Featuring a new animated short film before the feature.

The great green ogre is back! After returning from their honeymoon, Shrek and Fiona learn that her parents, The King and Queen, have heard that she has married her true love and wish to invite him to their kingdom of Far Far Away. The catch is: Fiona's parents are unaware of the curse that struck their daughter and have assumed she married Prince Charming, not a 700-pound ogre with horrible hygiene and a talking donkey pal! As the over-zealous Fairy Godmother plots to destroy Shrek and Fiona's marriage, Shrek and Donkey team up with the sword-wielding Puss in Boots to foil her plans. True love is never easy! (Dir. by Andrew Adamson-Kelly Asbury-Conrad Vernon, 2004, USA, 92 mins., Rated PG)
