There are a few good gags, a well-milled pace that keeps the action flowing, and some funny enough one-liners to tickle adult fancies. Although as a total package it’s horrifically bland and forgettable the moment the credits start. Go to Full Review Enid Román Almansa Cinemanía (Spain) 04/09/2025

A courageous panda, his dragon friend and a royal lion cub with a scheming uncle – Panda Bear in Africa repackages its influences so shamelessly that you almost have to give it credit. Go to Full Review Laia Cabuli EscribiendoCine 11/19/2024

Dennis B @RT00855600 10/21/2024 It has some good points for kids. However, like others have said, it kinda feels like a rip off of a few other movies that have come before. 2.25/5 See more Jakub T @RT19761127 10/20/2024 It's has a quite good story, but I can't really recommend it since of its animation; it looks like a ripoff of Kung Fu Panda.
