Kung Fu Panda

A Dreamworks animation, Kung Fu Panda has a pretty hilarious plot.

Po, the panda, always dream of being part of the martial art world. He resents and is depressed working in the family's noodle shop. He dreams of being along side of the powerful legendary Furious Five (Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey).

On the day of the appointment of the Dragon Warrior by the Jade Palace, Po was selected as the Chosen One by Master Oogway! Poor panda is elated without realising that he has to face the most fearsome Tai Long very soon. He was then trained by Master Shifu, using the rather unorthodox but effective method!

As with all Disney animation, happy ending is always almost guarantee. Panda saves the day and defeated Tai Long, bring peace once again to the Valley of the Peace. I wont' reveal too much as this will most definitely spoilt the fun of watching this light-hearted animation. There are plenty of humorous and funny moments and happenings during the entire animation. You will not fall short of laughter.

Only sad thing (which is pretty usual) is a wrong portrayal of Chinese culture in ancient China. This mistake has been repeated many times by Disney. Then again, if taken with a pinch of salt, this movie is truly entertaining and excellent for the whole family. Aside from that, there are a couple of quotes I adore very much.

Favourite Quotes:
Panda (in his dream):
"Awesome has no price. Nor does attractiveness."

Master Oogway:
"Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift, that's why it is called present."

Rating: 4 out of 5 fairy clouds. A movie worth watching over the weekend. Great for all ages!
