The story begins with a fairy tale book, and the voice-over tirelessly introduces the story of the beautiful princess. Suddenly, a big green hand tore off a page, and a door opens. It turns out that a green monster has just finished using the toilet.
The name of the main staff member of the film is very subtly protruding from the environment, and Shrek starts his day. Wipe your body with mud, brush your teeth with the green liquid inside a caterpillar, eat food that looks like a human eyeball, and engrave a self-portrait on a homemade sign to remind you of monsters nearby. This introduction is accompanied by a relaxing and pleasant background music, creating a lovely monster. At night, the villagers came to harass, and were scared away by a roar. It seems to be an invincible youkai, but it doesn't take the initiative to attack others.
In order to make his city-state a perfect world, a lord orders all the fairy tale characters to be expelled from the country. Among these characters are Pinocchio, whose nose grows when he panics, three pig brothers, and a talking donkey. In order to escape the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, the donkey fled into the forest, and after hitting Shrek, he followed him shamelessly.
Shrek had no choice but to take the donkey to his own territory, the swamp, but drove him outside the house to spend the night. The depressed donkey was running around outside. Shrek opened the door and found that there were suddenly many people, some uninvited people. . After knowing that the lord had exiled them here, Shrek and the donkey went to the lord and asked him to restore peace to his swamp.
In order to establish a perfect kingdom, the Lord found the magic mirror and asked him how to do it. The magic mirror told him that he could marry a princess. One is Cinderella, one is Snow White, and the other is Princess Fiona, who is trapped in a castle guarded by dragons. The king chose a third princess and decided to hold a contest to select warriors to save the princess.
Shrek came to the Lord's town and walked into the arena. Which soldiers were beaten up and down. Unexpectedly, the lord did not arrest him, but named him a warrior and went to a distant kingdom to save the princess. The deal was that after the princess returned, he would give the swamp to Shrek and make it a private domain.
Shrek and Donkey started an adventurous journey. They traveled long distances to the castle full of magma. After attracting the attention of the fire dragon, they rescued the princess. The princess thought that a handsome knight came to rescue her, so she deliberately entered Shrek, and even asked for a kiss. But when Shrek took off the helmet at the princess's repeated request, the princess was disappointed. Unwilling to go back with Shrek, Shrek had no choice but to carry the princess away on his shoulders. Along the way, the two seem to have a crush on each other. Just when the two were about to kiss, the donkey ran out and said that the two of you are watching the sunset here so romantic. When the princess heard the sunset, she immediately ran into the temporary residence.
In the middle of the night, the gossip donkey ran into the house for some unknown reason to find the princess. At this time, the princess was gone, replaced by a bloated green monster that looked very similar to Shrek. (It seems that all monsters are like that) Donkey realizes that the princess is cursed, she is a beautiful princess in the daytime, but after sunset it will become an ugly monster, unless she gets the kiss of the person who truly loves him, can she become the person who loves her After saying that Shrek actually liked the princess, but the princess was afraid that Shrek would hate her after seeing her appearance. Shrek heard the conversation between the princess and the donkey outside the door, thinking that the monster they were talking about was referring to him, and the injured Shrek put the flower that was intended for the princess by the door.
The princess finally planned to tell Shrek the truth, but Shrek's ignorant appearance made the princess unable to speak. Shrek brought the lord, and the princess was taken back to the city-state. Shrek also returned to his swamp. But the two seemed to be missing each other, and the donkey woke Shrek to let him know that the princess actually liked him, and together with him, plus the fire dragon who admired him, went to stop the wedding.
At the moment when the lord was about to kiss the princess, Shrek pushed open the door of the church and protested loudly. He confessed to the princess, and the princess decided to let him see how she turned into a monster. Shrek didn't think she was ugly. The princess was very happy and kissed Shrek. As a result, the princess didn't become pretty, but more like Shrek. .
Shrek and the princess got married, and with the blessings of various fairy tale characters, the whole play ended, and they finally lived happily together, even though they were a little ugly.
The most attractive part of this movie is that he subverts the traditional model of Beauty and the Beast, and designs the princess as a non-beauty with an ugly appearance, and the beast is also a friendly creature with a kind heart. The frontal character, Lord, is a small, timid man.
In one of them, Robinson the Robber saw Shrek and his party, and immediately grabbed the cane and fell from the sky, "saving" the princess. There was also a stage play when he introduced himself, but in the end, the princess put him on the ground mercilessly, and then cleaned up his accomplices one by one.
