I am in no way a movie critic, but we went to Shrek yesterday and I would give it 2.5 out of 5 stars. It was way over the kids heads, but they still thought it was cute. I thought it was a little scary, and definitely not as funny as the first. Maybe it's one of those movies you need to see more than once, but I found myself getting bored while watching. I was distracted by Isabelle's restlessness, but all in all I just don't think it lived up to all the hype. The best part about the movie was that I got to hang out with just Jake and Izzy! They got a free poster and free Shrek mask which was very fun and the theater was beautiful. Jacob has been watching some cartoons this morning and there is a commercial for Shrek during every break- they are pushing this one hard. If you go check it out, let me know what you think of it.

I thought the 1st Shrek was pretty funny... but I didn't have kids and I'm sure the humor is just so above their heads. At least a 3 yr olds. Thanks for the review.
