Believe.....believe in yourself, believe in what you do. This is the message the movie Kung fu Panda has for you. The message is not drummed into your head, but subtly brought to your attention. Kung fu Panda is a simple movie with a simple plot, still it entertains you. I liked the movie so much that I watched it twice, back to back. Even now, while I am writing this review of Kung fu Panda, the movie is playing in another browser. Kung fu Panda tells the story of a clumsy panda Po, who works in his father's noodle restaurant and dreams of becoming a kung fu fighter. He is picked by wise Oogway to be the next dragon warrior to fight evil Tai-long. But the furious five and their master Shifu are dismayed to see fat bellied panda being crowned the savior. Shifu tries everything in his power to frighten him off the premises of the kung fu school, but ultimately he has to relent. Shifu devises innovative ways to teach kung fu to Po and he defeats the dreaded Tai-long in the end.
Jack black has done a good job as the voice of Po, the kung fu panda. Dustin Hoffman is also impressive as Shifu. Angelina Jolie is not suited as the voice of tigress. She sounds out of character here. I was surprised to see Jacki Chan's name in the cast of characters because I didn't hear his voice in the whole movie. After some digging around, I found that he has lent his voice for monkey. That's a total wastage of his huge talent. But overall, Kung fu panda is a good enjoyable movie.
