In 2011 the sequel to the DreamWorks movie, Kung Fu Panda 2, appeared in theaters and it was very pleasant to see how this film has surpassed the standards imposed by the first one, being more exciting, touching and spiritual. Since its inception it evokes nostalgia for master Oogway, a character who died in the first film, when he is used for the production company logo. After there is the two-dimensional intro that pays homage to the one used in the first chapter of the saga. It is nice to see Po‘s maturation as a kung fu warrior and the development of the relationship it has with its friends, the five cyclones, who, despite having little space in this film, show how the union makes the force.
The villain, Lord Shen, a crown prince disowned by his parents for turning fireworks powder in powder for cannons, is the emblem of the progress that advances and tries to destroy the tradition, in this case the kung fu. A sheepguess predicts the defeat of the Lord by the hand of a black and white warrior, a clear reference to Po that embodies the balance of the Tao, and this will also be the key point on which the common history between the warrior and Lord Shen is based.
The fight scenes are stunning, but my favorite is the one where the dragon warrior can achieve inner peace that combines martial art and spirituality, making it truly spectacular.

Legendary!
G, I love this movie.
Here are 15 lessons I learned from Kung Fu Panda 2
01 Never lose your sense of humor.
02 Nightmares are visualizations of your inner fears.
03 We must do, what we are afraid to do.
04 If your heart is filled with hate, it can never be filled with love.
05 Live in the moment. The here and now is the only thing that matters.
06 If you are angry, it doesn't help to release it on a pole or people next to you.
07 The problems we have, are only (reflections) inside our self.
08 If you want to find inner peace, you need to let go.
09 You are yourself your biggest enemy.
10 When you accept your past & accept who you are - you can access your full potential.
11 Anything is possible (if you are in inner peace).
12 Nobody can tell you who you are, you have to discover it for yourself.
13 Revenge can blow up in your face and your victory will be short lived.
14 Everything happens for a reason - even pain will result in meaning (loss of parents -> dragon warrior).
15 Never give up.
