the forbidden kingdom .

Just watched this with jet li and jackie chan.
Very good if you like martial arts and chinese fantasy type movies.Jet li plays the monkey king and also a monk .Jacvkie chan is great as a drunken immortal.
Really enjoyed it and thought that Yifei Liu was verrrrrry pretty.
The young guy Michael Angarano was good in it too.
Good fun movie and better than a lot of stuff out just now.

Anyone else seen it ?

excellent film, but I would say that being a martial artist. Fave bit: -

"ahh Mantis kungfu? Good for killing bugs, but not good for killing tigers!"

" He who speaks, does not Know; He who Knows, does not speak. Surely you're masterful. "

alot of people turn their noses up at people like Jackie Chan and Jet Li and say that their stuff is just for show, but both of them are fully accomplished kungfu artists. jackie Chan more so than Jet Li. Both part of the Chinese Opera, and wushu schools of china.

jackie Chan has a lot of styles under his belt including drunken style, monkey and tiger. they know their stuff
