Emily and I saw
Shrek 2 at the spur of the moment last night, and I was kind of let down (though it was better than
Troy). While it was a good movie, I was expecting a little bit more from it. The animation was top notch, an improvement over the original Shrek, but there were fewer big laughs than the first and it felt rather short. It is a good movie that lives up to it's predecessor, but never really improves on the formula. However, if you like the first one, I'd definitely recommend seeing Shrek 2. But, if you weren't a fan of the first, you won't find anything new here.
