Shrek and Fiona had 3 baby ogres and a bunch of embarrassing friends (Donkey in particular). It's like all of a sudden, Shrek grew tired of his new role and new life. He wanted to get back to the old time when he was hated by the villagers, when he could take a mud bath without being interrupted, and in conclusion, when he was alone without the troublesome babies and annoying things. The crack in Shrek's heart let the wicked wizard in and took advantage of him. So the adventure begins…
Shrek 4 is about love and loss; how to cherish the most common things in life that people tend to neglect; it's about to live the moment, not the past or future, to explore the beauties of now.
Well, maybe I've gone too far. Indeed, the film is full of imagination and laughter. I had lots of fun there.
At the end of day, I have to give credit to Dreamworks. After all, it's unrealistic to score every animation according to the Pixar standard.
