Street King is so........... not Donnie Brasco and This Week's opener Forbidden Kingdom

I just gone on my movie trip this week for Street Kings.

The Police, Crime fighting, Bribery and Dirty politics of L.A. it revolves around the Keanu Reeves Character and his Self-proclaim Street King Police Gang. the dirty Job, the unlawful bribe and the unorthodox method they use to capture or kill criminal. They are the Law Enforcer from hell.

of course, when you get a great cast like Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker, Hugh Laurie, Chris Evans and about a dozen more great character actor there's bound to be great sparks in the movie......... Not. sorry to say the story is just a bit boring. The Charactor were not as best written as Donnie Brasco nor was the story line as bombastica s Departed. It's just a plain story of the Dog eat Dog world of the continuing world of Law Enforcement Gang of LA. and the backdrop of LA represent nothing of L.A. Confidential's conspiracy factor either. there's just very little lusting factor of the movie all around. the only thing that I actually enjoy is the Cast. watching the actor going at each other. other than that, the storyline is just to much of a bummer.

This Weeks new Opener would be "The Forbidden Kingdom". the Kungfu Great by Jet Li, Jacky Chan and Michael Angarano?!? HAHA that kid? Yup you got it. He is the Protege of the movie. So almost every cast in the movie is Chinese or Japanese, Except Michael. A US kid who drop in to back drop of 500B.C China when he touch a golden staff in a chinese Temple. and in the journey he is trained and mold into a kungfu fighting genious that'd save the world. Of course there's Jacky Chan Action Comedy and Jet Li Beautiful Kungfu fighting in the Mix. and no doubt that Micheal didn't do a bad job either with every photo gallery buzzing already as the only male lead below 20 in the movie. topping every kungfu fighting master in the movie. And the Asian Community might recognize as a bit of a twist from the story of the "monkey king and the journey to the west". the movie is a very very faint reference to that legendary story or so I was told.
