If you loved The Invention of Lying, try Shrek the Third
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Comedy / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Invention of Lying, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Shrek the Third is
Swampy mist at dawn, a muddy throne. An unwilling king, a royal road trip, a teenage heir. This fairy tale parody loses some of its ogre-sized bite in its third go-round.
