Shrek 2

Everyone’s favorite ogre couple sets off to meet her parents, where an image-is-everything attitude will put their blind love to the test. The precious theme of the original is more explicit this time, yet the jokes come just as fast and furious. (This is the only kids’ movie I can think of that could get away with feeding the Little Mermaid to sharks.) With the returning voices of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz – and the ingenious addition of Antonio Banderas as Puss In Boots.
