Fairy tale deconstruction that's actually funny, not just smug. The dragon rescue earns the hype.
It ain't easy bein' green -- especially if you're a likable (albeit smelly) ogre named Shrek. On a mission to retrieve a gorgeous princess from the clutches of a fire-breathing dragon, Shrek teams up with an unlikely compatriot -- a wisecracking donkey.
Score it 0 to 100. Gut reaction, no overthinking.
