Forbidden Kingdom Review
2008
The latest Hollywood chartbuster Forbiddden Kingdom illustrates the first ever onscreen teaming of the world famous martial arts masters Jackie Chan and Jet Li. The film has been directed by none other than Rob Minkoff of ‘Stuart Little’ fame. The filmmaker Michael Angarano claimed in a recent interview that he was able to learn a lot form both the celebrity stars.
The story revolves around a teenager called Angarano who was sent back to ancient China and the only way for him to return home is to free the Monkey King and who is a warrior but held as a prisoner by the Jade War Lord. He has used martial arts and it is Jackie Chan who essays the role of a king fu master and helps him in his quest. The film has been shot in China and Angarano was grateful to God for having been able to get guidance from such living legends. It is truly a film worth watching for.
