Last night I saw The Forbidden Kingdom.
It was awesome.
Ever since I saw my first Jet Li movie back in 1994, I’ve wanted to see him together with Jackie Chan. That’s a long time to wait. That wait is now over.
The movie was good—more than your typical gungfu movie. It has a story that is more than just an excuse to move from fight to fight. But it is also full of a long of gungfu movie cliches.
Jet Li did an excellent job playing Sun Wu Kong (Sun Goku), the Monkey King. The fight scene between Jet Li and Jackie Chan was awesome.
All in all, if you like action movies, this is one of the best I’ve seen a long time ago. Don’t miss it.
