Kung Fu Panda

There's something about the look of Kung Fu Panda that is so novel and pleasing. Perhaps it's just that we haven't seen this vintage, Far East world in a computer-animated movie before.

The animation work is dazzling; it's lovingly detailed without being overdone (particularly the opening sequence, which is hand-drawn and looks like prints struck from ancient woodblocks).

As the credits roll, the film's many flaws come sharply into focus. But while it lasts, Kung-Fu Panda is something of a guilty treat.

Manages to entertain and dazzle, and parents won't beat themselves up for sitting through it, although what it teaches could fit on a fortune cookie.

This Panda delivers a cuddle more than a thump.

Hands down the most visually striking of DreamWorks Animation's releases, this lively CGI comedy is tailor-made for Jack Black.

The first Kung Fu Panda film will always be special, even if an even better version was waiting just around the corner.



Just by reading the title, one could immediately imagine the concept of “Kung Fu Panda”: a big, chubby animal who has to learn martial arts to save the world or something. But fortunately, the movie ended up being something MORE. Full review in Spanish.

The anthropomorphic version of Ancient China is full of fun and good life lessons as a panda learns how to be the Dragon Warrior.

There's not much to Kung Fu Panda, and it's gratingly predictable, but it's also entertaining, colorful, funny, and easy to enjoy.
