A: A Panda who dreams of becoming a Kung Fu master is picked to defeat his village's most powerful and dangerous enemy, despite the fact that he has no experience in Martial Arts.
Q: Who’s in the movie?
A: Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Ian McShane, Lucy Liu, Seth Rogen, Jackie Chan, David Cross, Randall Duk Kim, Michael Clarke Duncan
Q: Is this movie worth the price of admission?
A:
Go! One of the best Kung Fu movies I've ever seen. Oh, and also it's really, really cute.Q: Will this movie make me laugh?
A: Yes. But if you can catch a weekend matinee, the laughter of the children laughing will add exponentially to your enjoyment of the jokes.
Q: Will this movie make me cry?
A: Almost.
Q: Will this movie be up for any awards?
A: A likely winner in the Best Animated Picture category. Which sometimes doesn't seem like that great of an accomplishment, considering they can rarely ever find more than three movies a year to nominate for that meagerly category.
Q: How is the Acting?
A: Much like the character he plays, Jack Black is a master. He continually rises above your expectations, conquering all lines of dialogue that are placed before him with awesomeness and attractiveness.
Q: How is the Directing?
A: The inventiveness of the director's vision is sold in the first few frames, as the movie opens on Panda's Kung Fu fantasy, which cleverly parodies the Japanime animation style. And the attention to detail just expands from there.
Q: How is the story/script?
A: It starts out seeming like it's going to be the same old movie about a boy who wants to be a dancer, while his father wants him to follow in his footsteps working a passionless job at the coal mines. Only instead of dancing, this boy wants to do Kung Fu, and instead of coal mines, this father wants him to become a Top Ramen-style noodle chef... But happily, the movie quickly takes a turn into more original and charming territory.
Q: Is there anything else worth mentioning about the movie?
A: The merchandise is going to kick as much butt as the Dragon Slayer.

Jack Black is a true master indeed, just like his character, Poe. :)
