After three death-defying adventures defeating world-class villains with his unmatched courage and mad martial arts skills, Po, the Dragon Warrior (Golden Globe nominee Jack Black), is called upon by destiny to... give it a rest already. More specifically, he's tapped to become the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace. That poses a couple of obvious problems. First, Po knows as much about spiritual leadership as he does about the paleo diet, and second, he needs to quickly find and train a new Dragon Warrior before he can assume his new lofty position. Even worse, there's been a recent sighting of a wicked, powerful sorceress, Chameleon (Oscar® winner Viola Davis), a tiny lizard who can shapeshift into any creature, large or small. And Chameleon has her greedy, beady little eyes on Po's Staff of Wisdom, which would give her the power to re-summon all the master villains whom Po has vanquished to the spirit realm. So, Po’s going to need some help. He finds it (kinda?) in the form of crafty, quick-witted thief Zhen (Golden Globe winner Awkwafina), a corsac fox who really gets under Po’s fur but whose skills will prove invaluable. In their quest to protect the Valley of Peace from Chameleon’s reptilian claws, this comedic odd-couple duo will have to work together. In the process, Po will discover that heroes can be found in the most unexpected places.

Critics Consensus

Kung Fu Panda 4 offers enough eye-catching entertainment to sustain the franchise's young fans, although it's starting to feel like this series is running out of steam.

Audience Says

Kung Fu Panda 4 is fun for the whole family -- maybe not as much fun as the first three, but still a good time.

Mark Kermode

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

If the script was sharper or funnier and if the gags were better maybe you wouldn't notice, but it does feel like a lot of it is a bunch of people in recording booths doing some schtick and them animating around it.

Times (UK)

The plot may be cursory — Po has to graduate to spiritual leader of the Valley of Peace and find a successor for his job as dragon warrior — but Black attacks it with knockabout zeal.

Rated: 4/5

Irish Times

Caveats and niggles ultimately don’t dent the magnanimous-natured enjoyment. A lesser Kung Fu Panda movie remains vastly superior to most mainstream animated features.

Rated: 3/4

'Kung Fu Panda' keeps the action going in a fun franchise.

Sean P. Means

The Movie Cricket

As the movie progresses through its emotional beats, its subplot involving the partnership between Mr. Ping and Po’s panda dad, Li, and its menagerie of comical side characters, it’s hard to shake the feeling that we’ve been here before.

Rated: 3/4

James Mottram

South China Morning Post

True, Kung Fu Panda 4 doesn’t exactly reinvent the wheel, with Po up to his old tricks of fighting and eating. But Mitchell keeps it feeling fresh, especially through the addition of Awkwafina and Davis.

Rated: 3.5/5

I add two tickets to my 6 tickets already paid for and ordered online. I add the tickets online 30 minutes before the movie. Got to the theater and the code was only good for 6 not 8 , so I had to pay for two more tickets at the theater.
