Movie Review: Kung Fu Panda

I wanted to hold off on seeing this until all the kiddies went back to school because I knew it would be packed at most sessions and that all the young kids would be running around the cinemas or talking throughout the whole thing.

I can't wait to see Wall-E. (They showed the preview for it!) He looks so cute, but funnily he looks very much like No.5 from the movie Short Circuit (No.5 is alive)

Plot: Po the Panda is a lowly waiter in a noodle restaurant, who is a kung fu fanatic but whose shape doesn't exactly lend itself to kung fu fighting. In fact, Po's defining characteristic appears to be that he is the laziest of all the animals in ancient China. That's a problem because powerful enemies are at the gates, and all hopes have been pinned on a prophesy naming Po as the "Chosen One" to save the day. A group of martial arts masters are going to need a black belt in patience if they are going to turn this slacker panda into a kung fu fighter before it's too late.
