Ingredients:
- 1 Jackie Chan Kung Fu movie
- dollop of extra humor
- clean cut animation
Add the humor to the movie, layer on the animation to make sure that it appears an animated flick, add the secret ingredient - Angelina Jolie, albeit voice only. Repackage and release with cute merchandise and you get Kung Fu Panda.
I was a bit disappointed to be honest after getting to watch the movie. Granted the comedy was good, but the makers should have realized that serving an audience a Jackie Chan movie would reduce the innovation factor.
Incompetent hero gets put in a position where he has to save the world/village/school..etc. No one gives him a chance until some words of wisdom or some experience knocks the desire into him. Then there is the mandatory training and the eventual face off in which the hapless hero is thrown into, his colleagues/teachers/random passer-bys beaten into submission by the unbeatable villian. The hero nearly meets his end but pulls himself together to deliver the knockout blow.
