![]() It's nice to see Donkey, Puss and Shrek get along so well with each other, but there's nothing more they can do to fill another film. All the old characters get to do something funny, but in the end they are all just great to see as old friends you know from the past. Somewhere near the end they do get in a situation that brings back some of the comedy gold of Shrek 2, but it's too little and too late. Both characters do in fact get way too little screen time, and that's a big mistake since both characters were the highlights of Shrek 2. What I did miss, was the bickering between Puss and Donkey. I really liked the dialogue between the characters like in Shrek 1, it's something I kind of missed in Shrek 2, where the characters just jumped from one crazy situation to the next with a few one-liners her and there. As an English student, it really appealed to me. The Medieval high School was just hilarious, especially the mix-up between today's teen slang and Middle English. And if one pops up, than it got more laughs out of me than Far Far Away ever did in Shrek 2. ![]() Although it comes nowhere near the quality of the first film, it does try to recreate its pleasant pacing and isn't overstuffed with easy film/commercial/real life-reference jokes (I'm looking at you, Shrek 2).
