The Forbidden Kingdom

While hunting down bootleg kung-fu DVDs in a Chinatown pawnshop, Jason makes an extraordinary discovery that sends him hurtling back in time to ancient China. There, Jason is charged with a monumental task: he must free the fabled warrior the Monkey King, who has been imprisoned by the evil Jade Warlord. Jason is joined in his quest by wise kung fu master Lu Yan and a band of misfit warriors including Silent Monk. But only by learning the true precepts of kung fu can Jason hope to succeed - and find a way to get back home.

Jackie Chan and Jet Li get together for the first time on the screen to make a fantasy adventure film.

It’s already enough to attract movie lovers with two great stars Jackie Chan and Jet Li. After long wait, we are going to see the fantastic Jet Li and Jacky Chan together in The Forbidden kingdom. The plot is quite interesting and we can guess there must be a lot of good martial arts and funny performance. It seems it has great choreogrphy as well.

All of the colorful and chaotic characters in the film are based on Chinese mythology.

The film is based on the ancient Chiness legend of the Monkey king who is a master of Kung Fu, magic and wisdom. Long story short four main characters are tring to bring down the Jade Warlord (a bad guy) and free people of his kingdom.

Hope it’s not only focus on Jackie Chan and Jet Li’s fighting

It’s ture many people would choose to watch this film because of the two big starts and the movie producers would know about that. However I hope this movie is not only focuing on their fighting. As the story is very famous and good to know, I hope they don’t mess up the story too much and and just to be too hollywood style. If you are interested in the Monkey King’s story, here you can have a read.

Anyway, It’s quite interesting to see the big stars in the same movie and is a must-watch movie this year!
