Animated; Soundtrack English; Sensor Matic In this meet-the-parents sequel to the romantic fairy tale in which two ogres fall in love, SHREK 2 brings the loveable green menace (voiced by Mike Meyers) back to the big screen for a second round of mischief. This time around, in addition to the voices of Cameron Diaz (as Shrek's sweetheart Fiona) and Eddie Murphy (as their companion Donkey), Julie Andrews and John Cleese chime in as Fiona's parents, Queen Lillian and King Harold. Surprising newcomer Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas)--a slyly funny tabby honed for swashbuckling adventure--joins the crew. Last but certainly not least, the conniving duo of vain Prince Charming (Rupert Everett) and his power-hungry mom, the Fairy Godmother (Jennifer Saunders), spice up the action.
When Fiona insists that her new husband Shrek visit her parents, they travel to Far Far Away (a Disneyfied medieval version of Hollywood) where everything goes wrong. The King and Queen are outraged to see their daughter married to an ogre, and while Fiona tries to calm them, Shrek sets out to find a solution. He finds it, in the form of a Happily Ever After potion, which only complicates matters, drawing all parties into a confused exchange of magic and spells, all for the sake of true love. With shimmering animation giving SHREK 2 near-3-D visuals, the witty scripting and eclectic pop music soundtrack keep the film hopping along with an upbeat pace. "Holding Out for a Hero" by Frou Frou, and "Livin' la Vida Loca" by Eddie Murphy are the most raucous of the film's many great songs, though more subtle numbers such as "Accidentally in Love" by Counting Crows, and "Little Drop of Poison" by Tom Waits certainly enrich some key scenes of this enjoyable family film. Shrek 2 Reviews: "[I]t's got heart and delirium in equal doses, as well as a firecracker rhythm all its own."
-- Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly "SHREK 2 is double the fun of the original: more magical and more technically assured."
-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "Mr. Banderas's campy suavity and Puss's convincingly animated fur add some new looks and rhythms to the formula."-- A. O. Scott, New York Times "[With] more elaborate visuals than the original and some great voice casting."-- Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times "[J]ust as funny, sweet and engaging as the first film starring the big galoot."-- Claudia Puig, USA Today "SHREK 2 is bright, lively and entertaining..."-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times "SHREK 2 is great."
-- Steve Sutherland, Uncut "[M]uch of the humour remains gleefully satirical."
-- Matthew Leyland, Sight and Sound "[A] gem in the bigger-better-snappier tradition of TOY STORY 2."

Shrek 2 film
$10.29
The greatest short cartoons featuring Disney favorite Goofy are featured in WALT DISNEY'S CLASSIC CARTOON FAVORITES STARRING GOOFY. The nine shorts in the collection are all from between 1941 and 1953, during the Golden Age of Disney cartoons, and exhibit the characteristically colorful and fluid animation that was the studio's hallmark. These Goofy cartoons were all directed by Jack Kinney, who is often given credit for combining Disney's professional style with the zaniness and manic pace featured in the competing Warner Bros. and MGM cartoons of the period. Two highlights of the collection are the beloved "The Big Wash" and "Father's Day Off." A number of the mock "instructional" cartoons that made Goofy famous are included, such as "The Art of Skiing," "How to Fish," "How To Swim," "How to Dance," and "Hold That Pose." Rounding out the collection are "Baggage Buster" and "Lion Down."

Michael Cimino, the director of THE DEER HUNTER and the ill-fated HEAVEN'S GATE, helmed this New Age action picture in 1996. Based on a screenplay by Charles Leavitt, the film stars Woody Harrelson as Dr. Michael Reynolds, a rich, young L.A. physician who worries more about promotions and buying a $2 million home for his family than about his patients. Reynolds is assigned a 16-year-old convicted murderer, Brandon Monroe (Jon Seda), as his new patient. Brandon is a half-Cherokee gang member who killed his own stepfather, has terminal cancer, resents his privileged doctors, and has beaten up several pediatricians who've tried to care for him. Brandon gets a gun while going to the bathroom at the hospital and kidnaps Reynolds, stealing a car. While constantly threatening his doctor's life, Brandon takes him on a trip to an Arizona Indian reservation with the aim of immersing himself in a magic lake which native tradition says has healing powers. Along the way, the pair meet up with motorcycle gang members, rattlesnakes, and several New Age philosophers. Eventually, the materialistic doctor and the young tough gain a grudging respect for each other's values, and Reynolds even steals money to buy Brandon medicine.
