"Kung Fu Panda 3" is a darker and scarier follow-up to the 2008 original, adding horrific layers of background and culminating with a shocking reveal of parental identity. Its themes of tenacity and self-knowledge are brought to gratifying fulfillment while maintaining the saga's charming lightness of touch. Emotionally, emotionally, and artistically, it is as amply proportioned as its lovable warrior hero.
Simmons lends his wicked voice to Kai, while Cranston gives Po's panda father a pained gravitas, and returning voice performers deliver their usual top-notch performances. Mr. Ping, played by Hong, is an ardent supporter of interspecies adoption who pushes this animal cartoon fantasy closer to humanity.
