Creators of the movie pulled back on the adult humor in this film. Although it's not as funny as the other "Shrek's" it's still humorous. Parents don't have to give thier kid's talks on bad behavior or crude jokes. Only two bad scenes that last about 6 seconds are in the movie. One in the beginning, where a lesbian vampire makes kissy faces at a king and if you look closely a naked witch-baby is crawling around outside (just the butt is shown.) And another also in the beginning where Rumplestilksen serves an alcoholic beverage with an eyeball in it to Shrek. Little kid's probabley won't notice though.

I love this movie.Shrek is back, with all the humor and adventure from Shrek, Fiona, Puss n' Boots, and Donkey.Shrek is tricked by Rumpelstiltskin and enters a different world, where he was never born.Donkey never met him, Fiona is fierce, Puss n' Boots is...fat (And he never met Shrek, either).In one scene, Donkey said a-- one time, but its not that bad for children over 7+.The theme is like ''a wonderful life'', but for the kids.And there some cartoon violence, Shrek and Fiona kiss, but it's pretty mild.Great movie, I highly recommend it.

'Be thankful for what you have' is the message in this movie but to a kid under age of 6 they can't figure that out. It's an adult concept given to a child. The action scenes are great, my son didn't understand why none of Shrek's friends knew him after the contract was signed and sitting there explaining the meaning of a movie during a movie defeats the purpose.

Went tonight and both of my boys, 6 and 4, liked it. I thought it was definitely the lesser of the 4 movies, but still had some good parts. Looking forward to the Puss in Boots movie!!

Even if your young children loved the earlier Shrek movies, think twice about taking them to see this one. It is much darker and scarier than the others. The premise -- what would the world be like if Shrek had never been born -- is not easily grasped by young children. We left halfway through because there was nothing fun or happy about this movie. My son was frightened and kept asking why the villian was " so mean" or why the ogres "wanted to hurt other people." There is no need to show so much nastiness in a movie for young children.

This way okay, but kind of disappointing for the last Shrek. They didn't do as good of a job with the script; it wasn't as funny. My kids watched if fine, but didn't even mention it after we left and couldn't remember a detail later. (We always ask what they like about a movie.) It's probably not worth the extra 3D price. If you love Shrek, you'll want to see it--but don't have high expectations.

Way better than Shrek the third, the third Shrek sucked! This one is alot more funnier and cooler!

Hey blue bunny you read my mind! It is like wonderful life exepet its like in kid version!There is some bombs in the movie and some kissing. But it was not good nor bad. Not the best Sherk movie. I think it was the worst.
