Shrek 2 is easily the BEST Shrek Movie out of the 4 no doubt about it!
4? I thought there were only three? Shrek, 2, and Forever After. Am I missing one?
@@shaggymuffin349 That kinda depends if you don’t remember Shrek The Third but I digress.
@@shaggymuffin349 Shrek The 3rd
My personal favourite Dreamworks sequels are Shrek 2, Kung Fu Panda 2 and How to train your Dragon 2
3 key memories: "Beeeee GOOOOOOD" and crying with gingyn 2: My cousin admitting human Shrek was hot
3: Its a THONG!!(Edit)
Fun fact: William Steig, the author of the book that this franchise is based on, passed away a year before this film came out. Shrek 2 was dedicated to him.
He was also one of my favorite authors as a child.
How is this a FUN fact?!
This movie still has the best version of Holding Out For A Hero that I've ever heard!
Fairy Godmother's take on this song will always be a Magnificent and steller moment in Animation, no matter how many years go by. 🧚♀️
Agreed. It just gets me pumped.
As "The Duke of Artz" I agree
And yet I prefer Frou Frou's version 😅
Indeed.
You can't deny the DVD menu is peak.
Yeah. I refused to buy the Blu-Ray or 4K because of the menus.
DVD's were peak in the old days cause ever since sometime in the 2010s and so on they're to boring and safe
Yeah, The Simpsons did something similar with their box sets by having a theme from Season 6 onwards and important characters, like Season 6 was a police waiting area, 7 was an awards ceremony and 8 was a momento, and a photo was taken during it of things like Belle slapping Kurt van Houten, the hurricane chasing Ned Flanders and Frank Grimes getting electrocuted. While later seasons were not as good, this themed approach was made for all the other DVDs, which went up to seventeen, I think. But I have to admit, the Shrek 2 menu is still better. "How about this, Shrek 2: Dude, Where's My Donkey? Oh There He Is Cut From The Movie Cause He Talks Too Much!"
The first Shrek is a classic.
The second Shrek is a masterpiece.
The third Shrek is a dud.
The fourth Shrek was a decent end.
The first Puss in Boots was alright.
The second Puss in Boots was a surprise!
That's how I describe the Shrek/Puss in Boots franchise in a nutshell.
a decent end or so you thought
@@MrGabeanator Yeah I heard about Shrek 5.
@@diggerfan9319 and how do you feel about it
@@MrGabeanator Worried.
@@MrGabeanator Worried.
If the beast from Beauty and the beast can have a happily ever after, so can Shrek.
Yeah, TFG should've read a page from that book!
@@RosheenQuynh What does TFG stand for?
@@themascotwizard5267 The Fairy Godmother 😅 I didn't feel like typing it out before, whoops... sorry
Yeah
Shrek was right about Fiona's parents not liking him, we all least King Harold didn't like him at first, Queen Lillian didn't seem to mind him. Fiona should've known better but because she was so eager to see her parents again after so many years, she disregarded Shrek's warning
He knew that people don't like him as they still see him as a monster but in reality he just wants solitude.
This is a cinematic masterpiece and sent the high bar for Dreamworks and for sequels.
So did Toy Story 2
I hope you review the first and the third movie
Dreamworks does good sequels
@@samperry5383 except for Shrek the Turd
@@lexramstudios1386 Yeah
Shrek 2 and Kung Fu Panda 2 are some of the best sequels ever.
Don’t forget How to Train Your Dragon 2
@@Starwarsfanboy0928 Oh yeah, puss in boots 2 is coming up
It seems that Dreamworks has a better track record of good sequels than Disney. Though Disney has gotten better with their sequels as of late.
@@SpacialRend7Pixar has 3 Toy Story Sequels and they’re ALL better than the first one.
Also the hidden world and puss in boots last wish
Since I was a kid, I considered this movie perfect. And as an adult I consider this movie even more PERFECT
My words exactly!
@@SGWendy166 wonderful
Ah Fox and the Hound is next.
Yeah that scene where Todd gets released is a tear jerker
Fox and the hound is next. Yeahhhh, I’m not a fan of that one at all. It’s the fairytale of new york of films for me. Other people love it, but me who finds it mean spirited.
I thought it was going to be Grave of the Fireflies
@@mikolenoel8310 no the music that played in the background sounded like The Fox and the Hound song
Based on the predictions I made in his review of Guillermo Del Toro's Pinnochio, I thought the next Classic Review would be either Up or Barefoot Gen, both of which are infamously known for making viewers cry for obvious reasons.
This is the Citizen Kane of animated sequels along with Toy Story 2 and 3 and Kung Fu Panda 2.
Fun Fact: In Fairy Godmother's (Jennifer Saunders') factory, some workers are putting potion bottles on a conveyor belt. One of the bottles is marked "Fiagra" a play on Viagra
*FEAR ME IF YOU DARE!!!!!!!*
Back when the world need him most, they "Need A Hero!"
And in Puss In Boots The Last Wish he has his own musical number “Fearless Hero”
The comedy and writing was so good with this sequel.
As "The Duke of Artz" I agree
I agree 100%
@@georgerobertson7010 as “The Duke of Artz “ I agree 100% too
I remember 2004 being the best year for me. Not just because of this movie, but also many great films, great videogames like Donkey Konga and more, Cartoons that i grew up with on Cartoon Network and Saturday Morning cartoons and came back to my Ciudad Juarez home.
2004 was a great year for me, too. I think it's the best year for movies.
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat also came out the same time. It was the year of Bongofied DK games, great films, and fun toons. It was all a great time.
*ANIMAT PLEASE MAKE DREAMWORKS THE NEXT ANIMATION LOOKBACK YOU DO!!!*
This may be one of the great comedies of all time-not just animated comedies-but one of the all time great funny movies.
If only DreamWorks kept this same level of quality consistently
I remember you placed this film at #4 on your top 10 best animated sequels. Why am I not surprised that this got a glowing review from you?
Because it was in his top 10 duh.
@@moxiemaxie3543 m.ruclips.net/video/sdgdVVuHaxI/видео.html
The title also gives it away, just like every single one of his recent videos.
As a geek for animated sequels like Pixar’s “Toy Story 2” or Illumination’s “Despicable Me 2”, this is my absolute favorite from DreamWorks. Sure, a couple of duds that follow up like “Shark Tale” and, especially, “Shrek the Third” did disservices to the company, but it never stopped me from enjoying most of their features. And, while, sequels to “Kung Fu Panda” and “How to Train Your Dragon” are next to the big green ogre’s sequel, it still has a personal connection that still holds for many years.
For those who are looking forward to seeing “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” next week, I guarantee you that after watching it, that sequel might be the best thing to exist in the entire “Shrek” franchise” after “Shrek 2”.
Yes. I am excited as well.
Do you think Puss In Boots The Last Wish could get a 10/10? It has been a long time since AniMat ranked a DreamWorks movie at the number 1 best movie of the year.
I am not entirely sure. But we will have to wait and see. Although, I have been hearing great reviews for the movie.
@@Starwarsfanboy0928 I hope he will. Maybe he will give 1 point of to the characters but I think the story and animation will get a 10/10 rating.
Possibly.
The best way to describe Shrek 2 is Dreamworks’ Guess who’s coming to Dinner with some fairy tale references. Also, Holding out for hero is one of the greatest climatic scenes in cinema history.
Harold!
Shrek!
Fiona!
Fiona!

(The roasted pork falls on the table. Fiona stands up from her chair, her face filled with anger. She then rushes to her old childhood bedroom, much to the dismay of the others at the table.)
@@quickman2663 Love your icon by the way. :]
Shrek 2 is an iconic movie! The upload of this review is excellent timing because puss in boots: the last wish is coming to theaters this Christmas.
I hope Puss In Boots The Last Wish will also get a 10/10 when the review comes out.
This is a perfect way to end off AniMat's Classic Reviews of 2022.
Now we finally get to the Shrek series in Animat's Classic Reviews.
I hope he reviews the first movie
Shrek 2 was probably the first Dreamworks film I owned. And I'm happy that I grew up with this instead of the Boss Baby.
I wish the dragon appeared throughout the film instead of just the ending. She would've turned into a pegasus!
That's what I figured Dragon turned into while Donkey was a Noble Steed. But I suppose she didn't appear onscreen because she was going through a lot of pain while being pregnant with Dragon-Donkey Hybrids. And her Transformation definitely wouldn't have made her situation any easier.
Actually, she was originally going to appear as a Pegasus in the movie. In early drafts, she appeared with Gingy and the gang when they break Shrek, Donkey, and Puss out of prison and she was giving the abilities to talk. But the writers wanted her pregnancy to be a surprise and Dragon was too much of a chatterbox in Pegasus form to let it be a surprise. But the writers did confirm that she transformed off screen meaning she is Donkey's true love and although they don't say anything about it, she most likely did gave birth in a different form.
Honestly, it would have been cool to see her in the film. But I understand why she isn’t in this until the end.
This is fairytales not mythical creatures. Try again. I don't see anything wrong with there self discipline though. Im glad they didn't over crowd the movie. Recently, studios don't know when to cut characters from a story
This was my favorite DreamWorks movie growing up. The 1st Shrek movie may have started this franchise, but 2 expanded on the original film in all the right ways.
Shrek 2 was a hit for me as a kid. I had it on dvd growing up and it started my Shrek phase.
Did you know that this was the first sequel to a CGI animated movie since Toy Story 2? The five year gap between 1999 to 2004 is the longest time a sequel to an early CGI movie had and thanks to Shrek 2 every year after afterwards had a sequel to a CGI animated movie.
Animated movies are my favorite
The thing about the animation I love is how realistic the artstyle is. They have small regular eyes, realistic teeth, and even tiny details like the moles and freckles. It’s animation like this I miss cause it made me believe this could happen in real life.
It’s like, comparing this animation with Disney or Dreamworks 3D now. Where they all have big cartoony eyes, perfect clear skin, and not that many details. Here, the eyes are so realistic and their teeth isn’t pearly white, and even though they are expressive, they’re still realistic and look like they could most definitely exist in our world.
I miss Dreamworks 3D realistic artstyle here, it may not have aged that well, but it’s still really good.
Shrek franchise Ranked:
01: Puss in Boots: The Last Wish
02: Shrek 2
03: Shrek
04: Puss in Boots
05: Shrek Forever After
06: Shrek the Third
*I Need a Hero intensifies*
"Don't you point those dirty green sausages at me!"
My intro to the shrek films and never knew there was a first one, I thought 2 was the first 🥰🥰🥰
Among us - 19:55 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is not only my favorite Shrek film, but it’s also one of my favorite films from DreamWorks Animation.
This animated cinematic project is how you SHOULD make a sequel especially with the animation and writing
If only they stopped the franchise here :(
The third is the worst one in the whole franchise! Even the fourth movie is better.
@@JEFFYtv433there was a fourth shrek movie?
@@mangareader7474 yeah
Shrek 4 and puss in boots are good.
I got to say this is the best sequel and the best movie in 2004
I will always have a big spot for the first one. But this is definitely a worthy successor. Truly One of the highlights of Mike Myers' career. Puss in Boots' introduction is another highlight in my opinion. Intentionally (if it was) written as a Zorro parody, to the point of having Antonio Banderas to voice the character. One of the standouts of the movie, if you ask me.
This will ever be my favorite shrek movie and my favorite dreamworks animation film.
The animation is much better than the first movie with the characters, locations and fluids like water and mud.
Best Donkey lines from that movie,
“Are we there yet?”
“….pop…pop! …..Pop!”
“Police Brutality! Police Brutality!”
“Donkey!”
This movie is the literal definition of how to do an AMAZING sequel! The story is engaging, the characters both old and new are memorable, the jokes and pop-culture references still hold up, the soundtrack is S tier god level (Holding out for a Hero didn't have to go THAT hard but I'm glad they did). Its a movie I've seen so many times but I never get tired of it. Its easily my favorite out of all the Shrek movies. Also Shrek as a human is a total HOTTIE!!
Shrek 2 is an amazing follow-up to the first film and by far one of the best sequels ever made. And with Puss in Boots’s own sequel coming later this year and getting very positive previews, I entirely hope…no, wish that he’ll be able to share at least a shred of Shrek’s success.👌🏽
Interesting. Disney’s The Fox and the Hound is the next review. This should be something to analyze, especially since this comes from the early 1980s which is considered one of the company’s rockiest times
Easily the best Shrek film. This movie is a real masterpiece plain and simple, this film was part of my childhood and it only gets better with age. Great review Animat.
I remember watching this movie a lot back in the day and having a blast with it. Looking back on it, I consider it an improvement from the first film, with an engaging love story, great new characters joining the characters from before (my favorite of which being Puss in Poots), and especially how this movie doesn't take so many jabs at Disney like the first movie did. This is definitely my favorite film in the Shrek franchise.
As for the next review, I honestly don't know what it'll be, but if it's an "emotional" movie, then let's make sure we've got our tissues ready.
EDIT: Scratch that, I think I figured out what it is: "The Fox and the Hound".
I wish Dreamworks would go back in time when they *𝘼𝘾𝙏𝙐𝘼𝙇𝙇𝙔* made great movies like Megamind, Shrek 2, How to Train Your Dragon, The Bad Guys, Puss in Boots, etc and not movies nowadays like The Boss Baby 2, Spirit, Dragons: The Nine Realms, Trollhunters, Penguins of Madagascar, etc.
(Also for people who have seen Puss in Boots: The Last Wish) I wish DreamWorks put All Star by Smash Mouth in the movie, because the movie was supposed to be the last Puss in Boots movie and then have Puss go to Far Far Away and meet Shrek and the others but anyways, I'm happy with what I got from the film, I just wish they at least put All Star at the end or have Eddie Murphy and Mike Myers reprise their roles as Shrek and Donkey for the ending scene where they both meet Puss.
Wait. You think The Bad Guys is great? 🤨
Mat, although you mostly take movie requests from pateron, can you do a review of the Polar Express? If you do take my request, may you call me by Daniel?
And can you please do a review of Fantasia 2000? If you take my request also, may you call me by my name Kirsten Marie Donovan
I loved the first SHREK and when I heard about the sequel I thought "They'll never top the first one."
Guess what...
Let me guess, your assumption turned out wrong.
Me and my classmates use to watch the heck out of this movie back in Junior High, especially the karaoke segments. 🤣
Okay though, can we talk about the soundtrack in this movie and how lit it is!? I can't believe you didn't mention how great the performance of Jennifer Saunder's edition of Holding out for a Hero was! That scene alone is why this movie is my favorite out of the Shrek franchise and one of my favorite Dreamworks movies.
It seems like the sequels to any Dreamworks movie turns out better than the original, except for Trolls Word Tour and Boss Baby 2.
The fact that you gave this film a 10/10 makes me more curious about how you'll review The Incredibles if you ever get to do so, considering I love both movies so much it's almost a tie. (personally, I like the Pixar film a bit more) AND considering it was the Pixar film that won the Oscar that year
What if AniMat might rate The Incredibles 1 a very high 9/10 with only a few points off? But I hope it’s a 10/10.
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 Well, some of the things he said about The Incredibles in the past is a possible indicator that he'll rate it 10/10.
Not to mention that I do think the human characters have a better design in the Pixar film. Lol
@@disneyfan8719 I kinda prefer the designs of Shrek 2 a bit but I think both of their “animation” are a 9/10 and story and characters a 10/10
@@disneyfan8719 what did he say about The Incredibles 1?
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 He called Syndrome the best Pixar villain, he called his death the best villain death, and I think he said at one point that the film was one of Brad Bird's best.
Fox and the hound is next!
Its one of best squeals I ever watched and its rare to say it actually even better than the original movie.
It’s hilarious to think we go from this to Shrek the third
Yeah this is truly one of my favorite animated movies and second favorite sequel of all time (only behind Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and it's still a close fight) an easy 10/10 from me overall
Shrek: Alright big fella let’s crash this party😁
I got this movie on DVD as a kid. Good times.
Then surely you remember the INSANE menu, right?
Damn right I do!
@@quickman2663 Unforgettable! DVD menus is the one thing I regret not having in this day and age with new movies...
The DVD Menu was Legendary.
this was not nominated for best animated featuread but shark tals was let that sink
Yes it was? It, Shark Tale and Incredibles were the trio of 2004 to be nominated for best animated feature
Great review mate as always, looking forward to the original Fox and The Hound review next.
The next review is The Fox and the Hound
15:19 Patrick: LOOK AT IT! LOOK AT IT! LOOK AT IT! I WANT ALL OF YOU TO LOOK AT IT!
You cannot say the first Shrek is better than this masterpiece. You just can’t.
I honestly prefer the first Shrek
This brings back ALOT of good memories ;)
SUCH a GOOD Movie. The Fairy Godmother has got to be the BEST Villain in the Shrek Franchise. PERIOD.
To me, it's interesting how much of a legacy Shrek had at Dreamworks, it represented them as edgy, trending, and an exciting competior for Disney. After the 4 Shrek films were made, Dreamworks couldn't just let go of their beloved franchise so they made the Puss in Boots spinoff films and T.V show. After watching all 4 Shrek films, the first and 2nd are the best while the others weren't the worst movies but they lost all charm and comedy and everything that made Shrek stand out later.
I've always preferred the first movie because I find it to be funnier, but in terms of story, it definitely goes to this one.
I laugh the part before shrek gets attacked by puss is when puss jumps and growls as he open up his claws ready to attack him and shrek soon realizes that he’s about get attacked his eyes goes out wide and he goes like OH SHIT! 👀 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Damn the sequel’s comedy is hilarious! 😂🤣😁👍
Now Animat should turn the tables and review Shrek the Third. Love to see how that would play out. 😂
this is the greatest cinematic sequel of all time
Me: Alright animat let’s crash this review with your seal of approval! 😁👍
Coming soon Disney's 24th animated film "The Fox and the Hound".
This sequel is always wonderful.
To this day I prefer Jennifer Saunderrs' cover of "Holding Out for a Hero" over the original and listen to it all the time. I love this movie so much!
I hope Puss In Boots The Last Wish will get AniMat’s seal of approval
(10/10) The Story
(10/10) The Animation
(10/10) The Characters
I Give Shrek 2 (10/10) Best Shrek movie and best DreamWorks movie yet
Shrek 2 is my all time favorite in the Shrek franchise! I loved when my Dad took me to see it in the movie theater. It made Puss in Boots my favorite cat character also. He is so cool. I know Last Wish is a couple years old already, but I really want to see it especially from all the good reviews it’s received.
Question for Animat: will you be reviewing the animated Night at the museum, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules! (2022), and Scrooge: A Christmas Carol?
(Replies from Animat Only)
Personally I'm thinking no given his tweet late in November mentioned he only had three animated movies left this year and only mentioned Pinocchio, Strange World and Puss and Boots 2
I thought you would give this movie a 9/10 but I guess I was wrong
STORY: 10/10
ANIMATION: 10/10
CHARTERERS: 10/10
TOTAL: 10/10👍
I’m glad he gave it a 10/10
I wonder if he is going to say that brother bear is good
Shrek 2 is my favorite in the franchise and I still consider it to be the best one! I enjoy the sequel the most than the first Shrek as I watch it many times as a kid! And I honestly had a good laugh that you make an Among Us reference in the end!
Saying that Shrek 2 is incredible is like saying water is wet. It couldn't be any more true.
Shrek 2 is DreamWorks’s Empire Strikes Back. A sequel that expands on and improves on the original at the same time.
One of the first sequels I ever saw in theatres, and twice too. First time was with my parents and second time was with summer camp
Next review: “the fox and the hound“
Fox and The Hound is next
My Score
The Story 10/10
The Animation 10/10
The Characters 10/10
10/10
I sure love this movie, all through my life, even saw it before the first film (but I had a pirate copy). It just still holds up to this day, with the expansion of happily ever after. Plus, I do enjoy the characters, especially Donkey. And who could not resist Puss in Boots' sad face? 🥰 It's without a doubt the best Shrek movie, also the best DreamWorks Animation movie in my opinion! 10 out of 10! 😄👏
I loved this movie as a kid so much. That I even loved playing the Far Far Away Idol bonus features. Still an awesome movie!
Just like last year, ending off this year with another seal of approval. I’m starting to like this pattern!
Me too. Unlike how 2019 ended the 2010’s decade with seal of garbage.
He hasn’t reviewed Puss In Boots The Last Wish yet
@@DylanLightfootOnwardFan2004 so? He hasn’t reviewed Shrek 1 and 3 yet either. Why’s that such a big deal?
Edit: he has released his review of Puss in boots the last wish, and like this film, he also gave it the seal of approval. Now I am REALLY LOVING This pattern!
You chose a great day to post this review. Today is the day DreamWorks’ “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” premieres in theaters! …or at least in America it is
Me: Yah Baby Sweet Most memorable Recife
My Piplup: And we All even Say This possibly Animats best review yet
My Pikachu: Yah and not just of this month
My Pachirisu: Yes. Definitely. Absolutely!! Although movies that only just came out this year or more pacifily movies that first came out in 2022 in general don't count
❤️💖 Yeah, the Shrek 2 review finally arrived after all these years waiting for a review! Anyways, I always loved Shrek 2! One of my favorite animated films and one of the best animated sequels next to Toy Story 2 & 3, The Rescuers Down Under, Kung Fu Panda 2, How to Train Your Dragon etc. This is one of those rare animated sequels that is actually good or improved way better than the first movie.
I remembered very good old nostaglic memories in my childhood when I first watched this movie in the movie theaters during 2004 and I was very lucky to see this movie in theaters and got this movie on VHS 📼 ans always watched it whenever I have free time to watch. Personality, I wished Shrek 2 was the series finale and it didn't needed a third or fourth film. I feel like the second film as a series finale in my honest opinion. 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
Next to Toy Story 2 and 3, this is one of my favorite animated sequels of all time
This may be DreamWorks greatest sequel of all time!!
*I NEED A HERO*
This is easily one of DreamWorks’ BEST films of all time. I can’t wait for Puss in Boots: The Last Wish! 😁
I’m seeing that movie next week
Ok good luck 👍
The song We’re Doing a Sequel may have said ‘the sequel’s never quite as good’, but this movie begs to differ
(No offense to The Muppets intended)
I can't decide whether I like the first or second "Shrek" the best. Although, bringing in Puss in Boots and showing Shrek, Fiona and Donkey dealing with their transformations might give it a slight edge. That, and the climax with the Fairy Godmother's rendition of 'Holding Out for a Hero.'
