Here’s the gist: Take Rick O’Connell - the main character from the Mummy movies - and plop him in as the main character, add a silly factor a notch above the (original 2) Mummy movies, combine some “Hey, even if I accept your fantasy physics, I’m pretty sure there’s something you forgot,” and add a pinch or two of wonderment reminiscent of the original Jurassic Park movie.
I’m sure the others have plenty to say about this movie, so I’ll keep it short.
I really liked Batman Begins. This one blew it out of the water! I came out of the movie theater giddy; this movie is easily among my top 5 favorites. It doesn’t have what you’d call a “twist” ending, but when its over, you want to see it again real soon so you can pick up all the small details.
Go see it! Chances are you’ll want to see it more than once on the big screen.
Edit: I know this isn’t exactly a review, but I don’t know who was supposed to actually review the movie and I didn’t want to step on anybody’s toes. If and only if the reviewer(s) don’t share my enthusiasm for this movie will I go into more detail about why this movie is among my favorites. I hope that clarifies my vagueness.
Grade: A
Quick Review:
Even if you’re not a fan of kung fu movies, you’ll probably still enjoy Kung Fu Panda! Its definitely geared towards a younger audience, but more than anything, this movie was a lot of fun!
