The Forbidden Kingdom

Jet Li vs Jackie Chan = The Forbidden Kingdom.

Set out as a traditional fairy tale, it is a great mixture of traditional fantasy and american Hollywood. The story is seen through the eyes of an American boy, who has an interest in Kung Fu, and is immediately caught up in a traditional tale, which transports him to ancient China, where he is the profesied one to restore the Staff to the legendary Monkey king, and restore the balence to the chinese empire.

The colours are brilliant and it's an exeptionally brilliant film. It is great to see Jet Li and Jackie Chan in the same movie.

A great film for both chinese lovers and Hollywood lovers, the bridge between!

Very good Kung Fu action too!

Movie Rating: 9/10

Kung Fu Panda

"There are no accidents"

Excellent and delightful, Kung Fu Panda is a great film for all the family.

Kung Fu Panda vigorously follows the Chinese principle that there is no such thing as an accident, that fate will choose the right person for the right job, and fate chose this one fat panda to be the dragon warrior has fate failed them?...

Animation and Chinese tradition elegantly infused together, Kung Fu Panda has created a true original, mixing emotions and humor in a captivating way.

With an excellent cast: Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Jackie Chan; and a great musical score with hints of a Chinese theme by Hans Zimmer, this is a sure recommend!
