Movies: Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011)

Sunday, June 12, 2011
I haven't been here for a while so I probably forgot how to write a review, forgive my misspells and my incoherent thoughts
 Director: Jennifer Yuh
Cast: Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman, Gary Oldman, Jackie Chan, Seth Rogen, Lucy Liu, David Cross and Danny McBride.
Runtime: 90 min
Plot: Po joins forces with a group of new kung-fu masters to take on an old enemy with a deadly new weapon.

So its that time of the year when blockbusters arrive, and this movie may remember us of one of the best summer years, 2008. 
The first Kung Fu Panda was released on that year and yet it was a funny movie but not like a PIXAR movie of course. This one its a little bit better, in my opinion. It might be a tearjerker for some people but the plot line of Po wanting to know his origins is pretty adorable and with some laughs in between. The second part is no Pixar again but its one of the best achievements of Dreamworks since they only make funny movies but with no bigger story, excepting for How to train your dragon (which I still haven't seen). 
Again I cant talk about the actors work cause I watched them in Spanish but its first part was the only kids movie I've seen on English and not in Spanish, so I was a bit wowed at first with the dubbing. 
The villain is pretty kickass (duh it's Gary Oldman it's obvious it's a great villain), Lord Shen the peacock who wants revenge and it's pack of wolves. 
The animation is great, and the visuals are great aswell, you remember of how I said that the colors in Rio did reminisence of Rio de Janeiro, well this picture has great colors like how Asia is. 
Now talking about the 3D, I've seen a couple of movies in 3D but I think that they really utilized very well the 3D in this movie. It's not Avatar but it really gets close to it and it has more scenes that use 3D. It's worth your money to see it in 3D. 
And talk about the music, the soundtrack is as the visuals, reminiscent of Asian features of those countries and well, it's Hans Zimmer. 
In the end its a pretty good movie with lots of laughs and a pretty good story. Go see Kung Fu Panda 2, it's a family movie that grown ups can see too.
Now I leave you with the Kung Fu Panda 2 trailer.
