The Forbidden Kingdom (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts
 "The Forbidden Kingdom" is a zany movie based on Chinese folklore and references many martial arts films, but really it did not impress me.
I love a good Jackie Chan picture and a good Jet Li film, but what are they doing in this picture? I really wish the director could have showcased their talent better. The action was good but silly and amusing most of the time. The jokes and goofiness often just fell flat.
I admit that I did have an alright time watching it. I wasn't bored one bit. Hey at least it took up 2 hours of my life.
"The Forbidden Kingdom" is not the worst film ever made, but it is also not that good. There is a lot of people calling this a classic just don't be fooled by those remarks it was an okay film. |
