At 10pm on the opening night, I was kicking myself for not having booked my tickets before I paid for the parking! If only I had used BookEazy, I would be watching Hancock instead of staring wistfully at the doors of ESquare Screen 4! (If you don’t want to end up like me - go ahead and book your tickets right here.)

Luckily for me, I did not have to go home empty-handed… I was one of the last few people who bought tickets for Kung Fu Panda last night. (You can do that here too!) And I say ‘luckily’, not just ‘coz I paid for the parking, but because the movie, as the poster warns you, was pure awesomeness!

Kung Fu Panda is an animated movie about a rolly-polly-jolly panda, Po, that has a secret admiration of the Kung Fu masters of China. (At the time of filming - Tigress, Snake, Crane, Monkey, and Mantis). By a strange accident the wise old turtle - Oogway - chooses our jolly old Po as the “Dragon Master”, and then goes on to convince us, that there are indeed no accidents. No one takes Po seriously, till the ominous villain, a panther called Tai Lung threatens the peace of the valley. Then, they have to! Will Po rise to the occasion? Will Po be able to rid the valley of Tai Lung? Will Po be able to redeem Ooway’s belief? Your guess is as good as mine, but it’s still a whole lot of fun to watch

The animation is excellent. Especially the facial expressions of the Master Shifu. Doing the voices are some well known names like Angelina Jolie (Tigress), Lucy Liu (Snake), Jack Black (Po), Dustin Hoffman (Shifu) and Jackie Chan (Monkey).

Do I need to say anymore to convince you that this movie is worth your money??? So what are you waiting for… go ahead!
