From a young age, Po, a clumsy and clumsy panda, dreamed of competing with the greatest masters of kung fu and playing martial arts with his ultimate heroes, the Five Cyclones. But for now, he has to help his adoptive father prepare porridge for the customers of his restaurant.
While Tai Lung, the valley’s most dangerous enemy, escapes from the prison in which he has been imprisoned, Masters Ogwei and Shifu organize a grand tournament to determine which resident will become the future Dragon Warrior, the protector of the village. Against all odds, when the day comes, Ogogi’s finger points in Po’s direction.

A new instant cult saga
For more than 25 years, the famous Dreamworks studios, pioneers of computer-generated image animation, such as Pixar, have created some of the most popular franchises in their field. We can obviously cite the indescribable Shrek, the hilarious Madagascar, and the majestic dragons (which will soon have the rights to a live-action remake).
But in 2008, the artists of the firm au clair de lune put all their talent, all their humor and all their narrative genius into the service of a new character. An atypical and immediately endearing hero who will be remembered thanks to the amazingly effective concept of his film: a panda who dreams of practicing kung fu.
global success
Undoubtedly, due to the strength of its promise, but also the virtuosity of its animation (we all remember Tai Lung’s spectacular escape at the beginning of the film), the strength of its story and the precision of numerous Kung. Fu Panda grossed over $600 million worldwide and instantly established itself as a new classic.
As well as The Green Ogre and The Toothless Dragon, Poe will be entitled to three more adventures on the big screen, which I also recommend you check out if you enjoyed the first one. On the other hand, if you have never seen the first opus of this incredible saga, have a Netflix subscription and are looking to spend an unforgettable evening with your family, don’t hesitate a second!
