2010 was a surprisingly great year for DreamWorks animated movies. How to Train Your Dragon came out in March to rave reviews and an impressive box office turnout. While Shrek Forever After met with indifference at the time, I think people have warmed to it. On November 5th, the studio released Mega...

In 2010, DreamWorks Animation completed the main Shrek film series with its fourth installment, Shrek Forever After. Shrek the Third is the only Shrek film I saw in the theater;, I saw Shrek Forever After by chance when my grandmother got us the DVD. I didn’t like the movie much, but it was st...

In 2007, following the release of Shrek the Third, DreamWorks Animation would do the unthinkable and make a film that’s arguably even worse. The meme formerly known as Bee Movie is a 90-minute adventure comedy starring Jerry Seinfeld as a bee named Barry. The film was a middling box office suc...
