I say thank heavens it's not "Kung Fu Penguin."
"Kung Fu Panda," the formulaic, but entertaining and often dazzling animated extravaganza from DreamWorks, is a 3-D effort featuring Jack Black as Po, a panda whose father, Mr. Ping (James Hong of "Chinatown," "Blade Runner"), is a goose.
If you think that might be confusing, Po, who works at his father's popular noodle shop, has no kung fu skills.
