Brilliant animation and humor, in spite of the odds against a food-loving panda becoming 'The' Dragon Warrior, bring viewers willingly into this colorful film of self discovery, change and fulfillment. There are some scenes that display extreme martial arts which may be considered too violent for some. Stars Jack Black and Ian McShane.
Kung Fu Panda brings Po, a panda, son of a noodle-maker who just happens to be a duck, face to face with his dream and destiny in the Valley of Peace. Po, who has a touching sense of humor about his weight, body odor and clumsiness, dreams of being a warrior and it is a Dragon Warrior he becomes. The clever travels of Po to become his destiny and to defeat the evil, imprisoned Tai Lung, involves the eventual friendship of the 'terrible 5' martial arts protectors of this little valley. Master Shifu, greatest kung fu master, likewise learns again that if you believe, then destiny follows.
