Shrek 2 Video Game Lameness

Nine heroes, special moves, tons of fun jokes, candy-canes, cookies and multiplayer action. Dang, there's not much wrong here. Oh wait! The camera angles will drive you bonkers. That and it would have been nice if the actors from the movie did the voice acting in the game, but the heroes still sound good, so it's not really a big deal.
