Kung Fu Panda is an Academy Award and Golden Globe-nominated and 11 Annie Award-winning 2008 American animated comedy blockbuster. It was directed by John Stevenson and Mark Osborne and produced by Melissa Cobb. The film was produced by DreamWorks Animation’s studio in Glendale, California and distributed by Paramount Pictures. The film stars the voices of Jack Black as the panda, Po, along with Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Ian McShane, Lucy Liu, Seth Rogen, David Cross, Randall Duk Kim and Jackie Chan. Set in ancient China, the plot revolves around a bumbling panda who aspires to be a kung fu master. After a much feared warrior is predicted to escape from prison, Po is foretold to be the Dragon Warrior, much to the chagrin of the resident kung fu warriors. DreamWorks is working on a sequel to Kung Fu Panda, which is currently in pre-production.[4]
Although the concept of a “kung fu panda” has been around since at least 1993,[5] the idea for the film was conceived by Michael Lachance,[6] a DreamWorks Animation executive. Work on the film did not begin until 2004. The film was originally intended to be a parody, but director Stevenson decided to instead shoot an action comedy martial arts film in the spirit of Hong Kong action cinema that incorporates the hero’s journey narrative archetype for the lead character. The computer animation in the film was more complex than anything DreamWorks had done before. As with most DreamWorks animated films, Hans Zimmer (collaborating with John Powell this time around) scored Kung Fu Panda. He visited China to absorb the culture and get to know the China National Symphony Orchestra as part of his preparation.
Kung Fu Panda premiered in the United States on June 1 2008, and has since received very favorable reviews from critics. The film currently garners an 89% “Certified Fresh” approval rating from review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. Kung Fu Panda opened in 4,114 theaters, grossing $20.3 million on its opening day and $60.2 million on its opening weekend, resulting in the number one position at the box office. The film has resulted in DreamWorks’ biggest opening for a non-sequel film, highest grossing animated movie of the year, and the third-largest weekend overall for a DreamWorks animated film, behind Shrek the Third and Shrek 2.

Let my memory deep inside the film are that dialogue:
Turtle: Yes, look at this tree, I can not let it flower, but also should not allow it to grow up with advancing.
Master: But some things we can control, I can control when the fruits fall, I can also control where sowing, that is not illusion, Master.
Tortoise: ah yes, however no matter what you what to do, the seeds grow into a peach after all, you might want to apple or orange, but you can only get peaches, or the seeds Still grow into a peach tree.
Master: But peach can not beat Tai Lang.
Turtle: it may be possible, if you are willing to guide it, nourish it, and trust it.

When I can not achieve my aim, I often feel annoyed ,Even I think I am just the peach, but I want to be a apple in fact.
Turtle said, as long as you are willing to guide it, nourish it, and trust it, even the peach can do what apple will be able to do, by different ways.

I think each person has its own characteristics, but they chose disparate way to go, whether it is an apple or peach, are the same fruit. The definition of success for each person is different, I think as long as the reach of its own success, is really successful. One’s the biggest enemy is not others but themselves
