Editorial Review: Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 03/24/2009 Run time: 24 minutes Rating: Nr Secrets of the Furious Five Reviews: Aunt buying for nephew  2009-11-27 - DVD was in great condition. Just like new. I did have to wait over 3 weeks to receive it, but I think that was a postal issue, since we have expreienced those before.
I expected to be a hit  2009-09-12 - I ordered this because my 5 year old loves Kung Fu Panda and reading the reviews of this one I thought he was going to love it
but he saw it only once and never again in two months, maybe latter he'll like it. BTY I love Kung Fu Panda too.
The Five are back!  2009-05-21 - We all enjoyed this film, adults and children alike and watch it again and again. A good one to buy.
"Furious Five" share their "secrets"  2009-04-17 - This is a great little video for children who need to remember to practice the "secrets". My grandson loves it and only needs a gentle reminder to "practice the secrets of the furious five". Highly recommended!
My kids love this  2009-04-12 - My kids love this DVD, more than the actual Kung Fu Panda DVD. I think they relate more to the characters, especially Tigress who is presented as a child who needs to learn to control her temper. Then of course there's the narrative frame of Po teaching children their first kung fu class. What can I say? Kids like to see other kids. It also helps that there are 5 short stories told, so they don't have to stay involved in the long story arc of a feature length film.
From a parent's perspective, there's still a bunch of fighting and violence depicted in this movie, but the point of the stories is to learn a virtue, not to be a great fighter (although, naturally, in the movie it is the virtue itself that propels the character into becoming a great fighter - nothing's perfect LOL).
We bought Kung Fu Panda as a single disc - now it is often bundled with The Secrets of the Furious Five. I was happy to see Secrets as a single to buy because I didn't want to re-buy KFP just to get it. This DVD is a keeper, so far. My kid is watching it and playing with her stuffed Po and Tigress toys right now.
