Movie Reviews of The Forbidden Kingdom
Movie Review: A Must-See Martial Arts Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
In this DVD, 2 ancient Chinese warriors must train and mentor a 21st century kung-fu fanatic who's been summonned to fight a centuries-old battle and free the imprisoned Monkey King. I agree with the blurb that this is a must see movie, the best martial arts epic ever made. Everything about this movie is excellent: its story, its costumes, its training and especially its martial arts sequences. I have seen most Jet Li and Jacki Chan's movies but I have never seen them fighting so gloriously as in this DVD. After 1 viewing one is usually familar with its story. But, it requires many viewings to appreciate its martial arts sequences. I have seen this DVD 7 times and still want to see its martial arts sequences more and more, perhaps because I am a senior instructor in a Kung Fu School and a black belt in Ju Jit Su. If you are a martial arts expert like myself, you too will want to see this movie multiple times. Otherwise, you will certainly enjoy seeing it once or twice.
