What's a panda to do when his dreams of kung-fu awesomeness awake to the cold reality of noodle-making? Clumsy, overweight Po (Jack Black) dreams of becoming a kung fu master like China's revered "furious five," but instead seems destined to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather in the restaurant business. When great leader Oogway has a vision that the imprisoned kung fu warrior Tai Lung (Ian McShane) will soon escape, he declares it time to choose China's dragon warrior--one kung fu master deemed worthy of possessing the dragon's scroll and its secret to limitless power. Po and all the townspeople rush to the Jade Palace atop the highest mountain to witness the contest between Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogan), Crane (David Cross) and Viper (Lucy Liu), but Po is locked outside the palace. After a miracle of sorts, Po lands inside the palace gates, where he is chosen as the dragon warrior and placed under the tutelage of the decidedly non-plussed master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman). An unconventional student to say the least, hilarity reigns as Shifu tries desperately to make Po into some semblance of a kung fu warrior. Can Po possibly fulfill his destiny as dragon warrior, or was Oogway's final decision a critical mistake? A film rich with hilarious moments, superior animation, and an important message about believing in oneself and the power that comes from within, Kung Fu Panda is great entertainment that will have the whole family laughing and begging for more. (Ages 3 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

 GREAT MOVIE! THE FURIOUS FIVE WAS ALSO A TREAT! November 23, 2008
Great movie! Great GCI! The lesson that can be learned from this movie is also heart warming. Just goes to show that no matter how you look, if you believe in yourself, things are possible. The Furious Five are also a great treat for this 2-pack movie. Gives you an inside look of their character. Highly recommended!
Keep the Panda, Lose the Five November 16, 2008

I've got no issues with the feature film; it was just as good when I saw it in the theatres twice. But the Furious Five add-on is just a waste of time and money. It is about 30 minutes of backstory on the Furious Five as it explains how they came to study under Master Shifu. There are also some live-action demonstrations of their various fighting styles and a test to discover which kung fu style you are, but all in all it's just a waste. Get the movie only, save your money.

Love the movie but they didn't offer the double disc of it at the time I ordered it with the disc of the Furious Five.I feel cheated
Two Thumbs Up for Panda, Not So Much For Furious Five November 10, 2008

The Furious Five movie is only 22 minutes long, so it's not really worth it to pay the extra $7. Stick with the single disc version and you'll be getting a lot more for your money.
FAST PACED FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY! BLACK IS PERFECT AS PO! November 8, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have grown to love CGI when it is used in animated films. Kung Fu Panda is no exception. Jack Black seems to have found a perfect medium for his zany energy and style....he is perfectly cast as Po the Panda. The animation is superb in this martial arts based animated tale and the Asian setting is serene and beautiful. Kids and adults will enjoy this funny hip animated feature. The DVD has a great transfer and a fair amount of extras, including a direct to video sequel in this two pack DVD set.
