I just watched The Forbidden Kingdom at Cineleisure today.. me and baby had full anticipation with this movie.. cos it is the first movie starring both Jackie Chan and Jet Li together.. and it turns out to be really disappointing.. besides the usual fighting scenes that can be found in their existing movie and the graphics in this movie.. nothing else is good anymore.. the storyline sucks so badly.. and the funniest thing is all of the characters were dressed up like the Ching Dynasty era.. but they speak and communicate in English in this movie.. I know they wanna push this movie further.. but I rather that they till speak in Mandarin or Cantonese and have English subtitles instead.. not to say both J's speak very fluent English..
Mainly the story is based on The Monkey God.. but somehow and some of the parts felt more like The Lord Of The Rings.. or perhaps Harry Potter.. or even Ju On.. haha.. the Ju On part is when the white hair lady starts to pull and climb on her on hair when she fell of the cliff.. I just cannot start laughing and laughing throughout the whole movie.. Anyhow, this is not a must watch movie.. but to watch it just for the sake of the two J's then go ahead.. but watch it like I did today.. choose to watch on the Wednesday.. only RM6.. cheap cheap.. at least I don't have to pay RM10 or more for this.. just not worthy..
