Kung Fu Panda - review
My daughter went to a movie theater for the first time last week and saw the new Jack Black / Dreamworks animated movie, “Kung Fu Panda”.
The film is a fairly simple ‘fish out of water’ story focusing on a big fat panda that dreams of becoming a kung fu master. He accidentally is declared the Dragon Warrior and begins training to battle the most dangerous and evil creature that has just escaped from prison.
And that’s basically the whole movie. It’s fun and cute and flashy, but there’s not a lot there. The other good warriors in the movie are all voiced by fairly famous people, but each has only a handful of lines. I was kind of hoping to hear more from Jackie Chan, but he only has maybe four or five lines.
It was fun though. Much better than most computer animated movies, but not an instant classic.
