this movie restored my faith in humanity. i have no doubt that this is the second coming of christ reincarnated. for hardcore catholics like myself it is clear that this is a gift from God himself. If I may, I will quote the Bible:
"Christmas ain't Christmas 'til somebody cries"- Psalm Bodyoncetoldme 4:20.
I definitely cried in this movie. watching this is an experience unlike any other. i feel my sins wash away as shrek tells his christmas story.
the christmas party in this movie is clearly a contemporary retelling of The Last Supper. Shrek's character development and epiphany at the end of this movie preaches Jesus of Nazareth's message. Love thy neighbor as thyself. Shrek learns this and in the process, reminds us all that we are creatures capable of love and acceptance.
