First, a disclaimer: I really, really love the movie. Have watched it about a dozen times in just a month and it is fantastic in blu-ray on my PS3. So naturally, I got the PS3 version of this game, rather than on Wii, which I also have. Despite having 2 gaming systems, I am not a great or hard-core gamer. The Kung Fu Panda game has 3 levels: student; master; and Dragon Warrior, which correspond to easy, intermediate and hard. I don't know, I'm still playing the first time through on student mode. Some of it on this mode is too easy--but not for children; but some of the battles take quick reflexes which are quite challenging for the not-so-young. I think this game would be good for all ages, especially if you liked the movie.
And speaking of the movie, the directors' commentary said that ideas they left out of the movie--backstory, adventures, characters--are developed in the game. For example, Po is unable to watch the Furious Five competing to be chosen as Dragon Warrior and has to take drastic means to get into the stadium. In the game, you not only get to see Tigress fight the enormous wooden monster, you get to play as her for that event. Throughout the game you get to temporarily play as the other members of the Five and even as Master Shifu. Really fun, imaginative, and not boring or repetitive as many "based on a movie" games often are.
I will update my review after/if I finish the game but at this point, I highly recommend.Get more detail about Kung Fu Panda.
