Shrek becomes a bit overwhelmed with the day to day responsibilities of raising his family and dealing with his celebrity status which really makes him feel like his family has become a circus side show.The townsfolk aren't afraid of him, seeing him as a sort of lovable, funny mascot. He's really cherished by the people in his village but Shrek doesn't see it that way. Shrek appears to be going through a midlife crisis and wonder what life would be like if he had his old life back?
The evil trickster Rumplestillskin (Walt Dohrn) makes a deal with him that he can have that life back for a day, but he tricks him into signing a contract in which he's chosen a day when Shrek wasn't born. So Shrek gets to experience what his life would've be been like if he hadn't saved Pheona, if they didn't have children, if Donkey and Puss in Boots were not his friends. As you can imagine he begins to value and appreciate his life, his family and friends immensely when he sees what his life is like without them.
Rumpelstilskin's(Walt Dohrn) slick move makes him the King and the Ogres his slaves but Fiona (Cameron Diaz) is the fierce leader of an underground resistance that's trying to free the town's citizens and Ogres from it's tyranical ruler. Shrek has to convince Donkey that he's his best friend and convince Fiona that she's in love with him or he won't get his real life back.
There's a lot riding on Shrek (Mike Myers) making Fiona (Cameron Diaz) come around and I don't want to spoil it for you. This final chapter is worth seeing with the whole family! It inspires you to see the value in your own life and appreciate what you have instead of longing for something else.
