Po the Panda is the laziest animals in all of the Valley of Peace, but unwittingly becomes the chosen one when enemies threaten their way of life.
Who's Involved:
Directed by Mark Osborne, John Stevenson. With Jack Black, Ian McShane, Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman. The Dragon Warrior has to clash against the savage Tai Lung as China's fate hangs in the balance. Runtime: 1 hour, 35 minutes. Bottom line: Enjoyable but not quite as good as the first. When Dreamworks released 'Kung Fu Panda' in 2008, no one predicted its success. 'Shrek' was still the studio.
Rating: PG

Plot: What's the story about?
Enthusiastic, big and a little clumsy, Po is the biggest fan of Kung Fu around…which doesn’t exactly come in handy while working every day in his family’s noodle shop. Unexpectedly chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy, Po’s dreams become reality when he joins the world of Kung Fu and studies alongside his idols, the legendary Furious Five—Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey—under the leadership of their guru, Master Shifu. But before they know it, the vengeful and treacherous snow leopard Tai Lung is headed their way, and it’s up to Po to defend everyone from the oncoming threat. Can he turn his dreams of becoming a Kung Fu master into reality? Po puts his heart - and his girth - into the task, and the unlikely hero ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths.
