Editorial Review:
When Shrek married Fiona the last thing he had in mind was becoming the next King of Far Far Away. But when Shrekâs father-in-law, King Harold, suddenly croaks, that is exactly what he faces. Recruiting Donkey and Puss In Boots for a new quest, Shrek sets out to bring back the rightful heir to the throne. Meanwhile back in the kingdom, Fiona's jilted Prince Charming storms the city with an army of fairy tale villains to seize the throne. Fiona and a band of princesses must stop him to ensure there will be a kingdom left to rule!
Description of Shrek the Third (Widescreen Edition):
It's not easy being an ogre, but Shrek finds it doubly difficult for an ogre like himself to fill in for a king when his father-in-law King Harold of Far, Far Away falls ill in this third Shrek movie. Shrek's attempts to fulfill his kingly duties play like a blooper reel, with boat christenings and knighting ceremonies gone terribly wrong, and to say that Shrek (Mike Myers) is insecure about his new role is a gross understatement. When King Harold (John Cleese) passes away, Shrek sets out with Donkey (Eddie Murphy) and Puss-in-Boots (Antonio Banderas) to find Arthur (Justin Timberlake), the only heir in line for the throne besides himself. Just as Shrek sets sail to find Artie (as Arthur is more commonly known), Fiona (Cameron Diaz) shocks Shrek with the news that she's pregnant. Soon after, Prince Charming (Rupert Everett) sends Captain Hook (Ian McShane) in pursuit of Shrek and imprisons Fiona and her fellow Princesses as part of his plan to install himself as King of Far, Far Away. Shrek finds an awkward Artie jousting with his high school classmate Lancelot (John Krasinski) and, while Artie is certainly no picture of kingliness, Shrek is determined to drag him back to Far, Far Away to assume the throne. Mishaps and comedy abound, including a spell gone wrong that locks Donkey and Puss-in-Boots inside one another's bodies. While Fiona and the other Princesses prove they're anything but helpless women, Artie and Shrek battle their own fears of inadequacy in a struggle to discover their own self-worth. In the end, Shrek, Artie, and Fiona each learn a lot about their individual strengths and what truly makes each of them happy. Of course, it's the pervasive humor and wit that make Shrek the Third so side-splittingly appealing. Rated PG for some crude and suggestive humor, but appropriate for most families with children ages 6 and older. --Tami Horiuchi

Shrek the Third (Widescreen Edition) Reviews:
Come on its not That bad 
2009-10-24 - I give this one three stars But Shrek and Shrek 2 Are Better But this is Second to none I dont care what these reviws say I like this movie .
Fun movie 
2009-10-14 - Another one we liked in the theater, so I bought the DVD for car trips.
KINDA BLOWS
2009-10-02 - If you're a die hard shrek fan, then by all means pick this up. If not, then you can probably live without this movie. I think they have run out of ideas or maybe nothing can live up to the 1st 2 movies that were pure magic. This movie is just not funny, not intersting not that good. Once again, doeesn't suck just not that good either. I have even watched it twice, hoping it would get better, but no luck, just a horrible the 2nd time around
Shreck 3
2009-09-24 - Anti-climatic - but maybe a must own because it's part of the series. The suprise to me was that as good as the original release was [Shreck 1] - that Shreck 2 is the best one in the series. Shreck 2 is truly ingenious, funny, bold and dynamic in its entirety.
You may want to own this as part of the series - but definately don't miss Shreck 2.
Love Blu-Ray
2009-08-23 - Just watching the background, how clear it is; truly amazing. The movie is good - the clarity makes it even better. With blu-ray, I was noticing things I never did before - like the weave of Shek's shirt. The 4-o'clock shadow. And much more. I doubted the hype about blu-ray, but WOW - it's true.
