>Kung Fu Panda 2 DVD review and competition

>

Kung Fu Panda is a much loved film in our house, so when I heard that Kung Fu Panda 2 was being released I knew my kids would love it!

Po (Jack Black)is back as the main character, and is living his dream as a Dragon Warrior. Po’s job is protecting the Valley of Peace alongside his friends and fellow kung fu masters, the Furious Five. The Furious Five is an all star cast with the voices including Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman, Gary Oldman, Jackie Chan, Seth Rogen, Lucy Liu, David Cross, Michelle Yeoh, Danny McBride and Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Po’s new life of awesomeness is threatened by the emergence of a formidable villain who plans to use a secret, unstoppable weapon to conquer China and destroy kung fu. Po must look to his past and uncover the secrets of his mysterious origins; only then will he be able to unlock the strength he needs to succeed.
Both the DVD and the Blu-Ray Triple Play is filled to the brim with extras which includes interviews with the returning cast and new faces who have joined the journey, a fun tutorial that teaches 50 Kung Fu Panda-inspired words in Chinese, deleted scenes and filmmakers’ commentary. In addition, the Blu-ray Triple Play pack includes a digital copy of the film to enjoy on the go, hilarious pop-up trivia, and a visit to the Animators’ Corner featuring interviews with creators, animators, cast and crew, storyboards, commentary and more.
Here is Jack Black and Angelina Jolie talk about the film:

Jack Black acts out Po’s moves:

My kids adore Kung Fu Panda 2, and even my husband who hasn’t seen the first film watched it and wasn’t lost, so you don’t have to be a Kung Fu Panda fan to watch it. It is rip roaring funny, especially when Po falls down the stairs!

Kung Fu Panda 2 is available now on DVD and Blu-Ray Triple Play.
