Kung Fu Panda 4 has finally arrived, and there were some big promises that were made for this film. The Dragon Warrior was supposed to face his most heinous villain yet, The Chameleon, all of Po’s past enemies (Tai Lung, Lord Shen, and General Kai) were all returning in some way, and we were told Po would ascend to become the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace. Zhen and Po were supposedly going to go the most epic adventure yet, but did we really get that? Unfortunately, I don't think so.

ABOUT ME
I'm Isaac Carlson, a creator based in Orlando, Florida, and ever since I can remember I’ve loved Disney. My fondest childhood memories come from visiting Walt Disney World with my family. I grew up loving Spider-Man, Star Wars, Pixar, and the classic animated films from Disney. The stories, characters, and worlds I adored as a child eventually inspired me to create videos of my own here on YouTube, and it changed my life. On this channel, I explore the characters and worlds that ignite the child within all of us! My goal is to create a community built on wonder, positivity, and optimism where passionate fans can unite to celebrate the magic of animated films. Here, we believe dreams can come true.

Have a magical day! #kungfupanda #dreamworks #animation #filmtheory #kungfupanda4 #moviereview

    I hated making this video. This was supposed to be an ending explained video, but by the time I was through writing it, I realized it was more of an overview of my thoughts of the movie. I could call it a movie review formally in the title, but I don't know. I just wanted to get some of these thoughts out concisely before I start breaking down all of the subjects I brought up in this video one by one. I didn't even dive into the Staff of Wisdom or all of my thoughts on Tai Lung's relationship with Po! This year though I'm trying to be more honest, upfront, and transparent with my thoughts on the subject matter I'm discussing, and this is unfortunately an example of that. But just because Kung Fu Panda 4 disappointed me, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it. I want you to be able to have fun with things! I don't want to add to the noise and be a megaphone for hate. I desperately wanted to love Kung Fu Panda 4! I just couldn't hold back that truth about how I felt. Let me know what you thought of the video! I'm always open to constructive feedback! Of course, thanks for watching, and I hope you have a magical day! 🐼

    Po: passed the title of Dragon Warrior to an unknown thief. Tigress: Am I a joke to you?
  • @footymo9740
    Shen : commits genocide Chameleon : pushes someone through the stairs
  • @jgiorgis1072
    Man, I’m really disappointed that tigress wasn’t appointed as the dragon warrior. She had more experience than Po and had a much deeper connection than that random fox thief.
  • @Kaidy907
    How to ruin a movie 1)Have Akwafina 2)Make villains motive dumb 3)Not have the OG director Edit: 700 likes is crazy Edit 2: I have started a war :/
  • @Jonathan_Collins
    One of my biggest fears has come true. And it's that Puss in Boots 2 wasn't a sign of a new direction for DreamWorks, it was an anomaly.
  • @katemiller4084
    I am so disappointed that they brought back Lord Shen and he does not speak. I mean there was so much potential. Heck, they had a whole subplot of Po’s panda dad learning to be brave, what is braver than facing the peacock who attacked your village, was responsible for killing your friends, family and wife and the reason you were separated from your son for years. An interaction between them would have been golden.
  • @DanGamingFan2846
    First thing Tai Lung did on screen was break out of prison and kill all the guards. Lord Shen, commits panda genocide. General Kai, takes Oogway's chi. First thing the Chameleon does: Pushes someone down a bunch of stairs. And they survive. And Shifu already did that to Po in yhe first one. At that to her morals making no sense when you remember Mantis exists and you have the weakest KFP villain yet.
  • @dewaddlehaloqs
    chameleon should have acted like an actual chameleon causing doubt and impersonating as po’s friends and family making po unsure of who he can trust or not or pretending to be po and destroy his reputation. I also wanted shifu to see “tai lung” and shifu getting mad when he realises that someone stole tai lung kung fu or impersonating him not to mention kai and shen had no voice lines i also wanted shen to see po’s father and i kinda wanted to see the thundering rhino again the one who got killed by shen
  • @beans00001
    Kung fu panda 4 feels like a tv special that plays on nickelodeon every now and then, what a shame
  • Honestly the chameleon feels like it had so much potential but her origin of beign too "small"... Mantis would like a Word on the matter
  • I also full heartedly agree that Po seeking out and choosing his successor should have been solely HIS own self made decision rather than Shifu practically forcing that decision upon him which yeah… this has always been the problem I’ve had with Shifu
  • @PvPThreat
    One idea that I would think would have worked better is if the Chameleon hunted down the Furious Five and took their Kung Fu and use their Kung Fu against Po. That way we could have seen more of the Furious Five in the movie and Po would have had to fight his best friends. The Five have never had a villain that's directly related towards them (aside from Tai Lung and who would get the dragon scroll). Po, Shifu and Oogway each had a villain with a backstory but the Five haven't. The Chameleon could have had a backstory about how maybe she wasn't good enough to be a part of the Five or have had some backstory with them. That could have given Chameleon more depth in character.
  • Tai Lung: Tests Po’s physical prowess Shen: Test's Po’s mental prowess Kai: Tests Po's spiritual prowess Chameleon: Tests nothing audience's patience Her motivation makes no sense and the most evil thing she does, Shifu already did to Po in the first movie. She can have the combined power of all the villains, but she's undoubtedly the weakest of the franchise.
  • @Gregg_Magic
    Tai Lung not being a main character and getting a full story was a SLAP in our faces!
  • @Zorieon
    The Chameleon felt like one member of a quirky villain group. Shapeshifting powers, cool design, and a random single sentence backstory. I could see her losing to one of the Furious Five while Po and the others climatically defeat their own opponents.
  • @user-sc6jh1ch3z
    Chameleon: I became a villain because they can't teach me due to me being small. Mantis: am I joke to you?
  • @Progamer1013
    It's like whoever was in charge of this movie went: "Hey, let's take the first three movies... AND DO NONE OF THAT! Kung Fu Panda 4!"
  • What's sad is that the co director wanted this movie to be more like 1st and 2nd one's bit wasn't allowed to since the main director had the control.
