Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) This pretty much winds itself down to a whole bunch of fart jokes. Jul 22, 2022 Full Review Larushka Ivan-Zadeh Times (UK) No fewer than seven screenwriters are credited on this tiresome Kung Fu Panda rip-off... Characters are stereotypical and the lazy approach to Asian culture offensive. Rated: 2/5 Jul 22, 2022 Full Review Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) Paws of Fury is precisely as inane as its premise makes it sound – think Kung Fu Panda, but blander – though it has been cobbled together with a certain honest doltishness that tends to play well with its young target audience. Rated: 2/5 Jul 21, 2022 Full Review Kevin Sampson Picture Lock It’s riddled with fart jokes and sophomoric humor, while also having witty lines that you need to pay attention to catch. It’s this strange in between that makes this movie memorable and forgettable at the same time. Rated: C Jan 5, 2023 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness If you love terrible puns, a bevy of Mel Brooks-related references, and samurais crossing swords, you could do far worse than "Paws of Fury." Rated: 3/5 Oct 18, 2022 Full Review James Croot Stuff.co.nz There’s arguably enough action, visual, verbal and scatological gags to keep the kids entertained. Rated: 3/5 Sep 29, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

I had pretty low expectations for the movie, but a great cast and a healthy dose of puns and fourth wall breaking had me amused. The constant references to other movies was also great.
