Kung Fu Panda was also well received in China. [45] It made nearly 110million Yuan by July 2, 2008, becoming the first animated film to earn more than 100million Yuan in China. [46] [47] The Chinese director Lu Chuan commented, "From a production standpoint, the movie is nearly perfect. Its American creators showed a very sincere attitude about Chinese culture." [48] [49] The film's critical and commercial success in China led to some local introspection about why no film like Kung Fu Panda had been produced in China, with commentators attributing the problem variously to lower film budgets in China, too much government oversight, a dearth of national imagination, and an overly reverent attitude to China's history and cultural icons.
