Hello All,
Unfortunately I’m once again quite tired after a long day but I will try my best to give you the best review I can. Having missed the other January animated movie, I figured I’d catch up with this week’s newest release. I was going to do this yesterday, but I basically got snowed out. So how does the end of the Kung Fu Panda trilogy hold up? Let’s find out shall we?
Plot Summary - When an ancient warrior and former friend of Oogway attacks him in the spirit realm and steals his chi, he returns to the normal world bent on destroying his legacy, leaving only Po who's now been tasked with becoming a teacher, while also dealing with the return of his birth father.
Pros - The animation in the film is the best it’s ever been. It has these really cool and colorful scenes that the 3D really brings to life. It also adds some really cool story elements to the mythos of the world, as it manages to tie the three films together almost seamlessly. The cast is really solid too, although some people get less screen time than others, we do see a few scenes more withe five and some of the lesser seen ones getting some moments as well. Even Po seeing the panda village is cool because it does give you a really nice sense of what the panda culture is like. It paces really well too, at 95 minutes it doesn’t overstay it’s welcome and it still manages to deliver some really cool scenes in that time.
Cons - If I have any complaints, it’s maybe that it has a few cliched moments, but honestly even seeing them coming I still enjoyed everything leading up to it.
Final Score - 10/10
Honestly, and maybe it was the day I had, but I did really enjoy this movie. To me, it has just right balance to make this a perfectly entertaining film for both kids and adults and it’s definitely the best January film out now.
I’ll probably see Fifty Shades of Black, but I have to be in the right mindset of it considering I skipped and will forever skip Fifty Shades of Grey, and from what I hear it’s a shot for shot spoof so…...yay……
Until then, I’ll see you folks at the movies.
