Shrek is a great film for everyone. Kids will adore it and adults will love it as well. It has a great cast, with a fabulously witty story, and the right music at the right time. For its day (2001) the state of the art computer animation was brilliant.
The previous zillion reviews will tell you everything else you need to know. So buy this and Shrek 2 and get Toy Story and Toy Story 2 and you'll have all the best computer animated classics to date.
