A vibrant, irreverent fairy-tale sequel that subverts romantic conventions with humor and heart, balancing slapstick comedy with genuine affection for its characters.

Happily ever after never seemed so far far away when a trip to meet the in-laws turns into a hilariously twisted adventure for Shrek and Fiona. With the help of ever-faithful Donkey, Shrek takes on the potion-brewing Fairy Godmother, pompous Prince Charming, and infamous ogre-killer Puss In Boots.
