Kung Fu Panda 4 | No-Spoilers Movie Review

Po is back and better than ever in this 4th installment. Kung Fu Panda 4 does a great job of calling back to the other three movies while also introducing new characters and weaving a new story.

The premise of the movie is that Po learns he must (already) choose a successor to be Dragon Warrior in order for him to continue on his path. Po is of course reluctant to do so and tries his hardest to resist. 

In Kung Fu Panda 4, Po faces off against his, at times, biggest, and at other times, scariest, villain. For those with little ones out there I do want to mention that there are a few times where the villain has glowing eyes, sharp teeth and just looks downright scary. 

Kung Fu Panda 4 Review | Language

Kung Fu Panda 4 is rated PG for "martial arts action/mild violence, scary images and some mild rude humor". Language is not a huge issue with this movie though they do talk about "kicking butt" quite a bit.

Other phrases I picked on were "screwed up" and "screw up".

At one point Po says, "that's a lot of bull", now to be fair when he says this it is because he is actually seeing a lot of bulls but this was clearly meant to be a joke for the grownups in the room.

Another joke that is likely to go over a younger one's head is when Po quips that a literal fish, "drinks like a fish" and asks if said fish should be driving due to the amount of water the fish had drank.

Kung Fu Panda 4 Review | Peril and Violence

It is a movie about Kung Fu, of course there's going to be violence!

It is all cartoon violence though - no blood, no gore and no serious injuries, even as characters are falling from high heights and crashing and thrashing all over a room. Objects are thrown and at times our main characters are in danger but those moments get resolved quickly.

Kung Fu Panda 4 shines during fight scenes with it's Matrix-like split screens and camera work. Be on the look-out for some scene-stealing bunny friends who like to chant "Violence! Violence!" 

Kung Fu Panda 4 Review | My Final Thoughts

With a runtime of just over 90 minutes, Kung Fu Panda 4 is sure to keep kids engaged as they laugh with Po and at Po and root for him as he fights off the bad guys!

Due to some scary moments I say this movie is great for children ages 6 years and older.

Kung Fu Panda 4 is a  fantastic continuation of the beloved franchise. Old friends (and foes) return and new ones are introduced, paving the way for even more Kung Fu Panda! Kids and grownups alike will have fun with this one!

Now, if only we could get a buddy-comedy spin-off featuring Po's dads...
