It's more of everyone's favorite animated ogre, Shrek. If you liked the first one (and who didn't?), you'll like the second. It's not as fresh as the original (it's a sequel after all), but still packs plenty of laughs. Entertaining, just don't expect anything new.
Hilarious commentary from a bunch of modern-day 10-13 year olds that are sat in front of some "classic" arcade and console games mostly from the 80s. Having played most of these games "in the day", I can't help feeling both indignant and somewhat abashed.
