Once upon a time, in a far away swamp, there lived an ogre named Shrek (Mike Myers) whose precious solitude is suddenly shattered by an invasion of annoying fairy tale characters. They were all banished from their kingdom by the evil Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow). Determined to save their home — not to mention his — Shrek cuts a deal with Farquaad and sets out to rescue Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) to be Farquaad’s bride. Rescuing the Princess may be small compared to her deep, dark secret.

USA, 2001, 90 minutes, Rated PG, Directed by Andrew Adamson & Vicky Jenson

"A movie that appeals to the eye, mind, heart and funny bone; that's a pretty good quadruple for any movie."

- Desmond Ryan, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER
"This is not your average family cartoon. Shrek is jolly and wicked, filled with sly in-jokes and yet somehow possessing a heart."
- Roger Ebert, CHICAGO -
"An adorable, infectious work of true sophistication."
