Kung Fu panda is one of the bests sequels ever, continuing totally efficient with the original film, but it's more violent and not-enough funny as the first one. But fans will easily be pleased with this new Kung Fu Panda.

Sheer entertainment, energetic action sequences, an awesome villain, great voice acting, cool storyline, creativity and lavish animation is what makes Kung Fu Panda 2 a very good successor to the also great Kung Fu Panda.

However Kung Fu Panda 2 is not as good as Kung Fu Panda, it lacked the mysterious/magical feel the original had, and i remember the first one being much more hilarious. That doesnt mean Kung Fu Panda 2 doesnt have its funny moments.
Also the ending is quite bad, just like in Kung Fu Panda 3

Kung Fu Panda 2 is the least good movie out of the trilogy, but nonetheless pretty entertaining… Expand

So efficent as previous, with new characters including a fearsome foe. The plot of the unknown past of the hero works as well as the fight scenes and the climatic sequence. What expectations shall we have for the third act?

The new villain,Kung fu Panda 2 manages to improve and excite even more so than its predecessor. The animation is even better and more action-packed, and the landscapes shine even more as our heroes venture out beyond the Valley of Peace.

The new villain, Shen is intimidating while also being a riot. His story and motives are also believable, making him superior to the previous movie's villain, Tai Lung. Po also has some character development himself as he tries to decide whether finding out his past or completing his mission is more important. In the end, the big fat panda we know and love makes the right decision and ends with the perfect setup for the third movie.

All the action is still here, the jokes hit hard, the performances from Jack Black, Jackie Chan, and the rest of the cast are as great as they've ever been, and it manages to keep an insanely large amount of quality despite being a sequel. It's rare to see sequels surpass the original, and Kung Fu Panda 2 does so with flying colors. So much that I wish there was a way I could rate it an 11/10.… Expand

It's better than the first movie in every possible way. It doesn't have as many jokes but it's more deep, the villain is very good and it's captivating to see Po uncover his past.

If the first flime had already delivered some fun material, this sequel was able to develop very dramatic elements of Po's story, with the great (and underrated) villain Lord Shen, brilliantly voiced by the sensational Gary Oldman.

It improves on the first kung fu panda in every aspect. The comedy is good, but the story is definitely the movies best asset. it touches on Po's past in great detail. This in turn allows an empathetic connection to be made with the viewer. The antagonist, Shen does not fall short of the standard set by Ian McShane as Tai lung in the first film. He is relentless in wiping out Po's culture and everything the pandas stand for. The climax to the movie rounds off the masterpiece that it is. In conclusion I strongly disagree with the rating given to the second instalment of the kung fu panda trilogy, and highly recommend this movie to people of all ages as there is a much deeper meaning to the story. One of hardship, loss, grief and forgiveness that can be applied to everyday life as inspiration. Yeet… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Personalmente, Kung Fu Panda 2 me ha gustado menos en comparación a su predecesora, pero eso no quiere decir que sea mala. Sabe hacer algunas cosas mejor: Nos presenta un mejor villano el cual es Shen. Shen como villano en lo personal esta muchísimo mejor desarrollado que Tai Long, el villano de la entrega anterior. Su historia de fondo es interesante pero sus ambiciones son algo genéricas. Simplemente es un emperador con poder que tiene ansias de mas. No me gusto tampoco la poca participación que tienen personajes como Shifu que solo aparecen en 2 escenas, cuando en la anterior película era uno de los protagonistas. La primer película de Kung Fu Panda dentro de todo equilibraba mejor el humor con la seriedad. Las partes serias si bien están muchísimo mejor elaboradas que la primera entrega, son menos y hay demasiadas escenas de humor tonto, que pueden llegar a irritar en ciertas ocasiones, y te hacen desear. Considerando que también Kung Fu Panda como franquicia abarca la antigua China, siento que al igual que la primera película, tendrían que haberle dado mas importancia a las leyendas y relatos antiguos que se suelen contar en este tipo de historias. También descubrí un fallo argumental grave, en una escena de la película muestran que la madre de Po deja a su hijo en una canasta. Sin embargo, como diablos llego esa canasta luego a la tienda del ganso? No estaba cerca de la orilla del rio e incluso si lo estuviera no podría llegar a la tienda del ganso de ningún modo. Y si alguien mas la movió, por que no hablar con él? Quitando todo lo malo, es una gran película, pero que no la llego a considerar un clásico como la primera por todo el potencial desperdiciado. Id a verla, que de seguro os entretiene, eso no lo negare ;)… Expand

The animation has its charm again, the soundtrack is masterful, as it always is with Kung Fu Panda, and the story is excellent again. The first part had an excellent negative, but here DreamWorks overcame and created perhaps the best negative of their animated films. Overall, this is an excellent sequel that I recommend.… Expand

It rides a lot on the 1st movie at the early parts of the movie, similar to how avengers has to make references to the individual shows every 10 minutes. The plot touches on deeper lore and I think it was overall a decent movie. The pacing was really weird like how quick it feels like we went from peacock to capturing that town to being beat. Overall, not as good as 1st but sufficient.… Expand

EveryMy favourite animation of all time, this movie payoffs the first and itself by not only introducing one of the best soundtracks in an animation of all time, but also hitting you right in the heart with its jokes, passion, and message.

Every character, every scene, and every piece of this film surpasses its predecessor and any animation even recent animation does not compare(Might edit this one day, But not any time soon). This is in a league of its own right up there with Shrek 2, and Megamind.

This is the only animation to actually make me cry, forget about inside out or even Coco.

Kung Fu Panda 2 is probably overlooked by a lot of people, but when you see the bigger picture of it all, the music, the scenes, the characters, and the grand scope of the film it really unlocks something in you, maybe that's what inner peace feels like.

I hope Dreamworks gets to these Highs once more to blow us away with beautiful music and animation.… Expand
