I saw Shrek 2 yesterday evening. They managed to do a great job, and it was just as good as the first in my opinion.
It is different. You already know some of the characters. So you get right to it.
The CG is fantastic. There are some scenes in which it looks so real. They have done a great job there.
The new characters are fun, especially Antonio's Puss in Boots character. Jennifer Saunders (From Ab Fab, and French and Saunders) was really good as the fairy godmother.
The fun comes from the small side gags, like having a "Sir Justin" poster, FarBucks, and the like. They somehow make a movie that is fun for kids, and that adults can get something out of.
I heard that they are already working on Shrek 3 and 4. Wow.
