Movie review- Kung Fu Panda 2



Heather, Sky and I went to see Kung Fu Panda 2 in 3D over the weekend and it was awesome. Heather was a little iffy as she hasn't historically liked 3d but it didn't bother her and some of the scenes were amazing in 3D, especially the water scenes. The story itself was really good, basically Po figures out he was adopted and finds out where he comes from. The voice work was great with all the major characters returning, Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman, Seth Rogan, David Cross, Jackie Chan & Lucy Liu as the biggest stars. The new villian Shen a Peacock who was exciled for creating an unstopable weapon voiced by Gary Oldman. I liked how they went with a faster, graceful villian in the sequal rather than trying to one up the toughness & brute strenght in the original. I also like how they decided to make him a white peacock rather than greenish blue, not really sure why.



The flashbacks were also done really well with a completely diffent anamation style that I enjoyed a lot contrasting with the rest of the movie.
