Kung-Fu Panda (2008)
Starring: Jack Black (voice), Dustin Hoffman (voice)
Director: Mark Osbourne, John Stevenson
Country: USA
Genre: Animation, Comedy, Action
In recent years my affinity for family films has grown. I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve finally shed the last traces of my adolescent rebellion or if the films have consistently progressed in quality. Whatever the case, each year we’ve been given more animated films that really excel beyond their realm of children’s entertainment and into the world of great cinematic storytelling. If you’re as skeptical as I was about the quality of this film, I assure you: it’s as funny as it is touching, and it’s as heartwarming as it is hilarious. It’s a new twist on an old tale, a fish out of water, an underdog over coming the odds, a rags to riches story… but it’s voiced perfectly by Jack Black and has a very well written script that at its best moments creates a sense of inspiration. Don’t think what I thought originally… that it was just Madagascar in a dojo.
