violence
  • Martial arts-style combat is common both in training scenes and in the protagonists' face-offs with villains. Machines play a role in the fighting at times, which ups the intensity but never really hurts the characters. Mild peril and verbal threats of harm and implied death may be too much for very young viewers. —Common Sense Media
  • Tame animated martial arts. Some mildly suggestive weapon violence.
  • A scary boor destroys anyone who gets in his path. A scene of kung fu fighting action including lots of kicks and punches. —Common Sense Media
  • Tame animated martial arts. Mild intensity.
  • Tame animated martial arts. Very mild intensity.
  • Lots of martial arts fighting, both in groups and one on one. Villain Kai, an angry supernatural bull monster, is intense and scary, as are his jade warriors. Sad flashbacks to Po's separation from his mother when he was a cub. Key characters are captured/in danger. Po makes a big sacrifice that could upset some kids. Additional creative fighting via the use of Chinese food -- spring rolls, dumplings, etc. -- as well as nunchucks and other means of attack. Perilous trek to panda village. Slapstick falls/crashes. —Common Sense Media
  • Not surprisingly, there's lots of martial arts action -- expect tons of high-flying clashes that include punches, kicks, falls, and more. That said, the fights are generally more thrilling than frightening, though they could upset kids 5 and under -- particularly the sequence in which villain Tai Lung breaks out of a maximum security prison. —Common Sense Media
  • Plenty of martial arts action and a few big, scary characters like a gorilla warrior, an island of armed gators, and a big ox. As a cub, the Tigress lives in an orphanage where everyone fears her temper. The extras include kids teaching some basic martial arts moves.—Common Sense Media
  • Tame animated martial arts and mild weapon violence. Shen and his henchmen use cannons at the characters, but the impact is not shown. Mild intensity.
  • Very tame animated martial arts. Very mild intensity.
  • Plenty of hand-to-hand combat. The fight scenes are fast and furious, but hardly anybody seems to get injured. An important theme here is modernization, as the martial arts warriors must face off against an opponent who's armed with gunpowder and cannons. Scenes involving a baby Po being separated from his parent may upset some kids. —Common Sense Media
  • As in the movie, there are a couple of scenes of high-flying martial-arts action with kicks and punches, but the effect isn’t scary at all. A subplot follows a character’s efforts to get Po to kill him after he feels he’s brought shame on his village, but again, the effect is more humorous than frightening. —Common Sense Media

He must look to his past and uncover the secrets of his mysterious origins; only then will he be able to unlock the strength he needs to succeed.
  • Po's favorite holiday is the Winter Feast. Every year he and his father hang decorations, cook together all day, and serve noodle soup to a happy crowd of villagers. But this year, Shifu informs Po that as Dragon Warrior, it is his duty to host the highly formal Winter Feast at the Jade Palace. Po is caught between his obligations as the Dragon Warrior and his family traditions, between Shifu and Mr. Ping. As the holiday preparations escalate, Po finds it impossible to please both of them.
