Forbidden Kingdom, The

Even though this was not my favorite Jackie Chan movie, it was definitely entertaining. Very much worth the price of admission and the time spent being a part of this exciting fantasy. Yes, Jackie Chan does show his famous Drunken Master character, but then that is what I was waiting for. After several minutes of fighting, when he finally struck his Drunken Master pose, I clapped my hands and whispered, "YES!" The fight between Jackie Chan and Jet Li was exactly what I had been hoping for. Even though they had never fought before, they were in perfect rhythm with each other. It was almost like a dance, and the two had been perfectly paired. Jackie Chan provides almost all of the comedy, but then we're used to that, aren't we? The ending was a wonderful surprise! One suggestion... read about the legendary Monkey King before you go. It will make it easier for you to understand the plot. But even if you know nothing about that fictitious character you will still enjoy a fantastic movie. If you are a Jackie Chan, Jet Li, or martial arts fan of any kind this movie is a must see!
