The Worst Film Ever
Such a frustrating disappointment
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
As a fan of funny animations I should say Kung Fu Panda series is one of the best series because it shows that if you want to be a hero, you can if you want to do anything, you can and just you have to try over and over. Moreover it's a really fun and you can have a great time when you watch it especially when you watch it with your family.
It is really hard to make good sequels after a famous first movie. Because there is less room for character development, villain seems predictable, and fun factor is usually less. I did not enjoy Kung Fu Panda 2 a lot and I feared that the movie will face a similar fate. But I have to inform that the movie is a good one, if not the best.I felt the story development was hurried, and the movie ended too quickly. I can also feel that prime target of this movie was kids who will not think a lot about some improbable emotional aspects which can be seen in the movie. You cannot take this movie too seriously.There were funny dialogues, also there were nice quotations like "Sometimes we do wrong things for right reasons". There were many instances in the movie when you would laugh. It is a nice film. Just do not think too deeply about the plot of the movie, as many things might not make too much sense to a mature mind. Hopefully, we will be exploring the Kung Fu Panda's world more in coming future.
Kung Fu Panda 3 is about what you would expect. A roller coaster ride of gags, goof ups and outrageous martial art outbursts.Po is himself, clumsy, naïve, martial arts master and funny. As usual he is accompanied by his friends from the previous movies including the somewhat reluctant Shifu. The wise turtle Oogway from the first Kung Fu Panda is back as well, kind of.Naturally there is a big bad villain, General Kai, who it turns out have some past relations to Oogway. General Kai is pretty good as a villain with a suitable maniacal expression on his face. Then of course, a bull in itself is already projecting bad temper and violence so it is a good start.The main story is of course about defeating General Kai but Po's reunification with his (real) father and the rest of the, funny and very clumsy, inhabitants in the Panda village is taking up a large part of the movie.In general the story is quite nice with some nice twists.It should come as no surprise that Po, as usual, saves the day in a cataclysmic showdown with General Kai. There are some great animation effects in the final battle.At the end of the day this is a quite recommendable family movie.
I'm a lover of the Kung Fu Panda movies since i was 8 years old. The first one is a really great movie. In that moment, i couldn't see the movie in theaters because my parents were busy in that moment, so i saw on DVD. The second one I achieved see in the theater in 3D with my family and it was amazing. The best of the franchise. And when i heard about the third one and saw the trailers, i was really excited because they past 5 years after the last one. I also saw with my family in 3D, and i really enjoy it. First let's talk about the animation, that is probably the best one in the franchise. All the colors, the characters designs, the scenarios,the action scenes, everything is fantastic in the animation. The humor is effective and it got some hilarious moments. The voice cast is really well done with talent voices of Jack Black, Bryan Cranston, James Hong, J.K Simmons, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie and others makes the movie a really watchable time. The story is interesting and great to see a continuation of the second one in stated to reap it the same movie. The score of Hans Zimmer is beautiful as always and makes the action scenes and the emotional moments effective and fun. And the last good thing about the movie are the characters, they are really likable and they still being the same characters as we know it. My favorite character of the franchise is probably is Mr. Ping. Unfortunately, the movie has some defects. The biggest problem of the movie is that even is that funny, there are jokes that don't make me laugh like the testicle joke or when the same jokes of the movie are repeated, and sometimes make me think why they try to be the most funny movie of all like Shrek the Third did. Not even that the tone of the movie although it is not bad,it sometimes want to be Kung Fu Panda 1 for some of the jokes you have. And the last problem with the movie is its villain. Kai is not a very powerful or frighting villain like Lord Shen or Tai Long. It has some funny moments, the concept of the villain is really great, the design is fantastic and J.K. Simmons dose a great job, but his is the most weakest villain of the franchise. So yeah, this movie has been throwing by people calling the best of Kung Fu Panda series, the worst of the series or the weakest of the series. And yeah, I would lie if I said that this is the weakest one. But for the other hand, is better than Shrek the Third respect in the writing and humor. It's a shame that this couldn't have the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature because it could be great if Kung Fu Panda were the first trilogy in be nominated in that category. But, i think that the Kung Fu Panda franchise is the best franchise that Dreamworks give us. Kung Fu Panda 3 even is not the best one in the franchise is a really good sequel which knows that who to end and not be another shity franchise like Ice Age or The Land before Time. 8.9/10
