READ MOREReview: 'Kung Fu Panda 2' Is Fun, Funny, And Furious!
Once upon a time in the year 2008, an animated film titled ‘KUNG FU PANADA’ was released, and took the world by storm. Oddly enough, prior to the film’s release, I will be honest and say I had ZERO interest. I’m a fan of Jack Black, as well as the rest of the cast, but there was something I felt was too superficial about it which made me believe it was simply JUST ANOTHER kiddie’s flick! Time went on, it was taken down from the theaters, and all I kept hearing was how awesome the film was. Months went on, and once its DVD was released, I bit the bullet, and decided to give this film my time...

And Jolie admits she can really relate to her strong-willed animated character Tigress in the new film "Kung Fu Panda 2" because she too has struggled to communicate love and warmth.

Trailer Talk: This Week In Movies - 'The Hangover Part II,' 'Kung Fu Panda 2,' & More
Johnny Depp set sail again last week as Captain Jack Sparrow in “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” the fourth entry in the series. After viewing the movie, I can honestly say that it’s not the best in the franchise, but certainly not the worst either.

Captain Jack runs into an old love interest, Angelica (Penelope Cruz), who convinces him to join her on a quest for the Fountain of Youth. Sparrow unwittingly climbs aboard the vessel of Angelica’s father, Blackbeard (Ian M...
