Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Enthusiastic, big and a little clumsy, Po works in his family’s noodle shop while daydreaming about becoming a Kung Fu master. His dreams soon become reality when he is unexpectedly chosen to join the world of Kung Fu and study 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 hero into reality? Po puts his heart and his girth into the task, and ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths. Amazon.com: 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.

![]() Rating: - My boys love this movieMy six year old and four year old love this movie, and as movies that get played over and over in my house, I find this one repeatedly entertaining. The nature of good and evil here does confuse my elder son, as he perplexed that one teacher can create a very good and a very evil student. Still, he is puzzling out that the world is a little more complicated than he once thought and having a great time doing so. The movie is fun, and if it makes a kid think a little --all the better. Rating: - H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E!I guess I've been spoiled by Pixar and I guess Dreamworks doesn't care for my money because this is one of the worst animated movies since I can remember. On the other hand, the toddlers might like it because it's pretty and it's animated but otherwise it's empty and just an excuse for Hollywood to do what it's best at...making money. If you're an adult looking to be entertained, please don't bother. If you want your kid to leave you alone for a minute buy it and play it over and over again. In the ...

Of course, it's silly -- do you know any pandas who can cook noodle soup? Of course, it's violent -- it's kung fu at it's cartoon best! One of my favorite scene was the one where the panda came puffing up the stairs to save his mentor! Gash, if I had to climb that many stairs, I'd be puffing away, too! LOVE that panda! Jack Black did very well ... Read More Rating: - Grin and Bear It"Kung Fu Panda" has a pretty good kick. You're given the standard boiler-plate unlikely hero makes good plot, with Jack Black as Po the Panda and Dustin Hoffman as his not-so-willing coach, Master Shifu. The "Furious Five" are all super-jocks that think this oafish bear doesn't belong in their rarefied air, but Po eventually winds them over with pluck, wit and courage. The evil villain Tai Lung (voiced superbly by Deadwood's Ian MacShane) comes back to get revenge on past discretions; can Po save his beloved ...
