Kung Fu Panda

This DreamWorks Animation offering is surprisingly good, considering that DWA's other features include the desperate and unfunny Shrek films. Jack Black is wonderful as the voice of Po, a portly panda who dreams of being a kung fu warrior and works to overcome struggle and save his village. Cute without being dumb, and funny without being cruel, it's an encouraging film for kids that packs a positive message of determination and empowerment.
