Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the travelling montage, Po and his father endure on their way to the secret panda village, they pass by two large stones that sit on an equally stone-like terrain, and are slanted toward the right of the screen. Shrek and Donkey pass by these same stones on their way to Fiona's castle in Shrek (2001).
- GoofsTigress had no prior knowledge of the location of the panda village, but somehow made it there. When Kai was attacking the temple, Tigress is seen with a scroll about the pandas, which may have helped her find it.
- Crazy creditsInstead of the usual Dreamworks SKG opening with the little boy fishing from a crescent moon in the sky, Po climbs a huge staircase, jumps onto the crescent, and fishes from there.
- Alternate versionsThe FX print begins with the 2013 Universal Pictures logo plastered over the 2010 20th Century Fox logo.

Featured review
The Good Stuff (in order of awesomeness)
1. Superb animation and various art styles used. Hits are emphasized well with excellent sound design and voice acting. Good action.
2. Jokes are (mostly) good, made me laugh out loud multiple times.
3. The plot and pacing is pretty good and character development is adequate.
The Bad Stuff (in order of amplitude)
1. Antagonist is not really memorable with vanilla personality and motivation.
2. Film is obviously meant for a young-ish audience and contains some irritating slapstick and bad jokes.
3. 99% of Panda characters are completely forgettable.
Should you watch it: Probably, yes. I can't stress enough how good some of the visuals are.
