Forbidden kingdom

Forbidden Kingdom is a movie, fans of the action/comedy genre will enjoy. The story centers on some legend and so you could call it a fantasy movie in some sense. Fans of Jackie Chan and Jet Li will love it. The action sequences in the movie are power packed and full of stylish kicks and flips in the air that have come to be so popular since the premiere of 'Crouching tiger, hidden Dragon' . The protagonist is a teenage Kung-Fu fanatic, played by Michael Angarano and the bloke has done justice to the role.



I just enjoyed the whole movie, especially since I'm a great fan of Jackie. The movie strides on a paper thin plot, but it is more than sufficient to give an hour and half of enjoyable experience. If you are an avid fan of action sequences that Jackie Chan and Jet Li have come to epitomize, you will relish this treat.


It is strictly not recommended for the serious minded folks though. There is more form over substance but a refreshing new experience delivered by two veterans. If you are game for some harmless moments of adorable action, strongly punctuated with an undercurrent of humor, just go see it!
