    Donkey: "My mama used to always say, 'Christmas ain't Christmas till somebody cries!' Usually that someone's me."


    Christmas may be a new concept to gassy green giant Shrek (Mike Myers), but when Fiona (Cameron Diaz) tells him she wants their first family holiday to be speci...( read more)al, he vows to make it memorable. The big day arrives, bringing with it Donkey (Eddie Murphy) and a host of uninvited revelers who threaten to undo Shrek's carefully planned celebration. Shrek's trademark of inserting crude humor to prevent the special from becoming far too sickly sweet, it stays true to the trilogy as he wishes audience members "a smelly Christmas to all and to all a gross night." the Halls manages to continue in the spirit of the sequel by crafting a special that will not only entertain the little ones but also ring as true as Puss in Boots's bell for adults who find themselves stretched way too thin during the holiday season.

    It's a nice short little Christmas animation and that's about it. Perfect for keeping the kids quiet for 26 minutes on Christmas day. All the voices are back but there's a distinct lack of any humour. Donkey just goes way passed annoying and Shrek seems to get picked on. The use ...( read more)of music just seems sticked in any old place, but at least another Eels tune was used.

    Short animation with Shrek characters getting into the spirit of Christmas.

    Could have been a lot better if it was longer like the other 3 movies. The music was good too.
