An almost amazing flick. I found some of the visual qualities of the characters very distracting. I think it was partly due to the lame AMC Santa Monica theater we were in. I’m spoiled by digital projection, brand new theaters, the arclight, etc. And I hate commercials at the movies. Right off the bat, my movie watching experience turns ugly watching ad after ad. Oh well. Like i said, almost amazing. If you loved Shrek, you’ll definitely like Shrek 2.
