been a wanted ogre before. The implication was that it was due to the domestic life that he is now leading, with Fiona and the three kids. Maybe he was right. But I think, the reason for all this, lies in his cheesiness. haha. The film was filled with cliches! Sobrang cheesy!

Some of these cheesy lines are as follows:

 And I am also happy that was the final Shrek, before it loses all its former strength.
