      coming soon.

      A discovery made by a kung fu obsessed American teen sends him on an adventure to China, where he joins up with a band of martial arts warriors in order to free the imprisoned Monkey King.

      starring jackie chan, jet li and oh my gosh Liu Yi Fei! icon_biggrin.gif plus li bing bing too.

      trailer

      but having an ang mo kid as the main chacracter and everyone in ancient china speaking english seems kinda weird. it's going to be a very hollywood influenced martial arts film me think. icon_confused.gif

      but i'm very hesitant about this movie la.. seriously. i'm so afraid it'd be a disappointment. yet.. you can't say you won't want to watch it right?

      Put 2 of the largest Asian stars together in an action comedy may be a no-brainer, but it sure took long for someone to finally greenlight and get the project off and running. But when word was that Jet Li and Jackie Chan were to square off in a Journey to the West type of story, I guess that sent shivers down the spines of their fans, wondering who would play which character, especially the coveted role of the Monkey King. While I shall not reveal it here, it again is safe to say that like match-ups, there are obviously no clear winner, and The Forbidden Kingdom plays it safe too with a cop out of a fight between the two masters.
