Kung Fu Panda

While Jackie Chan made these styles famous, why not go beyond that and have the actual characters play it out. I am referring to the various Kung Fu Styles that one see's so often in Jackie Chan movies, Moneky style, Tiger style et all. And as seen in lot of Jackie's past movies, throw in a goofy Panda (voice over by Jack Black) who is abysmal in combat to start with and that's Kung Fu Panda for you.

So what if it's the usual dumb guy turned unexpected hero story, underdog overcoming all odds to come out trumps. Isn't that exactly what everyone longs for. Argh! Let's hope the animation and fight sequences gives our money's worth.

Movie Review of Forbidden Kingdom

Jackie Chan and Jet Li sparring against each other should be sufficient enough to make a movie a run away success. Add visually breathtaking images, engaging kung-fu and Jackie Chan's sense of humor you get your money's worth for sure. The all saving American played by Michael Angarano's character (he play's a kung-fu/karate obsessed teen) is a major letdown though. The Monkey King character played by Jet Li reminds me so much of Hanuman- one of India's most popular and revered mythological god. I am not sure if such a figure exists in Chinese mythological echelon, but if it does it is quite remarkable how different cultures throw up such similarities in their religious beliefs.
