Kung Fu Panda

Don't let the commercials and endless tie-ins fool you.

It was a fantastic movie.  Frankly, one of the better Kung Fu movies I've seen in a while.  Don't let the fact that it is a CGI animal movie turn you off.

It was awesome.  The opening sequence alone was cool and funny at the same time.

I watched it with my girls. Extremely funny... I laughed out loud more than once and the CGI fight scenes and animations were outstanding.  Beware of the pinky!  I will say no more.

Both my daughter and I are eagerly waiting for it to hit the theaters here. It looks like a really funny movie.

The entire Coil family went to the opening show of Kung Fu Panda. We loved it!

We saw the Swedish dubbed movie, I would have preferred seeing it with the right voices but still it was a really funny movie.

The voice actors were good but some of them were wasted in their roles.  It wasn't until afterwards when I saw the credits that I realized the Lucy Liu, Jackie Chan, and Angelina Jolie were in the cast.

I knew that Angelina Jolie was in the movie, but I didn't know about Lucy Liu or Jackie Chan until after the movie also...and then I was playing the movie back in my head trying to see if I recognized either of their voices...

I guess Jack Black and Dustin Hoffman got to speak more than the others. Besides does Angelina have a memorable voice? Or maybe she does but normally our attention is focused elsewhere. :)

Since it is about Kung Fu I guess they just had to get Jackie Chan in there somehow.

They did a good job and everything but it did not add.  Not a complaint, just a personal opinion.  Either way, it was a very successful job.
