About
As of 2026, it's 22 years old.
Shrek 2 pulled off the rare feat of being even better than the original, sending the ogre to meet the in-laws in a fairy-tale Beverly Hills and introducing Puss in Boots, a tiny assassin cat who disarms everyone with enormous pleading eyes. It was, for a while, the highest-grossing animated film ever.
Sharper jokes, a killer 'Holding Out for a Hero' climax, and a Hollywood-skewering Far Far Away made it a sequel that genuinely improved on a classic.
Funnier, bigger, and somehow sweeter, Shrek 2 is the rare follow-up that out-ogred the original.
