Kung Fu Panda

So the rather clumsy and inept "Po" has dreams of saving the world! His real job is working in a noodle bar where one day, maybe, he will learn the secret ingredient that gives their dishes that special flavour. Meantime, the ageing "Oogway", the most learned of creatures, has informed his stalwart lieutenant "Shifu" that he will soon have to defend their "Valley of Peace" from the vengeful "Tai Lung" who, though currently incarcerated in a seemingly impregnable prison, is set to come and wreak some havoc. "Po" is determined to attend the selection ceremony and, well yes - you've guessed. He e...

Wow, what a surprise this was! It looked like the stupidest movie ever by the trailers. Bit then when you actually sit down and watch it, it's not only one if the funniest, but also one of the most mature, profound, intense, action packed films you'll ever see! The perfect example of a "Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover" movie.

**Total Score: 9.5/10**...

DreamWorks Animation's Kung Fu Panda is a funny, action-packed animated martial arts movie all about Po, a clumsy panda voiced by Jack Black, being mistaken for the Dragon Warrior. The animation and music are also exceptional, capturing the Chinese setting brilliantly. I did, however, dislike that the movie made the Furious Five slightly mean-spirited and how Tai Lung, the main villain, was a bit inconsistent with the way his villainy was portrayed. Basically, this is the weakest film in the franchise....

We've been conditioned to expect action movie heroes to be flawless, athletic figures ready for combat from minute one. But every once in a while, a story comes along that flips this expectation inside out so honestly that it's impossible not to fall in love. Kung Fu Panda plays with the hero's journey cliché by placing the fate of the world in the paws of the most unlikely protagonist possible. It proves that heart and the will to learn matter just as much as brute strength, resulting in one of the most well-rounded and charismatic animated films ever made.

The film's pacing hits the nail...
