I'll have to see it. And yes, I am with the OP on "Emporer's New Groove." That movie completely surprised me. Especially Patrick Wharburg (sp?) as that Crump bodyguard dude.

When I saw this in the grocery store, I had no idea that this movie existed. I thought it was just a really overdone cereal box.

Yeah!

It was a great movie, better than 'Emperor's New Groove' and just about as funny as 'Kung Pow'.

Took my mother and my 3 kids to see it on Friday, My mother was emabarassing the shit out of me because she kept on busting out laughing. The accupuncture scene was hilarious.

Excellent movie for young and old, it far exceeded my expectations.

Saw this movie and Zohan over the weekend.

Panda is better, much better than Zohan. Love it when Panda mocked the Master.... "someday...maybe I will learn how to smile again" and the big ears with the noddle bowls :D

it was good, but not great.

the panda learned kung fu in like a couple of days?!

the bad guy kicked the 5 master's ass. but couldnt do squat against the panda once the panda figured out the empty scroll has no special powers?!

WTF?

Are you serious dude? You are seriously taking it that literal and to-the-point?

As for the movie it was "Awesomely Awesome" no question. The whole thing was just a Jack Black vehicle too. He wasn't trying to pretend to be anyone else.

Did anyone else notice that EVERY funny part was exclusively Po's? I don't think a funny line of dialog was written for another character.

I saw that one too, I really did not like it...

1/10 for the zohan

12/10 for kung fu panda.

How could you not like Zohan?

IMO, it's gotta be just about the best Sandler movie yet! The wife and I lomfao!!

I still haven't seen Kung Fu Panda yet (although I plan to) but I have seen Zohan and I don't think it was as bad as you make it out to be. It was definitely a bit sillier than some of his films. I think Waterboy and Billy Madison are still better.

Another vote for great. My wife, kids, and friends all loved it. This is definitely going to be a blu-ray purchase.

YAAAAAAAY!


That's all I need in my life right now! Neighbors' kids all cafeined or sugared up doing karate moves and yelling "skee-douch"!


Thanks Jack Black and Disney!

Yup, great movie. Surprised that Jackie Chan was the monkey and Dustin Hoffman as Shifu.

And Wall-E looks like another hit for Pixar.

As for Emperor's New Groove - "YEA, I'm a llama again!!!!"
