Happily ever after never seemed so far far away when a trip to meet the in-laws turns into a hilariously twisted adventure for Shrek and Fiona. With the help of his faithful Donkey, Shrek takes on a potion-brewing Fairy Godmother, the pompous Prince Charming, and the ogre-killer, Puss In Boots.

Story Synopsis:
Following their wedding, cranky ogre Shrek (voice of Myers) and his new bride, Princess Fiona (voice of Diaz), head 2 The Land Far Far Away to visit-make that “surprise”-her parents, who are not expecting their daughter and new son-in-law to be green (literally!). But helping Fiona find her skin color and new Prince Charming (voice of Rupert Everett) won’t be easy as long as Shrek, Donkey (voice of Murphy), and Puss in Boots (voice of Antonio Banderas) are around! Based on the book by William Steig. (Suzanne Hodges)
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced DVD picture looks fantastic, with bold colors that pop from the screen. The entire family will revel in the bold hues depicted here. The animation is extremely detailed, with loads of dimension and “texture.” Spending time examining the picture reveals such incredible details, like gently swaying blades of grass, clothing that resembles burlap, and shadows and reflections-details which are a testament to the talented animators who brought life to the movie. Rarely does the picture have a smeared appearance, and there are very few instances in which pixel breakup is noticed. Overall, this is a great-looking picture that should certainly delight! (Suzanne Hodges)
Soundtrack:
Music and atmospheric effects sound great in this Dolby® Digital 5.1-channel soundtrack, but voices do not seem to naturally fit their spatial environment. Subtle elements of the presentation are represented well, but are rather quiet and can often be greatly overshadowed by the dominant center channel dialogue. Phantom imaging is very impressive across all four sound walls, with a very aggressive mix with effects and sound. LFE channel activity is held to a minimum throughout the presentation, and the overall level of the soundtrack is rather low. (Danny Richelieu)
