Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Kung Fu Panda (2008)

Underachieving, overweight panda Po (Jack Black) idolizes the "Furious Five" -- elite martial artists who train at the town's mountain temple. When a Dragon Warrior is to be selected, Po scrambles to attend the ceremony and winds up stumbling into the appointment himself.

Can such an unexpected choice be the right choice? Can Po possibly live up to the legend of the Dragon Warrior and fight when necessary? Um...duh.

Cute but loaded with clichés -- just felt pretty obvious and tired. Looked great, though.
