In addition to be one of Hollywood's leading animation studios, as well as a famous Hollywood star has often used to fill out the sound of his films, DreamWorks Animation is also known as the studio that is not shy tried to create a franchise. Not surprising when DreamWorks like to make sequels or spin-offs, especially of films successful in the market, call it Shrek, Madagascar and How to Train Your Dragon. Sometimes the results are encouraging continuation of the franchise in terms of box office, but often the results are less than satisfactory in terms of story.Kung Fu Panda is included in franchise-owned DreamWorks 'lucky', because the first sequel, Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011) still continue the success of the film Kung Fu Panda (2008). Welcome to both the film include positive, both from the box office achievement is equally high, and the quality of its content. One of them is evidenced by the fact that both were nominated for Best Animated Feature Film at the Oscars. Of course, since this DreamWorks, that success should be continued with a sequel again.However, it may be a bit premature to assume Kung Fu Panda 3 is just an attempt to plunder the pockets of consumers-especially those parents who are willing to the wishes of his children to watch this movie in the theaters and buy his merchandise. When observed, the creators of this film managed to exploit the potential of the story and character, which is quite feasible to continue until the third film. The potential of the most important of course is about the identity of Po, a panda eating champion who later also kung fu.
When recalled, the element of the search for identity is so red thread theme since the first Kung Fu Panda, but the theme was explored step by step. Kung Fu Panda movie first to introduce ancient Chinese martial world inhabited by civilized animals such as humans. The plot is the proof that Po (voiced Jack Black) is the Dragon Warrior, which is forecast to save China from the evil forces, even when he was just a child who has no merchant mi martial arts skills at all.In the film, the fact that Po the panda's father a goose (Mr. Ping, dubbed James Hong) seemed to be hidden joke, let alone described Po felt that it was only normal thing. In the end, the point does not cause too great question, because the attention is more focused on what will become of Po in the future. 'Oddity' past identity Po just started pared Kung Fu Panda 2, and it was revealed that the true Po was adopted, and the possibility that he is the only panda left.Kung Fu Panda 3 can be regarded as the culmination of two trips Po: dig past identity, and meets his future self. Once Po told by the master, Shifu (Dustin Hoffman) to begin teaching kung fu in universities as steps to increase their knowledge, something which is run Po with overwhelmed because he still does not grow out of childish. Meanwhile, also the arrival of Li Po (Bryan Cranston), a panda who claimed to be his biological father, and was about to take her back to the village panda whose existence was kept secret.At the same time, the martial world is threatened by the arrival of Kai (J.K. Simmons), a kind of warrior yak-cow mountain from the spirit world who want to take supernatural warriors, especially the Dragon Warrior. Kai presence drives the plot of this film, so that the elements of the fight that characterizes the film martial arts and Kung Fu Panda franchise well maintained, also increases the entertainment value.
However, Kai function here no more than that, overshadowed by the search for identity Po and his discovery of the life of fellow pandas. Less involvement of the figure of the enemy in the theme of the story became one of the weaknesses of Kung Fu Panda 3. In fact, Kai may tersakti enemy that never appeared in the Kung Fu Panda franchiseMoreover, Kung Fu Panda 3 is the overall look of the lightest of the three films that already exist. It can be seen from the fast-paced narrative style, grammar fun and creative games, and various kinds of jokes that appeared in almost all areas that unfortunately not everything tasted fresh as possible no longer surprising in the third film. On the one hand, it succeeded in making this film can be enjoyed with ease without having crammed with heavy thoughts.On the other hand, the film contains the story of Po who must prove he deserves to be called the Dragon Warrior, protecting the birthplace of a new one she knew, also the choice between the biological father or adoptive father who raised him. These themes are potentially make Kung Fu Panda 3 is more emotional than, for example, Kung Fu Panda first to dwell on beliefs about what can and can not be done by someone. Only, bearing most of the film was very cheerful rather cover that potential, so the film is not semeyentuh expected.Apart from that, Kung Fu Panda remains a film worth juxtaposed with the previous two films, especially from the entertainment value that is still capable. Display beautiful images and animations are supported by sound and slick music makes this film so good to watch all ages. Code length is still lovable, while the new code fast enough to familiar. There are still inspiring the values that can be taken as its predecessor, making films that obviously this comedy not just casually without meaning. After all, what is more adorable than seeing dozens of pandas fat various sizes acting silly antics at once?
