    An absolute Shrektacle.

    Antonio Banderas carries that film farther than he had any right to.

    And any time a film’s climactic moments are set to Bonnie Tyler’s “I need a hero”, it’s a treat. (See also: Short Circuit 2.)

      Saints Row 3’s final mission used it too, for both of its possible variants. It worked way better than it had any right to.

        That moment was AWESOME. I feel like the track was a deliberate choice to nudge the player to the

        "right way" to finish the mission.

        I always save Shaundi. :p

        It made you feel like a badass no matter how ridiculous you made your Boss avatar by that time LOL.
