Throwback Thursday Review: 'Kung Fu Panda' Review

This review begins what will be my brief series of Throwback Thursday reviews leading up to  Kung Fu Panda 3  Next week I will continue with my review of Kung Fu Panda 2.

'Kung Fu Panda' Review


Nominated For: Best Animated Feature.

Kung Fu Panda, just the idea of a Panda learning Kung Fu seems at least a bit intriguing. Essentially, that is a basic outline of the plot. Kung Fu Panda isn't quite at the level of any of Pixar's films, although it's a Dreamworks Animation film so it's not exactly expected to, but that means that while the film is quite entertaining it doesn't exactly have the mature themes and depth that many Pixar films contain. As I said, the film is quite entertaining and that's in large part to a number of things.  The animation is beautiful, there's some decent humor, and some really cool action sequences. The major martial arts action sequences are the main draw to the film and are all particularly enjoyable. I can't speak too much about the voice cast but everyone seems to be perfectly cast paired with their respective characters. In particular, Jack Black is quite amusing as Po. Overall, I can say Kung Fu Panda held up to how I remembered it and certainly remains among some of Dreamwork Animation's greatest animated films, alongside the Shrek and How To Train Your Dragon films.

Film Assessment: B
