The reason why the sequel is difficult to shine is mostly because the good stories are told in the previous work, and the screenwriters not only have to rework the story, but also use the characters set for the previous work to find a place in the new story. Most of the time. All are somewhat reluctant.
Even Guo Degang can use the stalk that the king has lived and died several times. It can be said that there is nothing new. Afterwards, both the search for people from afar, or the power seizure activities that Charming led the wicked are all suspected of picking up people's teeth.
I found Artie with a weak look, and the weak has no potential at all, it is difficult for people to have confidence in him. And his appearance, hey, this way of appearance has long been abused. Originally, it felt unconvincing to the already settled villains in a few words of Charming, but if you look at Artie's speech at the end, you will find how reasonable, powerful, and restrained Charming is.
The plot incorporates Shrek’s psychological struggle to have a child, but it did not unfold. In the process of giving birth, he and Fiona did not have any conflicts. Everything was his own struggle, and then he suddenly became clear and accepted. It can be said that this link is The setup basically failed.
And Charming's usurpation is even a reprint of "Happily N'Ever After". The almost identical plot makes people exclaimed when DreamWorks has fallen to the point where it has to learn from LionsGate in cartoons.
The plot is not good, so the film has to rely on cartoon characters to attract popularity. Rapunzel's long hair is wearing a wig, Snow White, Cinderella, Sleep Beauty turned into Charlie's angels. When the protagonist is no longer the protagonist, and the supporting role grabs more points, it shows that the screenwriter is indeed poor.
