Thoughts on Kung Fu Panda
General December 31st, 2008
I just finished watching Kung Fu Panda. Good story, great graphics and effects. I’m impressed. Here are some other non-spoiler thoughts on the movie.
Jack Black cracks me up.
This will make an excellent video game.
You train a kung fu panda the same way you train a dog.
Do not watch without a supply of either noodles or dumplings handy. It should say that on the netflix envelope. Seriously. I see eastern cuisine in my future.
A few of the fight scenes (especially in the temple with the pillars) gave me Matrix/foyer scene flashbacks. Without, you know, all the bullets. Both movies are amazingly choreographed.
Swearengen (Ian McShane) is the voice of the antagonist (”Tai Lung”). Great stuff. And now I want whisky.
This will make an excellent video game.

Well it’s not one of the best cartoon CGI films in the last few years.
Actually, by true CGI merit and action choreography, I think it’s pretty strong. It really looked good. What movies did you like more?
