Movie Review: Kung Fu Panda - 4/5


Enthusiastic, big and a little clumsy, Po is the biggest fan of Kung Fu around…which doesn’t exactly come in handy while working every day in his family’s noodle shop. Unexpectedly chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy, Po’s dreams become reality when he joins the world of Kung Fu and studies alongside his idols—the legendary fighters Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey—under the leadership of their guru, Master Shifu. But before they know it, the vengeful and treacherous snow leopard Tai Lung is headed their way, and it’s up to Po to defend everyone from the oncoming threat. Can he turn his dreams of becoming a Kung Fu master into reality? Po puts his heart-and his girth-into the task, and the unlikely hero ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths.


At it's heart, Kung Fu Panda is basically an underdog "sports" movie ..
but waaaay more fun than any other movie recently.
It's about this fat panda Po, who is a big fan of the martial arts, and when one-day an evil leopard named Tai Lung escapes from his prison, the legendary fighters now seek the Dragon warrior, who will the given the 'Dragon Scroll', which would grant him ... well, it wud make him stronger.
But by a strange accident Po, ends up being selected for training, and the all hell-sets in .

This movie works on so many levels, but mainly for the lovable and cute Po, the Panda, voiced by Jack Black.

The animation too is pretty good, but it is for the story that most people will fall in love with this movie.
Watch this movie .. cuz it is one of the movie recent movies which will give u ur money's worth.

and i'd give Kung FU Panda 4/5 ...
one of the best and funniest animation films of recent times...
