Shrek

I watched shrek last month. It's an Animated film and it takes place ina a marsh.

I enjoied the movie because it made me laugh. I thought the music was OK, it gets on with the humor of the film.

The actors were fun, and my favourite character was Donkey because he never stopped talking and finaly tires everybody. He made Shrek's life dificult, but he had some funny moments.

The best part of the film wa when Shrek and Donkey were reconcilied. The ending was emotional moment because fiona and Shrek were married.
