Shrek Forever after.
DVD and BLU-Ray,
It’s been a long time since Shrek first came on the scene. Computer animation has changed a lot; it makes me wish they would remake the original with the new tech.
Shrek longs for a simpler life without all his responsibilities and his swamp back to its original state. The plot of every Shrek movie by the way. Making a deal with Rumplestiltskin, he ends up never being born alter the world and everyone else for the worse.
The fat alternate reality Puss is one of the funniest parts of the movie.
Eddie Murphy’s voice acting sounded very unconvincing.
Cameron Diaz seems to have just phoned it in.
Mike Myers seems to have better luck with his voice then he does with his physical acting.
The story wasn’t so great and seemed like just random filler.
This is supposed to be the final Shrek movie. But they all have been worth a few laughs and made a ton of money so we will just have to see. I doubt it will be the last.

Knight and Day.
Knight and Day.
DVD and Blu Ray
Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz star in a comedic spy movie. Sounds like a hit. Yet when I saw a advertisement for the DVD release I was a little stumped it seemed funny and action packed. But why hadn't I heard of it.
After reading online that the movie went through 5 directors and a series of rewrites and casting changes, I suspected it was terrible. I still sat down and watched it.
Tom Cruise plays a secret agent who supposedly went rouge stealing a perpetual energy source the size of a battery. Cameron Diaz gets involved by forcing her way onto a airplane filled with agents and Tom Cruise. She doesn't know who to believe because Cruise acts totally insane for the majority of the movie.
This movie is really fun, packed with a lot of decent jokes, funny sayings, satire and espionage. Like when Tom Cruise shoots a fireman in the leg and tells him he'll be a hero and probably get a promotion, and that it's just a flesh wound.
Peter Scarsguard plays protagonist to the two main characters but had no real character development and his whole character seemed to be a glorified extra.
It really is too bad that this movie didn't do so well in the theaters, a sequel would have been fun to watch.
I don't really know why it is called knight and day though.
