Get
ready for more Kung Fu action in Kung
Fu Panda: Legend Of Awesomeness
with Po, the Furious Five, and Shifu. Po's not your average panda,
he is the Dragon Warrior, but he rather be having a good meal than
training everyday. Po and the Furious Five faces enemies from the
past Scorpion, Owl, magic shoes and much more, just another day in
the Valley of Peace.
In
this new Scorpion
Sting
collection, Po learns what it means to be a kung fu master. He is
destined to be the Dragon Warrior and trains with Shifu and the
Furious Five, but most of the time he rather take the easy way out,
to the pain of Shifu and the Furious Five, but when the chips are
down or a threat threatens the Valley, Po rises to the challenge to
help or save his family, friends and the home he loves.
This
is a great animation series for kids of all ages, while there is Kung
Fu fighting and unbelievable martial arts it is also about friends,
family and learning about one's self. Through the animation of cute
animals, it is often more comical than epic action adventure.
Picture
and sound are on par with the good quality of the previously reviewed
DVD episodes reviewed elsewhere on this site. Extras include World
of DreamWorks Animation featurette.
