The film has the tone of the great family-friendly adventure movies of the 80's, the ones that captured the imaginations of kids and adults alike.

To my surprise, however, the rest of the movie is actually a very enjoyable fantasy, a journey in the vein of The Wizard of Oz if Dorothy were a Boston teen, the red-slippers were a fighting staff, and the villains weren't disposed of by water, but by a huge, tag-team butt kicking!

Knowing that this film had a 7-minute brawl between these two icons, I was prepared to pay full admission for that one scene alone, even if the rest of the movie were total crap. If you expect me to hold a predisposed favorable bias toward a movie pairing Jackie Chan and Jet Li, you'd be right.

Reviewed by YourFamilyExpert 7 / 10 Flawed, but overall more fun than expected (and the Chan/Li brawl rocks) It was worth the long, long wait to see Jet and Jackie fighting. Nonetheless, this film deserves a high rating, primarily on the strength of Jet and Jackie, but also the wonderful new Liu. It is too bad, and the failure to bring out his potential is the greatest disappointment of The Forbidden Kingdom. Here we see only brief glimpses of his talent. Unquestionably he is capable of a fine performance, as he shows in Black Irish. Michael Angarano seems to be confined by his role as written, which is stereotyped and not too interesting or endearing. Here she is cast against type, as an evil villain, and she seems totally at home in this role, which she carries off with style. Li is better known, at least in China, where she is an established star. She is strongly reminiscent of Zhang Ziyi when she exploded on the scene some 8 years earlier. This is only Liu's third movie, but she has really come into her own with a very convincing presence and acting ability. Li Bing-Bing and Liu Yifei are two young actresses of surpassing beauty. Woo-ping has worked extensively with Jackie and in this movie has formed a solid relationship with Jet. Add Director of Photography Peter Pau (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and Martial Arts Choreographer Woo-ping Yuen (Fearless, Unleashed, Kill Bill, The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Once Upon A Time In China) and you have what it takes for an excellent presentation.
