What's a panda to do when his dreams of kung-fu awesomeness awake to the cold reality of noodle-making? Clumsy, overweight Po (Jack Black) dreams of becoming a kung fu master like China's revered "furious five," but instead seems destined to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather in the restaurant business. When great leader Oogway has a vision that the imprisoned kung fu warrior Tai Lung (Ian McShane) will soon escape, he declares it time to choose China's dragon warrior--one kung fu master deemed worthy of possessing the dragon's scroll and its secret to limitless power. Po and all the townspeople rush to the Jade Palace atop the highest mountain to witness the contest between Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogan), Crane (David Cross) and Viper (Lucy Liu), but Po is locked outside the palace. After a miracle of sorts, Po lands inside the palace gates, where he is chosen as the dragon warrior and placed under the tutelage of the decidedly non-plussed master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman). An unconventional student to say the least, hilarity reigns as Shifu tries desperately to make Po into some semblance of a kung fu warrior. Can Po possibly fulfill his destiny as dragon warrior, or was Oogway's final decision a critical mistake? A film rich with hilarious moments, superior animation, and an important message about believing in oneself and the power that comes from within, Kung Fu Panda is great entertainment that will have the whole family laughing and begging for more. (Ages 3 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

 Stupendous December 1, 2008

I ordered this DVD for my grandson who lives in Virginia (I live in Mexico). It arrived on a very timely basis, and he watches very often (he is four).
Thanks, Amazon

Fantastic Movie December 1, 2008
M. Gabie (DOWNINGTOWN, PA USA)
This movie was a huge hit with my 5 and 7 year old. They watched it over and over. The best part about kids and movies that they've watched before is that they know when the funny scenes are coming - they sit on the edge of coach braced for a big laugh. There were plenty of them in this movie. Ultimately it comes down to enjoyment, which they truly got from this movie.
KUNG FU PANDA MOVIE November 30, 2008
Jill R. Priebe (PR DU CHIEN WI USA)
I was absolutely thrilled with the product and the movie was so good and cute. I will order from them again for sure. The movie was in excellent shape and described just like they said.
Terrific entertainment! November 30, 2008
Chris Wood (UK)
This is a kids movie done in the best way - lots of laughs, a great message, plenty of enjoyable asides and loads of bits and pieces adults can enjoy as well. The voice acting is top notch and with a great cast.
I laughed out loud in several places and the film never gave way to over the top cutseyness - it's great fun all the way through and very strongly recommended.
 I love Kung Fuuuuuu... November 30, 2008

My wife rented this movie last week for our almost-three-year-old son. Little did she expect that he and I would watch this movie about six times before returning it, and now we just bought it for him (us) as a gift for Christmas. The first run-through, our son didn't always pay his full attention to it, mainly because he's used to his mainstays (Cars, Toy Story, Nemo, Monster's Inc., and The Incredibles -- he's already following in Daddy's footsteps as a Pixar junkie), but the next day when asked what movie he wanted to watch, he asked for Kung Fu Panda. Since then he's been infatuated with the entire cast of characters. He especially likes the villain (should I be worried?).
This movie reinforces the lessons of "aspire to dream," "follow your dream," "don't judge a book by its cover,"...and also, of course, "always do your best." Anyway, this is a great movie, great animation, great story, and a great buy. Even for almost-three-year-olds as well as 38-year-olds. :-)
Oh yes, and don't be afraid of exposing your kids to the craziness that is Jack Black. He knows when to turn his Tenacious D off and on a la School of Rock or even King Kong, for that matter.
