The final rotten movie on the list is another “Shrek” sequel in which Antonio Banderas reprises his voice role as Puss in Boots. For “Shrek Forever After,” the entire core voice cast returned along with many notable names from the sequels, as well as a few new additions including Jon Hamm, Craig Robinson, Kristen Schaal, Lake Bell, Kathy Griffin, Jane Lynch, Ryan Seacrest, and Walt Dohrn as this sequel’s main villain, Rumpelstiltskin.

The story picks up years after “Shrek the Third” with Shrek and Fiona living a simple, domesticated life with their children. Rumpelstiltskin tricks Shrek into signing a contract that magically transports him to a parallel world where his entire species is in danger, where Fiona has no idea who he is, and where Puss in Boots has really let himself go. Though it fared moderately better with critics than “Shrek the Third,” “Shrek Forever After” still lands leagues below the first two “Shrek” movies. Critic Deborah Ross of The Spectator came down hard on this sequel, writing “The rot set in with the third film, I think, and now, with the fourth, it’s decomposed and gone to that black sludge you get at the bottom of the bin.”
