Kung Fu Panda 2

Sunday the family went out to the 11am showing of Kung Fu Panda 2.  First off, how in the hell is 7 for adults and 6.50 for kids a deal?  Shouldn't the 11am matinee be cheaper?

The movie had way to many previews but that was ok.  The kids did good.  We snuck some goodies into the theater and the kids loved those.

The movie started off good, lots of action and set up the plot of the movie.  We got to see more action from Po and the Furious 5.  Eventually we got to see the problem Po would ask and have to figure out, where he came from.  The villain, a peacock who found the secret of gun powder, was starting to take on the rest of China.  Not to go into anything that would spoil the plot but the movie and the final battle could have ended 10 or so minutes earlier.  The end also sets up Kung Fu Panda 3.  The plot does well to expand on the characters and Po and give them some depth, but it wasn't as good as the first.  Still the kids liked it.

2 out of 5 stars.
