Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight

I read other reviews, and while I do think some points are exaggerated in their quality, I understand where people are coming from. Dreamworks had hyped up Jack Black being on the project a lot, portraying this show as an unofficial Kung Fu Panda 4, when in reality this was just another generic kids show based on a Dreamworks property.

Are all Netflix Dreamworks shows bad? No, their other action shows like Kipo are one of my favorites as a matter of fact, but this show does little to stand out from others in its genre. The characters aren't doing anything for me despite having good backstories. Blade, for example, has a neat backstory regarding her brother, but her personality is the by-the books hardened and stoic type. Po is a lot less endearing and more annoying, but this isn't a complete character assassination (although the way he handles his status really irks me). As always, Mr. Ping is the best character.

The animation is pretty inconsistent. If the show aired 5-10 years earlier, it would be alright, but it didn't. The lighting and set design look really good and are the highlight visually. The new character designs suck and the villains especially look dog****. The actual animation feels off. IDK if it's because it's animated on twos or somsthing, but it felt less impactful.

Overall, a pretty average show that a 7 year old might like, but nothing beyond that. They could've executed this better.

The animation seem somehow bleak and cheap, trying to make the scenes as curtailed and limited, no detailed background teaming with life and color. The now supposedly master has reverted a few steps back into buffonery with jokes that will not make anyone but a small child smile. In general one feels like watching once favourite characters do their thing again and jump up and down the screen but in quickly put together , subaverage plot with recycled jokes so that kids can maybe smile at seeing them again and ask their parents to watch it again. Thats it at best, for kids and the cut off age low.

This show is just about making money , nobody seemed to care to make it also good.

Story progresses so slow that if you miss several of the middle episodes still it will create no impact on the storyline. PO is so strong in movies and here he's shown very weak and immature. Kids will definitely love it but as a kung fu panda trilogy fan I didn't liked it at all.

Po is undeniably an audience favorite and a spin-off series with Po voiced by the legendary Jack Black sounds like a good idea. But is it? The animation is poor with a few good-looking frame. You get used to it after a while and it's definetly watchable. Kids will like it.

The story is basically Infinity War. The trilogy was already perfect and it showed Po grow into a true master, and now this is what he acts like? It's however not the biggest deal since there's been Kung Fu Panda spin-offs before. It's a fun watch but nothing close to the movies, but kids will enjoy it.

Tired of seeing a dragon master as weak and helpless We want him as a proper teacher not a cry baby Give him cool chi powers of oogway Story is good except weak po but too long Poor animstions 2008 movie is better No budget for fight choreography?
