What parents need to know

Cartoon violence and crude humor consistent with the earlier films, mild language, a few pop-culture jokes parents will catch but kids will miss. No real scares.

What's the story?

Felicia is the only kid in Far Far Away with a dad who's an ogre, a mom who's a queen, and a sense of humor she did not ask for. When she sneaks out to find out who she really is, Shrek and Donkey have to bring her home.

Is it any good?

DreamWorks has waited twenty years for this — the trailers suggest they're going hard on the original three-films energy with updated animation. The Zendaya casting alone has Gen-Z attention, and parents who grew up on Shrek are the secondary target.
