THE #1 ANIMATED COMEDY OF THE YEAR
STARRING JACK BLACK COMES HOME
NOW WITH OVER AN HOUR OF EXCLUSIVE BONUS CONTENT FEATURING CAST & CHARACTER FAVORITES



NOW YOURS TO OWN

ON DIGITAL, 4K ULTRA HD, BLU-RAY™ AND DVD

FROM UNIVERSAL PICTURES HOME ENTERTAINMENT


This past Friday night for our weekly family movie night, we watched KUNG FU PANDA 4, which released to Digital, 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray and DVD back on May 28th.  If you missed this movie when it was in theaters, and loved the previous 3 Kung Fu Panda movies, I highly recommend you pick up this new release as it will delight families (kids and adults alike).  I couldn't believe how much I loved this movie franchise until we watched the 4th movie in the franchise.  Can you believe the last Ku Fu Panda movie, the third installment, released back on January 16, 2016?  If feels like so long ago. After watching the newest Kung Fu Panda 4 movie, we ended up going back and watching the first 3, followed by the 4th one again over the weekend. It was so much fun watching the previous movies in the franchise and seeing our favorite scenes.  This is one of those animated kids franchises that works with additional releases, even after 5+ years since the previous release.  

We can't get enough of Jack Black as Po, and the 4th installment didn't disappoint. It was full of laughs, adventure and fun, and had us all glued to our seats from beginning to end. And, once the movie was over, we took time to watch all the bonus content which included deleted scenes, shorts, meet the cast, featurettes, a super fun draw along, and so much more.  If you end up picking up this movie to watch with you family, which I highly recommend, make sure you take time to watch and enjoy all the bonus content -- it is worth it!

I am so excited not only because I was sent the movie to review, thanks to the kind folks at Universal Pictures Home Entertainment, but also because they, along with Team Click, are offering a Blu-Ray copy as a giveaway copy for one lucky Inspired by Savannah reader to win, and enjoy this family-friendly movie with their family and friends this summer and beyond. Be sure to read on to learn how to enter this fun KUNG FU PANDA 4 Blu-Ray Giveaway. :-)

More about this movie release:

"The search for the new Dragon Warrior is on! Po learns he must face his biggest villain yet and embarks on a hilarious mission with his new team of misfits in KUNG FU PANDA 4, available with over an hour of extras on Digital, 4K UHD, Blu-rayTM and DVD May 28, 2024, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. The never-before-seen bonus content includes dumpling making with Jack Black, Bad Bunnies commentary, deleted scenes, as well as the original animated short “Dueling Dumplings”!

Emmy winner and Golden Globe® nominee Jack Black (The Super Mario Bros. Movie, School of Rock) returns as Po, the world’s most unlikely kung fu master, in this butt-kicking new chapter from DreamWorks Animation’s beloved action-comedy franchise: KUNG FU PANDA 4. After learning he must find a new hero to take over as Dragon Warrior so that he may fulfill his destiny as the next spiritual leader of the Valley of Peace, Po decides to take one last adventurous mission. He teams up with a quick-witted thief named Zhen, voiced by Awkwafina (Migration, The Bad Guys), a corsac fox, to discover the truth about recent sightings of villains he’s defeated in the past. In a journey that puts both to the test, it will take a wicked, powerful sorceress, The Chameleon, voiced by Oscar® winner Viola Davis (Ender’s Game, The Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes), to bring them together and remind Po that heroes can be found in the most unexpected places.
 

 

With the release of KUNG FU PANDA 4, the franchise has grossed over two billion dollars at the global box-office.
