Kung Fu Panda (2008,  PG)
Kung Fu Panda 3.0 Stars
Angelina Jolie, Seth Rogen and Jack Black are in this film together, and perhaps someone would have imagined something more of their specialty areas, namely: sex, drugs and rock n roll rather than the animated PG offering of this flick.

Black plays Po, a clumsy panda noodle chef who fantasises about being a Kung Fu fighter with the furious Five, Tigress (Jolie), Viper (Lui), Mantis (rogen), Crane (Cross) and Monkey (Chan).

When fate shines a light on Po and he is named the Dragon Warrior--the only one who can defeat the dreaded Tai Ling (Ian McShane)--he must decide whether it really is his destiny or a perilous suicide mission.

As far as the storyline of this movie, I guess you get pretty much what you'd expect from the storyline--a morality tale about inner-strength and the uniqueness of you. The film combines the best aspects of animation, like the ability to depict scenes that would be unfilmable in live action, with a big cinematic feel of an epic martial arts movie.

The script is also decent. On one level it's laconic, like many kung fu films, with the exception of Black's comedic interludes. Certainly there's anecdotal twist and turns in this film, and I'm still grinning.
