Kung Fu Panda

Pretty easy; this is basically exactly the movie you're expecting it to be.
It's a Dreamworks animation, which means it's 80% as good as the Pixar
equivalent. Which is no mean feat, when you think about it. It's Jack Black
being Po, the enthusiastic but inept panda who is selected to be trained as the
Dragon Warrior to take on the evil Shi-Fu, bad ass kung-fu Snow Leopard.

It's all very cute and simplistic, beautifully done, funny, everything you'd
expect. It's a kids movie that an adult can enjoy as well. The art is
wonderful, the martial arts scenes pretty exciting.

Beyond that, there's not a lot a lot to say. It's a film about a Kung Fu Panda.
