To sold out 2 hours earlier than its screening
But to wait for a long time to get into the cinema hall
Due to “effective management” of GSC
It takes more than 23 minutes to start
After viewing the trailer of
The Green Lantern (Second Trailer), Transformer III and X-Men First Class
Kaboom is the sequel to Kung Fu Panda a few years before
By Dreamwork (DW)
Same as Rio
It is rather a family movie
Whereby parents spend a little bit popcorn time with their children
That as you can see
Up to 40% of children make up the total audiences
Regarding this episode of KFP II
I would rather give a moderate/ average review
The storyline is basically finding the truth of Po’s childhood
Most of the plot is EXPECTED
Plus, the style of the story is just like
The Hokkien Drama
Talking about finding parents
To take revenge and so on
Another thing
DW should name it as Taiji Panda
Since the technique used to fight against the antagonist is
The Inner Peace of Taiji
Sense of humor
Could be found in the movie
But most of them are familiar jokes
However
The most fascinating part should be the childhood look of Po
Whereby he is so cute
Whereby his sound is so cute
But Po now is rather fat and not cute (LOL...)
The relationship between the father (Goose) and Po
Is another moving part
That tells audiences
To appreciate each others
An addition should be the peacock that is the antagonist throughout the whole movie
And the screenplay of using a fortune teller
Which make the whole story totally familiar to the Chinese (Movie also takes place in China)
And so, 95% of the audiences are Chinese
The peacock, Shen, although being shadowed by the plot (Of Po finding the truth of his childhood)
It makes the perfect antagonist
That misuses the fireworks created/ invented by his parents
With his arrogant, his coward, his greedy
Finally
Jack Black makes Po alive
Only him that suits the character well
The way of talking, telling jokes, smiling, walking, opening mouth etc.
Just the same of Jack Black
He is the perfect Po
The predicted plot should be the killing of its box office (It’s expected that Shen that leads the Fox Army to kill Po’s parents)
KFP II’s box office is screwed by Hangover II in US during this Memorial Weekend
It is totally idiot for DW to put it the same day as Warner’s Hangover II to premiere
With lack of advertising and common plot, KFP II is unexpectedly, grosses lower for its opening weekend
Comparing with Rio
I would rather choose Rio
A more colorful and cheering cartoon
KFP II gets more positive ratings
As most of the critics prefer movie maker to assimilate Eastern’s Culture
But, there is way good for Rio
As it also assimilates the culture of Brazil
Kung Fu Panda II: The Kaboom of Doom
Though is nothing special in its plot
I still love the part that
Po is appreciating his father (Goose) for raising him up
Note: KFP II ends at the part showing Po’s real father is not dead, possible that DW will be making another sequel.
