$ X7 i1 |0 S0 Y% ?) cAS summer movies get bigger and bigger, they often make the audiencefeel smaller and smaller. DreamWorks’ latest cartoon movie Kung Fu Panda is a simple and lighthearted exception. But in the movie, this panda isn't just cuddly; it's an overweight dreamer. Kung Fu Panda begins with a stylish, brilliantly colored dream. In the dream,

5 g: G: }$ w8 N! {) P  apanda Po imagines he's part of the Furious Five, a group of elite kungfu fighters: a tiger, a mantis, a bird, a snake and a monkey.
1 ]( D; J1 x' y/ N9 ?% S; o! @% ^
When Po wakes up, though, he's far from their ranks and can't even conquera flight of stairs. He's the son of a noodle shop owner, a goose. But nobody knows how a bird fathered a panda."I don't dream about noodles, Dad,” Po says. "I love kungfu."  K: K6 Q( ?& U& P4 \. o

" E8 {1 D9 V9 r$ C0 S1 g' Q0 ]: SThe Furious Five are led by the Master Shifu whose own guru, the turtle, Oogway, fears their nemesis Tai Lung will return and destroy their valley. All Oogway wants is peace in the valley.# s# H6 V- @* G6 \

; v: H1 G' }! J3 U+ {; E7 |
To defendthem, Oogway must find the Dragon Warrior 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.The plot is standard martialarts stuff, but at every turn, the serious gravity of the kungfu archetype is contrasted by the extreme awkwardness of Po. Take, for example, this lesson bestowed on Po by Shifu: "Panda, we do not wash our pits in the Sea of Forgotten Tears."' V8 W. r0 [% S  P& m, l' K

/ H" S/ ^7 T: AHe's brave, but it's not Po's grit that's endearing; it's his casual good-naturedness. The Furious Five resent his undeserved opportunity, but when they crush him in training, Po, ever the fan, collects the rubble as a souvenir.+ P: G' G  W' t7 l4 \
Though most around him have no sense of humor, Po disarms them with his lack of intensity. The fool in over his head is far from a new story, but Kung Fu Panda finds life in the old jokes.* [9 g0 k6 B% d5 A

# e4 j) b: S" SThe elaboratefight sequences (a memorable one is with chopsticks) are as inventive as anything in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. But the comedy of Kung Fu Panda lies in the deadpan looks and perfect pauses. 1 K) I" w' Z5 I' R/ y

KUNG Fu Panda is apparently not your typical Shrek or Toy Story copy but a real martial arts film.
! Z8 l  ~5 b' x: @"Our way meant having animal characters as living embodiments of the original animal fighting styles of kungfu," said co-director John Stevenson. "We didn't want the kungfu in our film just to look like human beings wearing animal suits doing fighting."

Tigress strikes directly, using speed, agility and power to shatter opponents' defenses. Tigress stays close to the ground; she is elegant, fighting honorably and never using her claws.1 e* g9 `  `" m* B

Monkey confuses his enemy, striking at will from any position with speed, deception, skill and passion.

; v3 v9 M9 I& CViper5 R  M8 Q( ]& ]5 b0 W
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 – then, by wrapping her body around her opponent's limbs, she uses their energy to strike back with deadly efficiency.& ?.

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.2 y4 m1 ^6 z8 d7 n9 {
