This Week on Movie

Actually I went to watch the movie "The Forbidden Kingdom" after a late night rest the day before Sunday.
"The Forbidden Kingdom" a movie with an All Chinese cast and yet it hit the jackpot this week with minimum promo. Congratulation to all the cast and company.
Jet Li And Jackie Chan an impackable duo. Kung Fu Geek will all grove with this one. the Fighting is impression and beautifully Choreograph.
The story line is simple, young and funny. of course the selling point is the perfect Jackie Chan's Comedy with action. Very few Action movie are suitable for the whole family, and Jackie Chan's is alway a joy to watch. of course the Asian audience is very familiar with the style already. some day to a point of boredom actually. This one I really able to enjoy after a long long time.
One of my friend who went for the concert told me that she think it's funny but it's pretty awkward. Because an all Chinese Star cast that speak english can come as a really kong pow series to them...... strange as it may seems I think the ticket sales will continue to rise as the movie is really suitable all round. It's funny witty and beautiful.
One guy to mention here is the minority of the gang that only non-Chinese Character. Michael Angarano, actually he is the reason I was excited about the movie in the first case. I'm glad that it's not another ABC (American Born Chinese). Michael is the perfect fit for the character. Of course my friend thinks that he's not that great, cos in the story he is not the all power hero. In fact he is weaker than the girl. but they already have 2 master in the movie. they dun need another hero they need a moderator, the kid's coming of age story and a simple innocent love story that not adult at all. So the whole movie have a family filled element. Michael again got the better part of it. he got the connection, the skill and I bet a million bugs he'll be one of those famous great actor out there with Emile Hirsch. As long as he's not addicted to the whole martial art thing. The Whole matial Art thingy can be pretty addictive to the American look at the blockoffice and you'll see how many of them are really watching Kung fu movies. I bet that Michael have great fun filming this movie in China and get to play wire work and get bitten and bruise all over. But he'll learn some martial art and stunt tricks as well. great and he get to ride a horse, like some knight only less white horse prince kinda way HAHA!!!! His life will not be the same after this for sure. The whole Teen Idol tidal wave is blooming just healthily day by day.
