Hell yeah, go Dreamworks

Rating: 8/10 (30 July 2015)

Animation studios should fight out it out like the other ones. Yes, i think this movie does just that
What's not to like in this movie? OMG from premise to the end, the movie keeps you engaged like crazy. You knew the Panda was gonna end up a fighter, but you don't know how. Are they gonna the route of Karate Kid, is it gonna end like Rocky but i think both these movies are unsuitable for kids, so how are they gonna succeed?
Well, you take the funny route, but then will it just be a slapstick comedy which just passes on scene by scene with no correlation? No, that is where exceptional direction comes to place. And you see that throughout the movie. Everything in this movie is just perfect for kids and surprisingly for adults as well
But apart from that lot of clichés in the movie.
The hero, a underdog who always fantasies Kung fu, Check.
The Villain,who wants to take on the underdog, Check.
A master who does not trust in the hero, Check.
The list could go on and on, but the director pulled off a masterpiece even with all these and that's remarkable. I have never been a fan of Jack Black, i liked him after Tropic Thunder, but the voice of Po in this is just perfect, no one could have done it better, he has the right voice of a innocent wannabe kung-fu champ and a fun panda, perfect casting. Other supporting characters are also done well, the only let down was Jackie Chan, am a big fan of him and would have seen him a bigger role, but i guess his actions are more enjoyable than his talks and hence was given a mellow character, i respect that.
Tai Lang is the scariest and perfect villain ever created by any animated movie. In my world, that guy could stand toe-to-toe with any human villains and still kick ass. He is just my favorite and the scenes he is in, just steals the show, the detailing was fantastic, he makes you feel, yes he has got to be the Dragon Warrior, come on, not the Panda, but the back story for not making him is buyable.
I have never been so entertained ever since Incredibles and i would say if the movie just had a little bit more Wow moments and better Family ties, i would say its better than incredibles. well that's a personal choice. But all in all a fantastic movie, you will have fun, laugh and made for everyone in the family.
