Surprisingly delightful. Sure it comes across as a little cheesy in parts, but all in all a very fun film that doesn't take itself too seriously. Very good movie!
Though it's an American film with lots of American stars doing the voices, the design ethic, philosophy and martial arts could all have come out of Hong Kong cinema. What else should I have expected from a movie that has two characters called the Shaw Brothers? Incredible animation on the action (the highlight for me is the chopstick fight) makes up for a certain lack of texture at times, though you know what? I wouldn't have minded if the whole movie had been in 2D like its awesome, Samurai Jack-type opening sequence. I was surprised to find Jack Black's performance pleasantly subdued. This isn't one of those Shreks or Aladdins filled to the brim with anachronisms. Authentic and sweet.
An enjoyable little flick. Somewhat disappointed that Jackie Chan did not get that many lines yet Dustin Hoffman's sage like wisdom towards the end is very well done. In conclusion, Kung Fu Panda is a cute, cheese stuffed, awesome animated film.
Has a few quality laughs, and it's worth a look for those that like a self-reverent look at the martial arts genre crossed with a typical cartoon comedy.

What a charming film! Great combination of martial arts, family fun and a surprisingly deep dose of Zen wisdom. Jack Black isn't even annoying!Wallmasterz

I wish the whole film looked like the opening sequence. The rest was just typical dreamworks.Showing items 1 – 15 of 20
