i really enjoyed all of the first three, im definitely looking forward to the fourth

GreenScar · 03-26-2010, 10:50 PM

I enjoyed the new trailer. But I'll probably wait for a rental nonetheless.

Shrek, as a franchise would be so much more endearing if they had left it alone after the first one. After that, it just got to be marred in cheap pop culture humor and no soul.

Added a public rating poll since the movie opens today.

I'm wondering about opening weekend numbers.

I know the 2nd one opened up big and had a big 2nd week because it was Memorial Day Weekend. Can't remember the 3rd or when it opened.

Neil_Luv's_BLU · 05-21-2010, 07:06 PM

Saw a preview screening in London today... was worse than I could have possibly imagined (And I feared the worst!)

Tired pop culture references make not a good movie!... And speaking as a fan of Mad Men, Jon Hamm is woefully under used!

Trite from start to finish

Come in Shrek! Your time is up!

It'll probably do pretty good at the box office specially since IMAX tickets in New York just hit $20!!

kslee · 05-21-2010, 07:27 PM

I will wait for the release of this film in blu-ray and definitely will not watch it in cinema.

Exhibitor Relations SHREK 4 saw its kingdom crumble as it grossed just $21 million on Friday. In comparison, SHREK THE THIRD grossed $38 million on opening day!! Pretty obvious this franchise is "ogre" the hill...

Only one rating so far and for one star

I think this has alot to do with the 3rd one. That and maybe it's just me but I didn't see alot of TV advertisement.

Plus if this wasn't in 3-D how much would it have?

that sux!!! was hoping for the best for this one.

i'll wait for the 4th to be released on blu b/c then hopefully all 4 will be available by then.

Batman1980 · 05-22-2010, 06:45 PM

Bleh sounds like "Indy 4", guess I'll get it if it comes in a combo with the other 3.

The original was a great flick, but even the first wasn't "original"... Shrek movies rely to much on fitting popular culture references into a medieval fairytale environment! And as is evident in 3 and 4, most of the time these references, or "jokes" as they are laughably referred to, are often wide of the mark when it comes to raising even a grin from my face!

Only three votes? Didn't anyone else see this?

I'll probably see it on the 1st, not in the biggest hurry to see it because of the poor feedback from audiences and critics so far.

STARSCREAM · 05-23-2010, 07:32 PM

I'll probably be going and seeing it this week sometime. I think it looks hilarious from the previews.

I wish I hadn't Foggy, but I genuinely have! I'm not in the business of rating or reviewing a movie unless I have seen it with my own two eyes!

So I can swear, hand on heart, that I saw and hated the movie from start to finish!
