Po, a clumsy panda, is a kung fu fanatic who lives in the Valley
of
Peace and
works in his goose father Mr. Ping's noodle shop, unable to realize his dream of
learning kung
fu. One day, a kung fu tournament is held for the elderly spiritual leader of the
valley, Grand
Master Oogway, to determine the identity of the Dragon Warrior, the one kung fu
master
capable
of understanding the secret of the Dragon Scroll, which is said to contain the key
to
limitless
power.
Everyone in the valley expects the Dragon Warrior to be one of the Furious
Five—Tigress,
Monkey,
Mantis, Viper, and Crane—a quintet of kung fu warriors trained by Master Shifu to
protect the
valley. To everyone's surprise, Oogway chooses Po, who had accidentally stumbled
into
the
tournament arena after arriving late via fireworks explosion.
Po is now living his dream as the Dragon Warrior, protecting the
Valley of
Peace alongside his friends and fellow kung fu masters, the Furious Five. But Po's
new life
of
awesomeness is threatened by the emergence of a formidable villain, who plans to use
a
secret,
unstoppable weapon to conquer China and destroy kung fu.
