As summer movies get bigger and bigger, they often make the audience feel smaller and smaller. Kung Fu Panda is a simple and lighthearted exception. But in the movie, this panda isn’t just cuddly1; it’s an overweight dreamer.
Kung Fu Panda begins with a brilliantly colored dream. In the dream, panda Po imagines he’s part of the Furious2 Five, a group of elite3 kung fu fighters: a tiger, a mantis4, a bird, a snake and a monkey. When Po wakes up, though, he’s far from their ranks and can’t even conquer a flight of stairs. He’s the son of a noodle shop owner, a goose.“I don’t dream about noodles, Dad,” Po says. “I love kung fu.”
The Furious Five are led by the Master Shifu whose own guru, the turtle, Oogway, fears their nemesis5 Tai Lung will return and destroy their valley. All Oogway wants is peace in the valley.
To defend the valley and the Chinese town, Oogway must find the Dragon Warrior6 to fulfill an ancient prediction. As you might guess, Po is unexpectedly thrust into this role despite any evidence of talent, and the movie is essentially about whether he can live up to this destiny.
Animal heroes
The film is apparently not your typical Shrek or Toy Story copy but a real martial arts film.“Our way meant having animal characters as living embodiments7 of the original animal fighting styles of kung fu,” said director John Stevenson.“We didn’t want the kung fu in our film just to look like human beings wearing animal suits doing fighting.” Here are the moves of these animal kung fu masters and stars who gave them voices:
Po (Jack Black)
Traditional styles of kung fu aren’t a good fit for this giant panda. So, Po must embrace8 his true panda nature and use his physical attributes, including his large belly and rear end.
Jack: I liked the concept of it, you know, this innocent panda who has a dream of being a kung fu master but really is kind of a clumsy9 fool. I thought there was a lot of potential for humour in it. I didn’t really research very much. I just felt like the character was very close to me and I just had to look back to my youth, my innocent days, and I drew just from my own experience.
Tigress (Angelina Jolie)
Tigress strikes directly, using speed and power to destroy opponents’ defenses. Tigress is elegant, fighting honorably and never using her claws.
Jolie: I just look for, whether it be any project, something that I find about a character that I admire, that I like, that I think sends, you know, a good message, or something that’s got some strength to it.
So I loved that in a film like this, that I knew my children would see, that the boys would think it was really cool and love the whole movie but that also my daughters would, of course, have a good role model as a girl.
Monkey (Jackie Chan)
Monkey is the only one of the five to fight with a tool, usually a staff. Monkey confuses his enemy, striking at will10 from any position with speed, skill and passion.
Jackie: I don’t know cartoon. But when I make my action movies, just like cartoon, a lot of action, no violence, a lot of comedy, it’s clean comedy. Because I know there’re so many kids around the world. They like action movies. They like cartoons.
Viper11 Lucy Liu
Viper’s ability to change into any shape makes her nearly impossible to hit. She uses her lightning-fast reflexes to avoid blowers before she hits back.
Q: They film you when you are doing the voiceovers12. And they can take things that are characteristic of you and put them into the character. Did you see anything of Lucy in Viper?
Liu: Not really. I mean, her eyes are gigantic and, obviously she’s got a small mouth. I didn’t feel like I could see a lot of it. But I think that that’s the subtlety13 of when they do film you. There’re gestures that you’re not aware of when you’re talking, when you’re acting, when you’re doing things. You’re doing them and you do forget that the camera’s there. I think that’s what they want. They want what is natural to what you would do normally.
Shifu (Dustin Hoffman)
Shifu moves faster than any challenger. He uses the most force with the least effort. His signature move is the Wuxi finger hold, with which he can overpower an opponent with the touch of a finger.
Dustin: They put us in a room. We each have a microphone. It’s—you know, as you say, you’re isolated. And it’s a strange feeling, because acting is interacting, and here you can’t do that.
We start with nothing and then we slowly just get ideas and we let that begin to influence us. A moustache14, the way we part our hair or the way we dress—kind of the rhythm, the physical rhythm we have, and here that’s already created and now you come in and they would say to you, “We want you to fill that somehow,” and that was, I felt, challenging.
