So at the end when Po redirect the cannon ball into different direction using his Chi, that scene reminds me of Shaolin Soccer's ending where the goalie redirect the soccer ball back.
And then at the end, Po tries to persuade Lord Shen to become a better person but then Shen turns on Po with a hidden dagger has almost same ending as the Kung Fu Hustle when Sing was fighting the Beast. All three are fun movies to watch. Anyone see similar scene from other Kung Fu movies?

I am reminded of The Last Dragon. Where there good guy finds peace and accepts he is a master and gets a glow about him and not only defeats the bad Kung Fu guy by also can reflect bullets.

The first film reminded me quite a bit of Kung Fu Hustle...unlikely hero protects a valley/town, climatic battle on location, and super final move.

The first film was an obvious take on Seven Samurai. Title Link: Shichinin no samurai (1954)
The second one a loose reworking of the story of Moses. Title Link: The Ten Commandments (1956)

Note: This is not a challenge for anyone to start listing the numerous ways in which the Panda films are different from the ones that inspired them. That is not the point - at all. I already realize that Charlton Heston never looked like a cartoon panda bear and so on.

Eeek!!! I'm getting dressed.
