The release of the weekend in India. Po (voice Jack Black), the panda, is extremely funny. The film has borrowed a lot for classic kung fu movies (the dragon scroll, valley of peace, jade temple on top of the mountain etc) and kept in a more western comic with an overweight Po getting to be a real hero in the end. The side characters Monkey, Snake, tiger, mantis and crane are based on the classic kung fu styles.
The movie brings about memories of
Kung Fu Hustle (2004) and if you have enjoyed that Stephan Chow flick, you will definately have some fun in this movie. A clumsy hero coming good in the end, though predictable, is still worth watching for all the goof ups.
