What's a panda to do when his dreams of kung-fu awesomeness awake to the cold reality of noodle-making? Clumsy, overweight Po (Jack Black) dreams of becoming a kung fu master like China's revered "furious five," but instead seems destined to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather in the restaurant business. When great leader Oogway has a vision that the imprisoned kung fu warrior Tai Lung (Ian McShane) will soon escape, he declares it time to choose China's dragon warrior--one kung fu master deemed worthy of possessing the dragon's scroll and its secret to limitless power. Po and all the townspeople rush to the Jade Palace atop the highest mountain to witness the contest between Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogan), Crane (David Cross) and Viper (Lucy Liu), but Po is locked outside the palace. After a miracle of sorts, Po lands inside the palace gates, where he is chosen as the dragon warrior and placed under the tutelage of the decidedly non-plussed master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman). An unconventional student to say the least, hilarity reigns as Shifu tries desperately to make Po into some semblance of a kung fu warrior. Can Po possibly fulfill his destiny as dragon warrior, or was Oogway's final decision a critical mistake? A film rich with hilarious moments, superior animation, and an important message about believing in oneself and the power that comes from within, Kung Fu Panda is great entertainment that will have the whole family laughing and begging for more. (Ages 3 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

 Fun Movie January 6, 2009
J. Howard (Oklahoma)
This is a fun, fun movie. Maybe I'm just an old, old, little kid but it was fun to watch with my grandson!
 Cute, children will love it January 5, 2009
Val (RI)
Kung Fu Panda is a beautifully drawn movie that should appeal to a broad audience, but more so for younger children. While I enjoyed it, I think it's far too predictable and not as in-depth as other works by Dreamworks or Pixar. The plot is very simple and it doesn't pretend to be otherwise and kids will really get a kick out of the humour. I found myself laughing once or twice.
The voice cast is really great especially Dustin Hoffman and Jack Black. Again, the animation is brilliant and certainly some of the finest I've seen in a long while. All in all, a simple but fun movie that the whole family will enjoy.
Better Than I thought! January 3, 2009
Damon Smith (USA)
Kung Fu Panda was great. Good film for the whole family. I know there are some adults and teenagers that saw this movie and thought it was dumb, but thats your own fault for going to the movie in the first place. But then again, everyone has they're own opinions about movies. You either hate it or love it. But I loved it. The storyline was beautiful, special affects was well done, animation did extremely well. The actors for each animated character was perfect, Jack Black was a great choice for the voice of Po. If you didn't get the ending of this movie then oh well. Not everyone will understand. Easily one of the best movies of the year, next to The Dark Knight, Iron Man, and Wall-E to name a few of my other favorites.
