Kung Fu Panda 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Kung Fu Panda 2 gets a little darker and slushier than the first, but never loses sight of its objective: fun, fun, fun. The animation is outstanding, and the story has enough surprises to make it new. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 2, 2019 Full Review Kung Fu Panda 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Deborah Ross The Spectator Where, in short, is this film's personality, or even the characters' personalities, for that matter? Aug 31, 2018 Full Review Kung Fu Panda 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Michael O'Sullivan Washington Post [A] satisfying, if less than sensational, sequel to the funny, charming and action-packed animated feature from 2008. Rated: 2/4 Nov 22, 2013 Full Review Kung Fu Panda 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Sebastian Zavala Kahn Me gusta el cine This time, we have a film that deals with some new themes: “your origins do not define your present or future”, “let go of the past”, or “obsession with revenge brings nothing new with it”. Valuable lessons for the kids, of course. Full review in Spanish. Rated: 4/5 Mar 16, 2024 Full Review Kung Fu Panda 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Jana Monji Age of the Geek This sequel doesn't disappoint and explains how Po became the son of a noodle-making gander while Po learns how to find inner peace. While I loved the anthropomorphic animals in the first film, I initially thought the wolves were hyenas. Rated: 3/5 Mar 13, 2024 Full Review Kung Fu Panda 2 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Nick Rogers Midwest Film Journal A cinematic recipe of the hardcore and the heartfelt that, in the hands of the iron chefs DreamWorks Animation has employed to make it, is easy for any age to eat up. Rated: 3.5/4 Nov 20, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
