The Forbidden Kingdom

I went to see the movie today and it's 'Okay' for me. I read some reviews few days ago and it's not the movie they consider GOOD movie. I go to watch it anyway and it's not as bad, it's just kinda funny cos' even Jade Emporer speaks English. Sun Wu Kong and Drunken Master also speak English. And the funny part is all these Chinese character have an accent when they speak English. And a lot of things that they said are direct translation from Chinese and some really sound weird. Other than that it's all action and imagination. Logic doesn't work here.

I do agree with one of the review that the movie was made to suits the appetite of Ang Mohs. When the kid somehow got thru the 'Gate of No Gate' to a place where no one speak English and suddenly after Jackie Chan appears, everyone started to speak English! Even old monks from temple too! The story is all fiction and for me it's always fun to watch Jackie Chan and Jet Li bcos' I loved their previous movies. Even though the story line is not as strong as expected, it's still feel good for me to watch JC and JL on big screen. It doesn't even matter if they're not sharing the same screen.

After all, I'm a movie fanatic! Enjoy the show and have a good laugh even if doesn't live up to the expectation. Life is too short to complain, live it to the fullest! Cheerios!!!
