Ambivalence reloaded ! The innocent humor, the charm of all the characters continues to impress, 10/10 for that ! The philosophical nerve seems lost except when first Shifu and then Po exemplify 'I ence reloaded ! The innocence, splendid humor and the charm of the characters, even the new Pandas, continues, 10/10 for that ! Animation - as splendid as ever The philosophical nerve seems to be gradually dwindling, there were only two times I felt it - once when both Shifu and Po practice 'I am trying to turn you into YOU' and when Master Oogway reveals that he chose Po as he had seen the past and through the future. The villain, Kai, fails to make a mark, seems more like a backstreet goon. The plot itself is cliched and handled hastily, for example, how can accomplished masters like Ox, Croc. make a mistake of directly engaging Kai and losing their Chi ? The end(everyone 'donating' their Chi, the Spirit Well etc.) is unbecoming, especially, when this movie is desperately attempting to resemble the first part. Even Hans Zimmer disappoints - no welcome additions to the earlier classics !
