Dreamworks Animation pulled it off with Kung Fu Panda. All these while their movies (with some exceptions such as Shrek) had been really childish and corny (to me). However, in Kung Fu Panda, they explore deeper in the darker side with amazing martial arts. Even with its slightly cliched storyline, the action and humour in the movie can keep glued to your seat.
Apart from the storyline, they have the perfect team of voice actors. Who can not like a show with Jack Black and Jackie Chan in it? They have made the average script as interesting as possible.
Animation-wise, Dreamworks Animation have always been improving. This time, they included swift fighting moves which can keep your eyes glued onto the screen. All in all, they have did a wonderful job with Kung Fu Panda and majority of the reviews have given it good criticism.
