This film made use of the same limited, stop-motion-esque animation of the incredibly successful Spider-Verse series.

It tempers the studio’s propensity for pop culture callbacks with heartfelt storytelling and emotional moments.

It’s also one of the funniest animated movies ever made.

Whatever age you are, there’s something in Shrek 2 that you’ll find hilarious.

This is a happy ending heartily earned.
