Shrek 2

About the story

Continuing the first film's style, this story once again playfully subverts classic fairy tales. After a romantic honeymoon, Shrek and Princess Fiona return to the swamp. Invited by Fiona's parents, King Harold and Queen Lillian, the ogre couple take their donkey and set off in grand fashion for Far Far Away. When the king and queen see their long-absent daughter and her new husband, delight turns to shock, and the trouble seems to begin. Fiona's Fairy Godmother had long ago sent her own son, Prince Charming, to the castle to slay the dragon and rescue the princess, only for Shrek to get there first. King Harold hires the famed ogre slayer Puss in Boots, while the Fairy Godmother intends to reclaim the daughter-in-law she had in mind.
