Movie Review : Kung Fu Panda

"Prepare for awesomeness!"

Directed by: Mark Osborne, John Stevenson
Featuring the voices of : Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Lucy Liu, Jacky Chan

From the makers of 'The Invicibles' and 'Shrek', comes a story about a Panda, fulfilling his destiny.

Enthusiastic, big and a little clumsy, Po (Jack Black) is the biggest fan of kung fu around with a dream of becoming a Kung Fu master. Hardly the candidate, Po's life takes a surprising turn, when he's unexpectedly chosen to fulfil an ancient prophecy.

Po then embarks on his kung fu training, alongside his idols, the legendary Furious Five: Tigress (Angelina Jolie); Crane (David Cross); Mantis (Seth Rogen); Viper (Lucy Liu); and Monkey (Jackie Chan) - under the leadership of their guru, Master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman).

Po and the furious 5.

But before they know it, an evil snow leopard Tai Lung (Ian McShane) hell bent on revenge has escaped from his prison and is headed their way. Will Po transform his dream of becoming a Kung Fu master into reality? Can he save them all from the treacherous Tai Lung?

Kung Fu Panda had all the ingredients for a hit movie. I mean, Jack Black is unquestionably brilliant as Po and though Jackie Chan only had like a 100 word script, the star studded cast were supported well. The story was interestingly funny, the script was witty and the comedy, spot on. And the animation? simply superb!
I am giving it an awesome rating of 9/10.

"There is no charge for awesomeness, or attractiveness", just the price of your movie ticket :)

Hope they make a sequel, soon. Keke.
