Kung Fu Panda Review!
Kung Fu Panda Review!
Meet poe: A big, fat, smelly panda who loves kung fu and who’s father wants him to make noodles. Master oogway of the kung fu jade palace has a vision of a bad kung fu warrior breaking out of jail so he and shifu decide to find the dragon warrior. The famous five warriors of the jade palace show everyone what they got and it comes to the time for oogway to choose the dragon warrior. Poe shoots himself up in the air with fire works and lands head first infront of the famous five. Oogway ends up pointing at poe and says he is the dragon warrior. So for 3 days shifu tries to train poe to be a kung fu master while shifu and the famous five warriors think he is a joke and shouldn’t be there. Meanwhile, a bad kung fu warrior breaks out of prision in pursuit of his old master and the dragon scroll. Can poe help the vally of peace or is all this not going to work out?
Well, kung fu panda is a movie of great action and adventure but is also good with its emotional and educational feel at small times. It is filled with great kung fu information and also has the great idea that poe cannot learn kung fu without food.
The movie has a lot of famous names withit like Jack Black, Jackie Chan and Lucy Liu to name a few. The character poe, played by Jack Black, had that crazy Jack Black feel to the character which gives a familiar feeling to those who know of Jack Black’s work.Any of the other guest stars you really can’t tell its them till the credits.
The movie was animated and created by dreamworks, the creators of Shrek, and the animation and the look of the panda right away reminded me of Shrek and the styles and emotions of shrek. I also liked at the beginning where poe is having a dream where he is a kung fu master and is beating up bad guys and it has a great anime look to it, like the look of the anime style scene to Horton Hears A Who.
So Kung Fu Panda is a great movie especially to take kids to. It is a great, fun and enjoyable movie! Speaking from experience I left this movie with a great, fun feeling to it. I give Kung Fu Panda 7½ /10.

The first Kung Fu Panda was certainly lucrative enough to inspire a sequel, even if the second makes half as much as the first that wouldn’t be too bad

I doubt a sequel is in order but it is possible

I loved this movie, the action was on point it made it, I was amaze by how good the animated fight scenes were, this was one of better animated movies I’ve seen in a while.
