Discussion:
Ninnie: Not the best animated movie but definetely a good and funny one!

Victoria: Agree. It's entertaining and good at the moment but it's not a movie that will make you go "OMG You HAVE to see it" to someone. 

Ninnie: True! What do you think about the choice of voices? I have to say it was a bit wierd seeing/ hearing Jonah Hill as an evil person Haha. 

Victoria: My thought exactly ! But I kind of got used to all the voices after a while, so it didn't really bug me. In the end the voices were suitable, I thought. 

Ninnie: Me too. So who should watch it, age and so on?

Victoria: I definitely think it's as much a kids movie as a movie for grown ups. Or like. My age. And I'm sure my parents would enjoy it too. So yeah. 

Ninnie: Good and bad part?

Victoria: I'll take the good part- well it's a good movie, and nicely made and all that. And they made it good in the sense that you are on Megaminds side, although he is the bad guy, but you will still feel sorry for him. Kinda.. What do you have to add, or say about any bad parts?

Ninnie: It doesn't really have "bad parts", but it's just not a movie that will give you a "wow-feeling", I guess. 

Sum up: Good, average animated family movie that is worth watching, but won't make you go "OMG It's SO good!" 

Ninnie: 3,8/5

Victoria: 3,5/5

Plot: Shrek misses the time back when people were scared of him and he had a peaceful life. He is tricked into signing a contract that will make him the ogre he used to be for only a day. But he didn't really read the fineprint.

Discussion:
Ninnie: Not the best one of Shrek movies but still a funny one!
Victoria: Definitely. Shrek is always gonna be Shrek, and if you like the other 3 movies you will enjoy this one too.
Ninnie: Yeah! Hm, ok this was a tough one to make a review of. So what's bad about it?
Victoria: Maybe the fact that a fourth movie wasn't really neccessary. On the other hand it's fun to see Shrek and Fionas kids. And what's good about it?
Ninnie: It's an exciting story and of course the characters are funny as usual. Who should watch it?
Victoria: Well if you HAVE seen the other 3 ones I don't think you should miss this one. If you haven't seen the other ones I would suggest you'd catch those ones first.

Sum up: Not the best Shrek movie, but an exciting, entertaining and nice story.

Ninnie: 3,9/5

Discussion:
Victoria: I thought it was a cute movie ! And that it was made in clay was cool, kinda like Wallace & Gromit.
Ninnie: Yes I really liked that Marys story was in sepia and Max's black and white and some small colored details. It made it personal. What did you think about the story itself?
Victoria: The story was interesting, I thought they made it really good. This is not like anything (kinda) you've seen before- it's always nice to watch something different.
Ninnie: Yes true! Some people might find it dull, but I really enjoyed it. Laughed a few times and I was really sympathizing with them.
Victoria: Yeah. It's a weird yet very interesting movie, and I was really "stuck" in it and was interested in how it would end- would they ever meet and how etc?
Ninnie: Anything bad?
Victoria: If you're really tired it is very easy to fall asleep while watching it since it is very gray and slow in a way.


Sum up: An Interesting and different story that requires attention, which is worth it.

Victoria: 3,9/5
Ninnie: 3,9/5
