attack of the three's - Shrek 3 and Pirates 3 reviews


Seeing as both of these films really did nothing for me and their both third parts of trilogies- I decided to just kind of mash the reviews together. Yeah I've been away so I'm a little late in warning you and these movies have already stole your money but Pirates 3 hasn't done nearly as well as its predecessor and I'm glad - it means some people are smart and know that these sequels have been awful. Anyway Shrek 3 was better than Pirates 3. Shrek the Third isn't even all that bad. It's not as big as the other ones but it has a cute little story about Shrek having to become King and not wanting to. He goes on a long search to find little King Arthur who is the only other person who could be a successor. Princess Fiona gets her time to shine in this one- I was laughing so much with her and some of the other princesses. Hahaha "I got you the biggest one cuz I love you the most." Amy Poehler stole the show as Snow White. Also the Shrek babies and Dragon babies were really cute and funny. It's nothing special but it is worth seeing if you've seen the previous two, just simple summer fun. Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End was just awful. I mean seriously- now I'm not one who needs a linear story and plot but its just a mess. Granted I did hate part 2 also but I thought maybe all the good stuff was saved for the third. No wonder Keira wasn't at the premiere- probably embarassed. She was in this a lot more but was just annoying to me until the end when she looked gorgeous. Speaking of the end, it is very good. A little cliche when a big bold move by the story ends up not being exactly what we thought it was, killing the drama. But come two hours late and you'll enjoy the last hour which isn't all that bad. Also Davy Jones entertained me a lot more this time around! But I'm sorry- couldn't stand Calaypso. Anyway....see at your own risk- I guess if you liked Part 2- you will like this since it's a tad better. Otherwise, stick with pretending they never continued after part 1.

shrek 3- 6.5/10
