Review: This hyperactive, martial arts-fueled animated film appropriates a Chinese myth for American audience consumption. The trailer struggles to find the action highs that will make it stand out against the likes of Kung Fu Panda, which did far better at creating tension, humor, and action sequences than this trailer has.
Oscar Prospects:
An original film is sure to contend for Best Animated Feature, though a win is exceedingly unlikely.
