MR 1-01 "Shrek"

I've never watched this movie before, but actually, I've watched Shrek 2 before. Yes, it's strange because I watched Shrek 2 before I watch Shrek 1. But maybe it's OK.

All right, so let's begin the Movie Review!

"Once upon a time, there was a lovely princess. But she had an enchantment upon her of a fearful sort which could only be broken by love's first kiss. She was locked away in a castle guarded by a terrible fire-breathing dragon. Many brave knights had attempted to free her from this dreadful prison, but none prevailed. She waited in the dragon's keep in the highest room of the tallest tower for her true love and true love's first kiss..." Shrek read this story. And this princess is the princess, Fiona. Anyway, it doesn't matter right now.


Shrek is an ogre, with green skin, and he is living in a swamp by himself. And he is called big, stupid, ugly ogre by people. He doesn't have any friends. One day, fairy tale things are dumped from their place and forced to go to Shrek's swamp by Lord Farquaad who is the master of Kingdom of Duloc. And at that time, a donkey who can speak and is a super chatter boxer was among those who are dumped from their place. He escaped from followers of the Lord, and then, he met Shrek by chance. Shrek helped him. They became kind of friends, and they went back the swamp. At night, there were freaking many fairy tales things in the swamp, they forced to go to the swamp by the Lord. To Shrek, this makes him freaking annoying. He decided to get them off his land and back where they came from to take back his swamp. So Shrek went to the Duloc with Donkey.

The Lord looks for princess to be king. He used the magic mirror, and he chose princess, Fiona. She was locked away in a castle guarded by a terrible fire-breathing dragon. Therefore, he gathered brave knights to take back the princess instead of his going. Shrek and Donkey were chosen as the rescuer. The Lord promised that he is going to get squatters off Shrek's swamp if Shrek takes the princess from the castle. They went for adventure. They fought against the dragon in the castle, and they rescued the princess. They were going back the Duloc, and on thier return adventure from the castle, Shrek and Fiona fallen in love each other. But she has big secret which she can't tell anyone. Yeah, she changes her appearance at night. She becomes an ogre like Shrek because of an enchantment upon her of a fearful sort which could only be broken by love's first kiss.

Their loves were not rewarded. She married with the Lord, but Shrek who found that she loved him interrupted the wed. Shrek and Fiona got married, and he kissed her with true love. She can't be beautiful lady anymore, but instead of it, she got true love.

Yeah, this movie is really interesting and funny, but this is good movie as well. The themes of this movie are frendship and love, but it's not only them but also its looks. Shrek doesn't have good looks because he is ogre, however, he has really pure heart. Why beautiful princess, Fiona, fallen love? Because he had pure heart. So no one judge people by their looks.
