“I know belly fu!”
I’m fond of cute, furry, and chubby things. A good example of my fondness is a panda. Imagine my joy when I learned that Dreamworks is doing Kung Fu Panda. The poster alone made me excited to catch it in the theatre.
Jack Black is awesome as Po the panda. Right after the Dreamworks logo was shown and Po was narrating the legend of the dragon warrior, I knew that it was going to be a wonderful movie. It turned out I was right.
As usual, it had almost all the ingredients I’m looking for in a movie; action, comedy, and a moral lesson or two. Dreamworks has a way of reaching out to a wide variety of people’s taste. I admire them for pleasing people from all walks of life.
Kung Fu Panda is up there with Shrek, and other Dreamworks animation because they know how to engage their audience. They know what the audience wants and what the audience needs. I mean, Kung Fu Panda is not just about the good animation and the hilarious scenes, but it also imparts certain values like believing in oneself and not to judge others based on their physical appearance.
If Dreamworks continues doing these kinds of film, I’ll keep watching.
