Kung Fu Panda : Osborne & Stevenson

Dreamworks has always been at the helm of animation , churning out full-on extravaganza like the Shrek Series.

Kung-Fu Panda , takes me back as an audience to the vintage Jackie Chan flicks with a vengeance streak attached to it.

The difference here is that the characters are full-of-life making them all body n flesh.

An Ensemble ... An Ovation
  1. Panda aka 'Po' (Jack Black is exhilarating)
  2. Tigress ( Angelina Jolie is first-rate )
  3. Monkey (Jackie Chan is lost in the crowd)
  4. Mantis
  5. Crane
  6. Viper (Lucy Liu is just ok)
  7. Master Shifu ( Dustin Hoffman is brilliant )
The Panda is a kung-fu fanatic ,works as a noodle waiter & is a helping hand to his father.

One fine day , the Tortoise Master decides to choose a dragon warrior to fight an evil protégé of Master Shifu , the snow leopard Tai Lung , on the premonition of it escaping from prison.

Panda , comically , is the chosen one , and the story captures the essence of 'Po's journey through the Kung-Fu triumph.

Kung Fu Panda is one of the finest entertaining animation movie in a long time , Pixar has serious competition!!

I just loved it , an evergreen repeat for sure ....

Rating : 4.5/5.0
