'Shrek 3' at Savoy 2

‘Shrek’ has returned. The much loved animation movie, categorised of the genre of action, adventure, comedy and fantasy, Shrek-3 will be released on October 12 at Savoy-2, Wellawatte.

Following 2001's Shrek and 2004's Shrek- 2, in Shrek-3, prickly ogre is assigned a hard task. When Fiona's father and King of Far Far Away passes away, the clumsy Shrek becomes the immediate successor to the throne.

Being king isn't for everyone--especially if you're an ogre who smells like the shallow end of a swamp. When Shrek married Fiona, the last thing he wanted was to rule Far Far Away, but when his frogger-in-law, King Harold, suddenly croaks, Shrek is quickly fitted for the crown.

Now, unless the reluctant would-be king can find a suitable replacement, he'll be royally screwed for the rest of his days. As if Shrek didn't have enough on his plate, Princess Fiona has another little surprise on the way. With his head spinning and his belly in knots, Shrek sets off on a quest to find the only other possible heir to the throne, Fiona's long-lost cousin Artie, an underachieving medieval high schooler.

While the ogre is away, his old nemesis Prince Charming rears his handsome head and returns to the kingdom of Far Far Away with redemption on his shallow little mind. Even with Donkey and the ever-so-suave Puss in Boots by their side, it's going to take an ogre-sized effort--and a whole lot of help from Fiona and her band of princesses--for Shrek and Artie to save the day and find their own "Happily Ever After."

Co-directed by Raman Hui and Chris Miller 'Shrek-3' is produced by Dreamworks Animation and distributed by Paramount Pictures.
