Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, But right now our present is 'Kung Fu Panda'.

Rating: 7/10 (7 July 2008)

To be honest, despite reading flattering reviews, I didn't really expect much from this film.
It's not amazing, but it is entertaining and very humorous in parts, with the kung fu scenes sufficiently fulfilling need for epic- ness (for want of, not a better, but a more conventional, word).
However, it is the witty script that impressed me the most, and I suddenly harked back to the witty dialogue in the original 'Shrek'. Though conversely, to praise 'Panda' further, it is valid to say that this Dreamworks production adopts a more original storyline, backed up with equally as provoking dialogue.Not to insult 'Shrek' that is, because I prefer it- just clarifying the many post-modern references that support 'Shrek' in its comedy.
Yes, 'Kung Fu Panda' goes back to basics (well aside from the blatant Asian-kung-fu-animation-parody), and provides laughs in a more round-a-bout way. ...Again this is not necessarily a good thing.
I did enjoy it, and was mused by Jack Black. Felt like writing this comment purely because of some of the lines delivered throughout the film (some of which I have stolen for repeat purposes).
The End.
